I am a PhD student passionately in love with the history of Portuguese Empire and the Latin America (especially Brazil).
For the last couple of years I used to travel a lot and live abroad (mainly in Brazil and Portugal). But I do love my Poland and I am so proud of being Polish and even if I am not always here I always feel the Portuguese "saudade" (longing) towards my homeland. So if you can catch me in Poland it would be my pleasure to show you the magnificence of Warsaw.

PHILOSOPHY:

Nunca pienses ni el futuro ni el pasado, solo en las experiencias que son las unicas que te hacen vivir

Let's be realists! Lets demand the impossible! Seamos realistas! Hagamos lo imposible!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

It's what I believe in:
"Become friends with people who aren't your age. Hang out with people whose first language isn't the same as yours. Get to know someone who doesn't come from your social class. This is how you see the world, this is how you grow".
