Hi! I'm a Portuguese, from Lisbon.

I was on an exchange program in Thailand last year. I'm studying engineering. I love to travel that's one of the reasons I've chosen Southeast Asia for my exchange

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people that want to share their country, culture, food,... We can exchange stories, experiences and many more.
I'm currently travelling in Asia and I think one of best ways of knowing more about such a different culture is to be with people that live there.

Interests

History, culture, diving, travel, basketball, football, listen to music, hanging out, videogames, ... Every country that I choose to go to it's because I'm interested to see the local culture and history (if it connections to my country even better) I also like to eat and taste new food. I don't remember denying a dish that often so I can eat almost every weird thing. I like to play team sports and watch NBA or football

Music, Movies, and Books

Hip-hop, rap, electronic, rock, alternative, reggae, old or new generation, ... Basically every kind of music if it isn't annoying, like reggaeton (I'm tired of hearing that...).

I've red a few books, like the Harry Potter's or history related books.
I watch a lot of movies and series. My favorites are probably Inception and the Ocean's Triology.
I've also seen all of the James Bond's movies when I was a kid ahah
