ABOUT ME
Well, recently joined so..not much time / patience to fill the profile yet. Not that these little boxes will tell you much about me anyway...
But ok... some facts: I´m portuguese (this tends to happen to people who were born in Portugal), 30 years old, and currently working as the in-house lawyer for an international Company - hate it! (Hope my boss isn´t in the couchsurfing network).
I am an easy-going party lover but I do appreciate of a good read and a long talk.
Well, what more can I say? Want to know me? Meet me. :D
PHILOSOPHY
One morning I shot an elephant in my pijamas. How he got into my pijamas I'll never know.
The Keeper of Sheep II
“(…)
I have no philosophy, I have senses…
If I speak of Nature it's not because I know what it is
But because I love it, and for that very reason.
Because those who love never know what they love
Or why they love, or what love is.
To love is eternal innocence,
And the only innocence is not to think…”
Fernando Pessoa (in my awfull translation)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Having returned home from my travels, I'll try to return the favour by hosting my fellow Csurfers.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My experience with CS was short but intense. I went to N. Ireland and Ireland recently and was hosted by the most hospitable and fantastic people you could ever imagine! I tried my best to be a good guest...
Interests
I like good literature, cinema (doesn't matter if it's good or bad), tango, bath (that thing with water, not the english city), music, travelling, meeting you (yes, You!). History - just loooove history. One of the resons I can be a cool guide in Lisbon.

Music, Movies, and Books
I guess I'll skip this one. Too many stuff to put in here.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've done preety amazing things in my life. But that elephant did many many more.
Teach, Learn, Share
This is the bottom line, right? What do you have for others?
No easy answer for this one.
Apart from the zillion useless things I can teach you, I can try and show you how through simple gestures we can make this world of ours, a better place.
Oh yeah, and I can cook pasta. Gourmet pasta that is. My italian friends would disagree but what do italians know about pasta?
