"I rather collect stamps in my passport than stuffs in my home!"

In case I don't answer you here on time please, feel free to drop me a message on my Instagram: @ssilassouzaa

I am a brazilian living abroad for 3 years now. I am a former salesperson, and I worked in cruise ships traveling around caribbean and mediterranean sea. I love to meet new people, make friendship and learn about their culture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that we have to trust and help people who likes to travel. I know that most expansive and stressfull thing when we travel is where we gonna to sleep, so in this community I can help people to stay in my place when they come to Portugal and hope to be helped as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- I think the most exciting thing I've ever done was traveling for 2 years on a cruise ship.
- Make a tour by myself in a jungle in Jamaica (detail, I didn't know the route, I just decided to hike).
- Come to Portugal by myself. I didn't have anyone here.
- Scubadiving in the Bahamas.

Teach, Learn, Share

"If you are not humble enough to sit down and learn, you are not capable to stand and teach." I love this quote and for me is one of the greatest truths of the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a great listener and also love to talk and discuss several different topics. I love cook, so will be more than satisfied to make some traditional food from Brazil (where I am from) or Portugal (where I am living for some years by now). I can guarantee to spend a really good time, with good and easy conversation and most important thing, exchange culture, and experiences.
