CURRENT MISSION Being open minded, helping people with accommodation, adding countries and cities in my personal map, travel with a bag on my back and fight against the clock. ABOUT ME An adventurous and very polite person who loves meeting new people, multicultural and different environments that loves challenges and would not hesitate to exchange experiences and get out of the comfort zone. I love cities and I'd rather go back than remember them. PHILOSOPHY Be the type of person you want to meet.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I found this network of mutual aid through a friend already launched on this sharing idea, still in Portugal. I wanted to find accomodation all around the world without major costs and taking experiences and knowledge of different people instead of dropping large amounts of money and being locked in a hotel room. Everything was successful and made sense. Have realized couch meetings in several countries with positive, enriching and sometimes unpredictable outcomes. In Valencia from Spain, Reggio di Italia and Lyon, France, to mention some examples. At this time I find myself living in Montenegro for professional reasons, fact that will limit myself in the host role even if I didn't hesitate to share my efforts. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Italy, Spain, Germany, France and Portugal.
