ABOUT ME

I am portuguese, but like to thing of myself as a citizen of the world. I have recently graduated from medical school in Coimbra, a wonderful student city, and enjoyed every minute of it. In the future, I hope to be the best doctor I can and go back to my hometown in South Africa and help with issues related to AIDS in infants. At the moment I am in Japan doing a clerkship in the hospital of Kobe.

PHILOSOPHY

I have to agree with couchsurfing motto: changing the world one couch at a time.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed a few couchs with friends around europe while in Erasmus, and loved it. I am hoping next year I will be able to host. I am looking forward to finally give back to other people so much kindness I have experienced with CS.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All the experiences have been totally diferent but all worthwhile. And I think that is the great beauty of couchsurfing, discovering how other people can be so different(and so the same) from us.

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

There are some'wow' moments in my journeys: Tokyo by night, Bridge in Mostar/Bosnia, Croatian sea, Rome's little streets, Berlin street art..

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I can teach you portuguese and english. I know about Portuguese culture and traditions.. I have travelled a bit, and my family is kinda of multicultural so I have some stories to share. But I must say I think I am a better listener than speaker.
