I'm a passionate vet student eager to learn more and to see the world. People tend to describe me as a very nice and approachable person. I was born in Canada and moved to Portugal when I was 7. I love Portugal, it a small magical country with so many different regions for you to know - even I hadn't the opportunity to see them all!
I live with my mother, my cat and other 3 dogs, we are a happy family and I'm proud of that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My first experience with couchsurfing was in Paris and I had the luck of being amazingly hosted - since then I've been wanting to do the same to other people - maybe as a way to say thank you and to allow other people to meet my country.

Interests

I love books, food, movies, traveling. I still love Disney as I loved it when I was 6, I love colors, positive thoughts, I love smiling, I love my country. I love taking Yoga classes, I love TEA!
I love donkeys and sheep and goats, I love cows, I love my dogs and my cat.
I love writing poetry. I love reading it.
I love to cook.
I love my friends and hanging out with them
I love to meet new people, new cultures and new countries :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Jose Saramago and Karuki Murakami are by far my favorite authors though my curious way of being always demands to read and to see new things - I'm always open to suggestions! :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've walked the Santiago Way three times, and each one was completely different though equally breathtaking :)
