Hello, I will be visiting Portugal in May along with my cousin and would love to get to know the culture, place and beautiful countryside while I'm there from the people who live there!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed with a lovely guy in Delhi, India for one night. Apart from that I'm a bit of a newbie. But it seems to be a great way to travel and see a city with insight from real people who live in the areas. It's also a really cool way of sharing experiences and life stories where you can learn more about others and so yourself too...(hopefully)!

Stayed with several people during my time in Canada. All were lovely experiences meeting a great variety of people who were great hosts.

Interests

Teach, Learn, Share
