About Me

I am a portuguese landscape architect currently living and working in Salem, Massachusetts, USA. I grew up in a guest house in Sintra, Portugal, so I have friends from all over and I love to meet people from all over the world too.
I love to travel and also to show my home town.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started Couchsurfing when I was in Germany for ERASMUS because I met some couchsurfers there who introduce me to this awesome initiative.
I have been a lucky person that was able to make connections from all around the world since I was a kid and I do think that kind of experience should be affordable to everyone. If I can I'll continue helping people to travel the world.
