About Me

CURRENT MISSION

feeling a world citizen

ABOUT ME

I'm trully addicted to traveling, and I love to share experiences.
I've been born and brought up in Lisbon (Portugal), studied for a semester in Milan, lived and worked 4 years in Aalborg (Denmark), and now I moved to Stockholm.
I like outdoor sports and be in contact with nature. Traveling is one of my biggest passions, and I enjoy to be part of an international community, meet people from different parts of the world, and learn about different cultures.
Living in a different country than the one I've been born makes me feel a citizen of the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Discovering myself by learning other cultures

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

While I was living in North Jutland, Denmark, I wanted to host as many people at my place as we could handle, it seems it was not the most popular place for traveling. Here in Stockholm, unfortunately, I need to be a bit more selective, but the experiences continue to be great and ever more interesting.

The best part in meeting CSers elsewhere is the very personal experience I get from each city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I like to host and visit friends, friends of friends, and new friends that I hope to meet here - that's the best way to get the most of traveling, and also have fun and gain experiences while just staying home and having people visiting me.
