I find myself more like a listener and dreamer more than a talker and doer. That's both my strength and weakness. I love to hear amazing stories and dream about the future and the world out there BUT I also have this strong need to create my own stories and make even part of these dreams come true.

I'm kind and loyal and I love dogs. I have a portuguese called Katsa together with my mother. People say that I'm calm and old-soul though I'm only 21 years old! ;-) While traveling I want to have fun, experience things, meet people (and animals), dance and ride a horse (I just need to learn that) and have good conversations. I want to learn about this world and do something useful.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I reckon that one of the biggest reasons for traveling is LEARNING. Knowledge is the most valuable thing we can have. And it's a miracle thing that it's only growing by sharing. For me it's a still mystery, how I'll use that knowledge.

I hope that through couchsurfing and hosting I get into situations to meet and talk with peolpe from all over the world, get friends, learn language and secrets of this beautiful Earth we are living in!

Centres d'intérêt

I'm a dancer and for me that means more the state of mind and importance on moving and respecting body than doing pirouettes everywhere. ;-)

I always wish I could have more hours a day. To dance, to read, to study, to meet people, to love, to dream, to help, to live. For example.

One word to describe my interests is "stories". People have always shared stories and it usually trough art and by the bonfire and dinner table. I want to hear yours! I always wish I could have more hours a day.

I regard myself as a passionate reader though I'm not able to talk about classics. One can never have enough time to read! I'll never say no to good film either.

Another great love of my life is nature. I love hiking and sitting hours on the beach and watch the waves come and go. Nature gives me so much energy and beauty in my life. There is something supercalifragilisticexpialidocious and undescribable great in that.
