About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Stretch our income to travel as much as we can; take a bit of what we see in us after

ABOUT ME

We like to travel, visit new places and meet new people, so we may get to know different ways of living and perspectives. So far, we have mostly travelled by car (cheaper) but on the long run would like to go to south america and new zealand.. We are both quiet people but after a shy start, we´re actually quite talkative.

PHILOSOPHY

To make the best of what we are granted; to see the most of the world and to keep growing as people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Our couch is available for those who want to come and meet lisbon. Our place is in 10 min walking distance from the subway that will get you to the historical center.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have only hosted until now and it has been a very nice experience. It´s funny how even when you are tired (weekdays) you immediately replenish your energy stores when you get home and have someone there :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Alex loves Dave Matthews band. Raquel loves ska music (Mad caddies, street light manifesto,..). We both loved little miss sunshine and the motorcycle diaries. Books, it´s harder.. The kite runner and The book thief, 3 quarters of an orange and American Gods are some of the more recent books we really enjoyed.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Some things that bring you closer to nature and to your limits are pretty amazing.. such as trekking in the mountains, skydiving; snowboarding just after it had snowed.

Teach, Learn, Share

Raquel can teach you to rollerblade; Alex will love to share some photography tips with you.. if someone could teach us to surf (we´ve tried for a long time and even have the boards), we would be very grateful!
