(I am so sorry but this year I am not accepting guests due to personal issues. Hope to get back next year!)

I live in the country side, 20km away from the city center of Leiria. Check more details about how I can host you in "My home". Thanks!

I don’t like to start with my job, but I pass so much time around it that it is impossible to escape from it (and I actually enjoy it!). I am a doctor, a trainee anesthesiologist that works in Portugal.

I would describe myself as someone friendly, peaceful, open minded and huge nature lover. I am a very curious person and I believe that my favourite hobby is to learn new things in general. Water is is definetly my element and I love to explore all the ways to be as close as possible to it. I am a very basic surfer, love snorkeling, had a few lessons of sailing and want to take a diving course this year! Yey!
I also love to learn languages and cultural things.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love some directors like Tarantino, Almodovar, Inarritu, Yorgos Lanthimos, Lars von Trier, Xavier Dolan, ...

I can appreciate a wide variety of musical genres. I would say that I try to avoid the mainstream low quality stuff, because I really value well done music. But I respect all styles and tastes! Some of my favourite bands: animal collective, james blake, jamie xx, fred again

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Made my own totebag’s brand to earn money and go to Timor East to start an education project on health and environment

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about the amazing portuguese culture, and many other random things!

Also, again, I love to learn everything!
