CURRENT MISSION

Knowing people to understand the World I live in

ABOUT ME

I confess that I am a bit shy, but just when you first meet me. As long as you get to know me, you'll see how outgoing I can be. I love laughing, talking, sharing stories but first of all I am a listener. I enjoy all kinds of activies and adventures. And when it comes to learning a new thing, just call me out loud... All types of arts and sports draw my attention - music, theater, drawing, painting, ski, swimming..

PHILOSOPHY

"I believe that if one man were to live out his life fully and completely, were to give form to every feeling, expression to every thought, reality to every dream - I believe that the world would gain such a fresh impulse of joy that we would forget all the maladies of medievalism, and return to the Hellenic ideal - to something finer, richer, than the Hellenic ideal, it may be." Oscar Wilde

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurf allows me to get to know people who I would never meet otherwise. It's an exchange between life stories and a place to sleep, a beer and smiles, a walk and experiences. And sometimes it's the start of a long-term friendship.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are just so many things I could write here, but climbing the Sinai and my moving to India were the most amazing experiences I have ever had! The Sinai showed me how small I was compared to the Universe I was gazing at above me. India taught me about how to live with differences, respect them and learn the most from them. What a colorful country!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Portuguese and how to be a good planner. I can also explain a bit of what I know about human behavior, game theory and economics. Since I am a curious person, so I am willing to learn anything.. Right I would love to learn how to play an instrument.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My stories of my adventures around the world, a bottle of wine,
