Hello!
What about me? First of all, I'm very curious : interested in pedagogy and theatre, I like different forms of literature : novel, poetry, cinema, or music (!)I am also particularly interested in human sciences : philosophy, sociology and neuropsychology (regarding to education sciences ). Furthermore I have a great interest for social or political issues such as migration, land-use planning or housing policy and so on. Usually joyful, I love to dance, sing and going down to discover or rediscover trees, plants or may be lakes, architectures and lands... So I'm interested by geography (or poetry) and history (or tales). Well, I'm very open-minded and I enjoy meeting new people, travelling ( by hitchhiking) and understanding everyone's culture...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's so good to meet new people, is it?

Actually it allows to (really) meet people travelling at the same time, and conversely better knowing regions/cities as you're really meeting people from those regions/ cities.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was in Barcelona and I was fifteen... I was with friends (when travelling with high school) and we had a bit of free time. Firstly, going down on a transient place, we decided to create a figure together (eight friends), and come to a standstill .
Two tourists passed in front of ourselves and I did a singular movement. In this moment, tourists asked to take a photo from our group, it became very funny!
We were in a place where street artists were dancing or practicing other arts.

I can teach portuguese, french and a little italian.
Traditional dances as collective dances or valses, dancing at two.
Flute (especially transverse flute).
