About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Gathering money for a half year trip!

ABOUT ME

I have my mind totaly opened to the world around me. It´s not about who I am, it´s really about to where I want to go.
Veterinary surgeon, good comunicator, apreciated
colleague and friend, party fan and sport´s man with a litle bit of insanity in the mix.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life is either a daring adventure or nothing" Helen Keller
To hesitate on the small insanities is to condemn the big dreams

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurf is currently one of the most important, and fun, parts of my travelling. It brings the most human part to the journey. One thing is to visit the places, other is to know how the locals feel about where they live, the deep social and cultural knowledge that they can transmite is priceless.

Interests

The big love of my life is Bodyboard!Along with some friends we had a online magazine about this sport and way of life.
I´m really in on sports. I´m a bodyboarder, a total enthusiast of bike ridding, a beginner in tennis and rugby, shoot some rounds at paintball, I go regulary to the gym, jogging every now and then.
I have a big interest in cience, especialy biology (particulary Vet ciences), physics and astronomy.
I am a proud member of VETuna (Tuna da Faculdade de Medicina Veterinária da UTL) that provides the best academic spirit, party time and, eventually, some singing! You can check it at http://vetuna-fmv.blogspot.com/ .
This is coming too long now, but it´s hard to leave so many things out. To finish, just wanna say that I am also a voracious reader and I love films with sad ends.
