About Me

= IMPORTANT =

Please ready "My home" section

I host people for fun, because I like it.
Please keep in mind anyone who hosts you is sacrificing some of their personal space for you. It's not hard to make it a good experience for both parts, it's just about sharing and giving - when both parts give both come out richer ;)

If you want to come and go as you please, to sleep until late, don't send me a request.
If you have a friend in town or want to do your own thing when I have free time, don't send me a request.

If you want to know me, share a good conversation, culture, language, stories, jokes, get advices about Porto, have fun, go out, share some meals or bottles, you are welcome to stay with me and I'm sure we can turn a mere touristic trip into a great experience and a new friendship :)

About me: I don't like being still, don't sleep a lot, love to play games with people, going out, talking about my City which is the best place in the world - I can go on and on about why :) - and I never get tired of visiting it. Each time I see it I fall in love with it again!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I mostly just host people, as I rarely travel.

Hosting allows me to meet many different people from different places, and what I find wonderful about CS is that with each person the experience is different. Every. Really.

Interests

Like every other person i have a ton a stuff in this life that i like doing... i like to play some songs in the guitar, although i don't do it often enough; i like being with friends, talking, playing, drinking, walking, whatever.... And sometimes just playing stupid games!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I know that everyone allways picks grand things to say here, but i honestly feel like one of the greatest moments of my life was riding my faculty's float (in a traditional parade) through the main avenues of my beautiful city wearing the tradicional costume, with the most awesome buzz ever. You can say what you want about outlandish experiences and breathtaking landscapes and monuments... i don't belive any moment will ever top that one for me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Portuguese.
I can teach card games like Дурак, Sueca, and the best drinking game of all time.
I can teach things about Porto and maybe even Portugal!
I can teach some songs in the guitar (i don't play that well myself so i can relate :P)
I can share my knowledge about everything, food and wine.
