CURRENT MISSION

Well, last 2 years i've been away from couchsurfing but now i decided to return.

First of all, read everything in my profile (specially "read more" button located above this text ☝️). Couchsurfing it's much more than a "free accommodation" APP, and sharing a house requires some responsibility and respect, so it's important for both (host and couchsurfer) if we know a little bit about each other 😉.

Be an host and help travellers is now one of my current missions. I really believe in counchsurfing as a sharing experience: cultural, gastronomic, experiences and even friendship. Difference didn't makes me feel unconfortable if both parts respect each other. I prefer solo travellers but i accept every kind of people: white people, black people, couples, friends, homosexuals, hippies, fancy people, whatever

My other current missions are:
- Saving money to travel Next year for a few months;
- learn yoga;
- buy a van to live the vanlife.

ABOUT ME

I lived all my life in small city (Costa de Caparica) sourrounded by beautifull beaches and close (11km) to one of most interesting european capitals to visit - Lisbon.

Costa de Caparica is the perfect place for those who would like to Stay close to the beach (best spot for surf near Lisbon) and not fare away from Lisbon (30 minutes or less by bus).
If you just want to visit Lisbon and hang out in Lisbon, Costa de Caparica isnt the best place for you.
But if you want to visit a local place where you can relax near the beach, visit Lisbon (or even Sintra) during the day and its not important for you to meet Lisbon's night life (it's Nice but to return to Costa de Caparica using public transport during the night could be a little bit harder), this Is the place.

I'm a nurse and i work in a surgical center during the day (usually, Monday to Friday between 8am-4pm).

Next year i Will start to BE a tour leader in Philippines (and maybe other countries).

HOW CAN I DESCRIBE MYSELF?

Well, to BE honest i think i'm a very normal person.
I'm funny,
polite, easygoing, friendly, open-minded, and i try to be helpful with my couchsurfers giving them some tips about Costa, Lisbon, Portugal or how to getting around.

I like nature and i'm a animal lover. Currently i'm becoming flexitarian (eating less meat and other animal products) and i believe we should avoid or decrease human impact in our environment - unfortunately we are killing our planet.

I'm a person with huge thirst of new experiences, new places and cultures.
