Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couch surfing have been a great adventure so far.
I hosted my 1st surfer in Sweden and I've been hosted by a lot of friendly people in Asia and Australia.
I'm now looking to host travelers from all over the planet, listen to their stories, enjoy their company and make some new friends.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Amazing, and going up! Some of the best times of my life where experience on my 1 year travel and couchsurfing was such a big part of it.

Interests

My 3 big passions in life are: Joana (my wife), to travel and to do sports.
I also like photography and video.
My ideal life stile would be to travel around the world meet amazing people, amazing places take amazing photos and make amazing videos.
Surf the best waves, snowboard the best mountains, skate downs the best roads and see the best views.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach:
Typical Portuguese food is one of the best in the world. Don't belie me. wait until you try some.
I can teach you some Portuguese dishes and sweets.
I can teach you how to surf, skateboard or snowboard (depending on where I'm) I use to be a teacher and trainer and my oldest trainee was 98 years old, so no student is to hard for me.
I can teach you some languages as well :)
Learn:
New dishes from around the world. Things about your country or city.
Share:
Photographs, videos, music a drink in the local pub
