I grew in Lisbon suburbs (southside of the river). Moved from Lisbon to Groningen to study back in 2008. In 2011 moved to Rotterdam and got my very first real job (welll that wasnt a huge success!), but kept on going from consultancy to university and in 2013 I started on couchsurfing.

After living what for me was my entire adult life in the Netherlands, and after more than 10 years in Rotterdam, I moved to in Dublin in October 2024 (NB: Before my job interview I never considered visiting Ireland).

Since November 2025, starting a new chapter in Balbriggan, co. Dublin!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet People , i joined first back in 2013, going to weekly meeting in Rotterdam for several years until it stopped (around Corona time).

Since 2014 going to many internacional events / couch crashes all around Europe ( a couple of times in the US)

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

Much more into music than movies or books. I wish I would have time to read more ( last book read Spring 2025: 100 years of solitude)

To give an idea of my taste in the last few insta posts I used following : Altin Gun, Lebanon Hannover, Satyricon
