I was born and grew up in beautiful Lisbon. Travelling is the sort of thing that's always been in my mind, growing up (so have books, and being in nature) and I've been fortunate enough to have a good set of adventures - to be continued.
After finishing medical school I worked for a year in the Azores, which was an amazing oportunity to explore the islands, take a break from the city and host some couchsurfers - in one word, it was incredible. And in 2019 I moved back to the mainland, to Porto, where I'm doing my training in Infectious Diseases.
-- Right now, from April to June 2022, I'm living in Genova, Italy, doing a rotation as part of my training. Very excited to finally be in Italy and start a new adventure!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

The best moments in travelling for me have either come from amazing nature or from the incredible people I've met along the journey, and sharing in their routine, thoughts and beliefs. I've felt so welcome in most of the places I've been to, now it's my turn to give you that warm welcome too! :)
