I work in data analysis for a football club — yes, I look at numbers and pretend they’re goals. When I’m not doing that, you’ll probably find me getting choked (on purpose) at Jiu Jitsu, taking photos of everything, or lost in a book pretending I’m in another century. I travel to meet people, explore stories, and occasionally escape Excel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because meeting locals, sharing stories, and seeing a place through someone else's eyes beats any hotel lobby. Also, let’s be honest — the money I save here goes straight into more trips!

Music, Movies, and Books

Big fan of movies that leave me emotionally confused (thanks, Almodóvar). Musically, I swing between psychedelic rock and “what even is this genre?” — Pink Floyd for the soul, Mac DeMarco for the vibe. As for books, I read them to feel smarter and to justify ignoring my phone.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve somehow ended up in the front row at a Rolling Stones concert, appeared in a TV commercial, and even played gigs in front of hundreds of people — and they stayed!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can cook traditional Portuguese dishes, teach you some tunes on the ukulele, and keep the conversation flowing – so basically, I’m your grandma, your bandmate, and your podcast host all in one!
