Olá!🌻
My name is Iris and I'm from Lisboa, Portugal.
I've recently graduated as a doctor and before I start working in january I wanted to travel around another continent. Morocco caught my attention as a first step into Africa so here I am, for the first time on the other side of the sea!

I love to share and discover new music, dances, foods and ways of thinking and looking at the world. I'm also a performer, currently with a interdisciplinary group in Lisboa. I have a passion for movement, as I'm constantly in search of the possible relationships between the body and the world around us

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

To get to know, to give and to receive.
To enter cultures from an inside, a more familiar place. I believe human relationships forge the experience of travelling and learning, and that's what this way of moving around allows

Algo increíble que he hecho

a Vipassana meditation course

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I love to cook, preferably vegetarian food from Portugal, South America and around the world. I also do dreadlocks and I like to play games, like chess, cards or board games.
I would love to learn new dances, practice different languages (currently on a mission to re-learn french) or teaching my own

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I can help around the house, bring in food and cook for us, with great pleasure.

I can teach the basics of tango dance and yoga sámkhya.

I'll gladly share my travelling stories and my knowledge of the Portuguese culture, and also practice with you the languages I know the best :)
