ABOUT ME

My name is Sandra. I'm a Portuguese girl! I've studied medicine at University of Porto, and know I'm working in the hospital of a small town- Torres Vedras. I hope to become a surgeon one day! :p
So, know I live Torres Vedras (about 30km from Lisbon), and time to time i go to visit my parents, in my hometown, in the North of Portugal! :)

I love to travell...see the world...meet new people, share experiences and cultures! :)
I love my friends!
I love my dog! :D
I love to host people and show them around.
I like to do dinner at my house and invite all my friends! :) I love to go out with my friends!
I like to cook. I like to eat! :p
I like a barbecue in a sunny day!
I like fun people.
I like to talk with everyone. And I like to listen what people have to tell me about them! :)
I love walking along the beach! I can not live without the smell and the sound of the sea! :)
I love to watch the sunset at the beach! :)
I love the nature...and just walk hours and appreciate the beauty of the nature.
I love listen music and play guitar (i'm still learning and I'm not very good at it)!
I love smile and laugh a lot!
I love to do jogging! :)
I love dogs!
I love flowers! ahah
I LOVE LIVING! :D

I do not like to sit still and do nothing. I'm allways doing something! :)
I don't like people who think that they own the world.

PHILOSOPHY

You only live once..so just LIVE!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started hosting people while I still was in medicine school, and I found that I just love hosting people and show them Porto...and make them fall inlove with this amzing city! :D
I like to show some tradicional places that only people who live here know where to find it!:)
If I don't have time or space to host people, I like to take a coffee or go out with them! Or I can tell them some places to go and the best way to visit this city!
I like to meet people and listen about their culture and way of life! :)
But right now i'm far away from my beautifull city Oporto... and I live in a small city named Torres Vedras (about 30km from Lisbon).
