ABOUT ME

My name is Catarina Santos and I have 22 years old. I'm born in Coimbra and grew up in Penela, small village near to Coimbra. At the moment I'm studying sports in Guarda . I love to travel and this passion has since when I was 12 years old, I traveled by plane for the first time .
I have a good sense of humor, energetic, adventurous, courageous, laid back, always smiling and wanting to make other people smile. I love meeting new people, experiencing and learn new things. I am the type of person that can have fun no matter what I am doing or who I am doing it with.

PHILOSOPHY

"The only easy day was yesterday"
"Happiness is only real when shared"
