About Me

I'm a lab researcher in Portugal. Travel was something that I always wanted to do, but that is difficult when you have your economies so tight. My top destinations countries to visit are mostly in Asia and South America.
Besides traveling, I really enjoy music and movies! Learning saxophone and harmonica as well as watercolor painting and some drawings .. trying to be rational only during the week :p

[HOUSE RULES]

This is just to clarify several small things in case I forget to explain when you arrive, based on previous experience.

¬ I live with one more roommate (male). You will be staying in our living room, which is a public room, and so that space is to be shared for everyone to feel like we are at home. Please clean after yourself. 
¬ We take our shoes off after entering the house 
¬ We don't share keys/offer copies, so sometimes your entry to the house will depend on our schedule and plans (of course we will try to be as flexible as possible). Please maintain your communication about arrival clear. 
¬ We usually tell couchsurfers that they can eat some of our food and when we prepare some meal we always make for everyone that is staying. This does not mean that we have an open kitchen! You are more than welcome to cook with us and, if you can, you should buy/brings your snacks. 
¬ Let us know if you will be needing a towel so we can have one ready. And be free to ask anything you need, we will be happy to help as much as possible, just please don't take without asking

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I consider this website a "must-have" for all types of travellers! Not only because one can meet locals when travelling but one can look for advices from locals before even starting your travel plans.

Interests

I consider myself adventurous and peaceful at the same time. Tell me stories and show me music!

Dancing, listening to music, reading a book and hanging out with friends are some of the fun things that I do in my spare time.
