About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Let the world change you, then you can change the world!

ABOUT ME

Living my life 100%!

Don't like too much to describe myself, but here are some adjectives that might give a better idea of me: chatty, sensitive, caring, hyperactive, polite, mobile, curious about anything, love to laugh and spend time having a tea and discuss!!

PHILOSOPHY

Even if it's a cliche: CARPEDIEM!
Enjoy the present, without worrying too much about the future and meaningless matters, life is too short! Experience everything as if it was the last time!

Love this philosophy, you do so many things when you think like this!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hopefully I do participate in being part of the network! Going to meetings, giving new ideas of activities to do in groups, hosting, showing around CS, surfing more and more couches!
I think I also participate in keeping this network clean, I mean I do not take advantage of CS just not to pay any room, but I'm part of CS because I love to feeli like being part of an international community, making my friends jealous about my experiences abroad!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only positive experiences!
I surfed in France, and I learnt so many things about the bask part of France (language, food, history!!)!
Surfed in Portugal, ate great food and went to the beach at night, thks Jair ;)
Surfed in Denmark, at Thomas'place, a big international CS flatshare during 4 days, cooking and going out together, amazing!
Hosted some German and portuguese people who became friends!

Interests

Travelling (especially wine tourism), Drama Acting, Cultural discoveries, understand why french are so not perfect, swimming, going out to have a drink or watch movies, drinking tea and wine, riding bikes in cities!
