About Me

CURRENT MISSION

make the world a better (looking) place

ABOUT ME

I guess I'm a pretty easygoing person, who loves traveling and loves hosting all my international friends at my place for the summer. When traveling you get to see really beautiful places, but it's the people that you travel with, the people you meet, and the stories they share that makes the whole experience unforgettable!
I moved to Asia at age 9, so I was lucky enough to start traveling at an early age. Coming back to Portugal I just had to keep traveling and cris-crossed Europe by interail several times.

PHILOSOPHY

Responsible Hedonism. Get your kicks without stepping on other people's feet.
