I'm a professor in a small school and a part-time tourist guide in Lisbon. I'm an alright kind of guy, picky with socks on the floor but fine with puke all over the toilet so long as I ain't in it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been on couchsurfing before, hosting mostly. Back then it was a nice experience and I don't see why it shouldn't keep on being nice now that I have a home to share with weary travellers. This is a nice way of being positively surprised by strangers and to meet new and interesting people. I can never forget how much I enjoyed learning curse words in every language from here to Proxima Centauri.

History, politics, sports except for football (sorry) and making fun of Darth Trump, Emperor of the World-that-Was-Nuked.

Music, Movies, and Books

Two Steps from Hell and The Prime Cronus crews usually make stuff pump faster in my veins, weird like that; Pandorum for the creeps and Cloud Atlas for the feels; & The Man in the High Castle and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?. Sci-fi savant and all

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Although I wasn't the one driving it I managed to survive a funeral van crash during Carnival after which I went fishing.

Teach, Learn, Share

Since the first thing I like to learn is about culture that's usually what I provide the most when it comes to teaching. Portuguese gastronomy, history and nostalgia might be fun to experiment and learning the same of other cultures is what I live for.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good company; histories, stories and tales, and plenty of laughter. I tend to be an easygoing person who doesn't snore too much.
