***NOT HOSTING NOW. Meetup only*** Freelance remote worker, language teacher, yoga practitioner & Reiki energy healer living out of a suitcase! Lived in : 🇯🇵🇮🇪🇪🇸🇬🇧🇹🇭🇮🇳 🇳🇱 Now in : Lisbon, Portugal 🇵🇹 I just love Couchsurfing! I’ve met & made so many wonderful friends through this CS all over the world! It’s really great concept and I truly appreciate it. If you feel the same, we will “click” each other immediately. Let’s meet!

CURRENT MISSION Travel, and meet many people as i can :) ABOUT ME I love life, i just wish i had more time to meet more people, try more things, and do a lot more stuff. My friends are always saying that i'm always with a good mood, and it's kinda true. Normally i just see the good things that life brings to us, i always look to "the bright side of life", i know there's always a sun shining for all of us. Some friends are always saying that i'm a very lucky guy, even thou i wouldn't call it luck, i believe we can do a lot about our destiny. I don't believe that all things go as we want and that we do our destiny. But, i saw it as combinations/probabilities: i believe that we can get the best chances to our side if we do something for it. For the other hand my father is always telling me that "the world is not going to end tomorow!" because i feel constantly a big urge to do things, to be active and when im really into it, i do it and i give it all. Anyway, mostly i love to travel&meet people, make friendships all around the globe and keep in touch with people after, not just meet and bye forever, gather knowledge, learn learn learn, talk about travelling and adventures, share experiences. And especially people that open my horizons, that show me a diferent and original way of thinking and living, normally..i will get in love by those ones. I have two Blogs if you want to check/add to newsletter @ Traveling blog www.pedropadinha.blogspot.com Traveling in Iran www.bazarpersa.blogspot.com PHILOSOPHY Live your life as if there is only one time for you to enjoy it. (just in case, don't trust reincarnation!)

CURRENT MISSION Basing near Byron Bay for now - learning a lot about life by being more still. Usually... intuitively traveling while working with a few key beloved humans to make manifest good outcomes across digital currency, cannabis medicine, finance and so on. Often up for adventure, mystery, beauty and candour when not in a reflective-creative space. ABOUT ME I flow freely most of the time, try to hold multifaceted perspectives, and commit strongly to learning (around) and contributing energy to whatever is beneficial, vital-alive and otherwise fascinating to me. Every day I'm remembering more about why my stardust meat skeleton cluster came here, and what wants to live through it. It's been a colourful ride thus far... PHILOSOPHY Communicate with honesty and compassion. Challenge and evolve mental models that don't serve. Live in alignment with truth, teasing one's edges. Heal oneself and support the growth of others. Be adventurous and foolish. Have fun and indulge consciously. Balance surrender and action. Share adventure, energy and wisdom with all people. Crack and sometimes break what appears possible in this reality.

I DON’T HOST ANYMORE AND I AM NOT IN ERICEIRA! To sum things up: I have lived in Norway, Czechia, Poland, Estonia, Panama, Germany, Lithuania, Spain, and Portugal. But I have been living back and forth between Spain and Portugal since 2014, except a brief period in which I lived in Lithuanua. At the moment I’m in Guatemala for a few months and will go to Panama for a few months in may. I’m back in Guatemala and I AM NOT IN ERICEIRA! CURRENT MISSION find my happy place ABOUT ME (this is what my old profile looked like. it took me a shitload of time and effort and these cunts came and eliminated the HTML tags: http://tinyurl.com/ronsoldprofile) I was born at a very young age, I think once upon a time in my life I was a chubby cute baby. Years went by and I met a Spanish hitchhiker that helped me discover that I had a thumb and how to use it... been hitchhiking ever since. I HATE TRAVELING! No, not really. I only wanted to say that because everybody states that they love traveling on their profiles. of course I love traveling, why else would I be here? I have a love/hate relationship with almost any kind of junk/street food. I love alcohol and I love to go out to the pub very often, fuck me right? According to my mum, I'm a good boy. I'm shy and quiet and it's very difficult for me to start a conversation. But once you get me started I can talk for hours! I'm a kid trapped in the body of a... kid . I have no idea what I'm doing with my life and I don't take it so seriously. One day I decided to start traveling, that day was back in november of 2009. I have traveled in Central America from North to South and from South to North a few times. I spent 6 months in the States. I have been in Europe basically since 2010 except the most part of 2012 when I traveled Latin America having finally hitchhiked two boats between Panama and Colombia (and back). I spent a year in Estonia taking a well deserve break from traveling and waiting for the right time to start traveling again, which was in december 2013. I didn't want a cold winter so I decided to go to the sunny South of Spain and for the first time in my travels (not even when I go back home) I unpacked my stuff and store my backback. I stayed in Granada for 9 months. I left middle of September to go back to the Baltics, Vilnius, Lithuania to be exact. Went back in "Graná" for few months but went to live in the South of Portugal. Lagos to be exact. After a few months back home, I lived in Ericeira, Portugal. San Sebastián, Basque Country. Sagres, Portugal for two years. Ericeira again. Sevilla. Lagos, Porto, and Raposeira, Portugal. Ericeira again. At the moment in Sevilla, Spain. Will go back to Lagos later 2024. I've worked in hostels in Czech Republic, Poland, Estonia, Germany, Panama, Spain, Lithuania and Portugal. I also volunteered in hostels in Guatemala, Nicaragua, Colombia and Spain. And according to my references, I...... love hitchhiking. For me it's not just getting from point A to B for free, it's a lifestyle. Every time I hitchhike I'm more convinced that the world is not a complete waste. There's still kind people willing to take you and share with you expecting nothing in return. And also, it's amazing how much useful/useless information you can learn. I don't have very good GPS skills, therefore I can wander around, will get lost and explore.I'm an explorer that is always smiling but can bring something new to your life. Since I liked to watch the Discovery Channel, NatGeo and The History Channel, I do quite good in pub quizes. I'm so generous I can share my toenail clippers with you. I'm very patient, meaning I won't get angry if you ask me a 31,764,913 times how to say "traveling" in spanish. Just in case, traveling = viajando. I was fast in gaining my sea legs which means that I can be helpful when you give me a ride in your sailboat! I can go out party adequately and could be bottled and sold in pharmacies as a boredom remedy. PHILOSOPHY The best plan is to have no plan at all I guess there's only one way to find out... Qué hora es? Give love regardless of what you receive Be courteous to all, sociable to many, close to few, friend to one and enemy to none.
