Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
if life gives you lemons ask for salt and tequilla.
ABOUT ME
above all i enjoy the little things in life so all is about pleasure.
the music, the books, photography, friends, my pets, my house, long conversations, tea and chocolate, whatever makes me happy. i love the sun and beautiful things. art is a big part of my life (although i'm a wreck at every aspect of it).
i'm curious and outgoing so i truly enjoy the knowledge experience no matter if it's people, places or things.
and apparently i have an opinion about anything and everything. i talk too much.
PHILOSOPHY
if your going through hell, keep going. *Winston Churchill
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
i tell everyone about how awesome it is being able to go places and always have a friend to show us around :)
I travel like Rolf Potts !
You are a travel legend in the making, with a sense of adventure that will lead to hundreds of fascinating stories. Locals all over the world will give you special nicknames, and almost all of them will be complimentary.
What type of traveler are you?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
i got into this world thanks to a friend and since then i've taken my time to get to know things about it.
usually i surf my friends places but i have hosted and loved it. meet some really great people thanks to couchsurfing (some became dear friends).
It helped settle in london and meet people that made my stay sweeter. Eventually I even met my boyfriend in a couch surfing related event. So yeah, I really like it :)
Interests
is it shinny? is it kitsch? can i buy it for close to nothing? is it absolutely useless but cute? is it old and crappy? then yes, i will be interested in it.
also photography and psychiatry. it's my p&p thing.
latelly i've found a new interest in sun, dry and warm weather. can't quite say why but it's something i found out since i've moved to london.

Music, Movies, and Books
love to read and listen to music.
personal favorites in music would be nick cave, queens of the stone age, sigur ros, radiohead, smashing pumpkins.
authors would be fiodor dostoievsky, vladimir nobokov, douglas coupland, josé saramago, eça de queiroz and much more.
i'm trying to read as many books i can in their original language and love to buy old books. a good day means i got a great book, in an awesome edition for pennies.
and just love to sing along although i suck at it. and when i say i suck at it i really mean it. for your own safety don't indulge me.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
i'm all about the little things :))
but there's one hug i got from my nephew on my birthday that gets the first place as the most awesome thing i've ever experienced.
Teach, Learn, Share
i'm willing to learn almost anything. as long i have someone to teach me, i'm into it.
right now trying to learn russian...(not going that well)
teach...well there is always the language (portuguese) and random facts about whatever.
