About Me

* Sorry, guys, I had to shut down hosting because I am currently in Austria *

I'm a psychologist (by diplome) and a student for life (languages and arts - spanish and portuguese [teacher license], T.I., design, social studies and what not), and I'm, currently, an exchange student in Austria. Well, when it comes to anything other than my carrer and studies, things get a little bit more complicated to put down to words. I guess it is like this for everyone, more or less. So, besides being very good at cleaning and organizing things (to the point I may annoy some close friends with my habits), I tend to keep it down when around people who aren't used to me and my neurotic personality. I can be fun - but I can also be somewhat distant, given the fact that my social battery is naturally lower on energy, compared to other people. I try not to be a mood killer, so don't worry. I'm just mostly quiet (unless when talking about my hyperfocus subjects) and I'm very honest, clean, tidy and responsible. And I really do love dogs. And cats. And music. Mostly.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I need a place (or several) to crash while I'm at Paris Lodron Uni. I know, it'd sound a lot nicer if I was backpacking around the world, but that's the reason that brought me here today... And to the ones that accept me, you'll always have a friend in me, forever. (unless you chose not to, and that's ok)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I save more spiders than the ones I kill (on accident). | Once I helped a random girl meet her idol and in the end we met 3 celebrities we were fond of because of it, completely unexpectedly. | I hosted a friend of mine that used to live in another town so she could study at my local university, for free (and she stayed with us for years. She did help with the grocery bill, tho). | I helped a friend go though a bad moment with his bipolar disorder, and in the end, we were both ready to keep being friends, but decided to go on a date and now we've been together over a year - and doing very well, not codependent, not on each other's throats, not in constant squabbles, just happy together. | I didn't make any of them, but I do have a good family (inner circle). I'm very proud of them. | I chose Queso as my pet, and she is the best decision I've ever made.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I happen to be an excellent guest, if you are looking for someone nice to deal with, quiet, clean, organized, helpful, with a good moral compass. I can also be fun at parties too, I just need to rest well before going to any of them.
