About Me

I'm a Portuguese young guy that just finished my studies and start working in a international organization for youth (AIESEC) in Prague, Czech Republic for a whole year!

I'm someone very friendly, positive and relaxed. I enjoy listening to music, watching movies, hanging out with friends and specially exploring places and meeting new people!

To finalize, I must say I'm also semi-vegetarian (I don't eat meat, but I eat fish) and I have asma, which means I cannot sleep in a place where cats or dogs live... :/ (although I love cats and dogs!!!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I decided to enter CouchSurfing because right now I'm living in Prague, so I will for sure want to explore all the beautiful countries around and I found CouchSurfing to be the perfect way for it, because I get to meet new interesting people and have a complete different experience that I might get using an hostel or hotel.

Interests

The best day for me is to go with friends to some new beautiful city, nature or a park... relax there drinking, listening to some music and talking about life or something super random!

I loooooove food (of course, i'm from Portugal!) and I love even people who also share this passion with me!

Music, Movies, and Books

For me I like music in general, although I really enjoy those types of alternative chill music!

My favourite movies include: The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Amelie Poulain & all disney movies!

Regarding books I'm obsessed with a Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones books)!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked as a local Volunteer Internships Director in a local office of the organization I work in (In Portugal) and I was able to send 34 young students to have a volunteering experience around the entire world!

Right now I work as the National Volunteer Internships Director in AIESEC Czech Republic and I coordinate around 12 local Internship Director so that we can send as much czech students as possible to have this international experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

Like I said before I loveeee food, so maybe I can share some very good portuguese recipes with you (who knows I might actually cook something! :P ).

I love to learn new things! Learn new recipes, crafting things or some cool life learnings, just share them with me!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I might say again two very important things:

- I'm semi-vegetarian, which means I can eat pretty much everything, except for meat (and sea food, because I'm allergic!)

- I have asma, so it means that I cannot sleep in an house or flat where some cat or dog or other fury animal lives... :/

Besides that, I'm an awesome company and person to meet! I love to chat and meet new people! If you accept to host me, I will always bring a souvenir from beautiful Prague as a sign of appreciation and I'm always up to cook some awesome food with you!
