CURRENT MISSION

I want to be the best person I can be.

ABOUT ME

I am warm and open-minded; sincere and spontaneous. But I am also stubborn and impatient. I came to Portugal eight years ago - I love living and working here. I am the proud mum of two daughters, that I raise in shared custody.

PHILOSOPHY

I am the captain of my soul.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am hosting! Might consider surfing with my daughters in the future. I regularly participate to the Thursday dinner, where I met a lot of interesting people so far.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosting several times. Each time it had been a wonderful, fantastic, experience.

兴趣

Together with motherhood, friendship plays an important role in my life. I cherish my friends and love to go out with them. I like classical and contemporary dance, cinema and music; and I am always happy when I meet people to who I 'connect'.

But I also regularly need some time for myself, alone, during which I write, read novels or listen to music. And Run!

音乐、电影和书籍

I am reading right now A man in Love by Karl Ove Knausgaard. Fantastic!
This year, the movies I have enjoyed are: Blue Yasmin, La vie d'Adele, Guillaume et les garçons a table and Frances Ha.
Music: Rock; but when I work I listen to the classical radio station Musique 3.
Portuguese Music: You can't win Charlie Brown, Noiserv, Legendary Tiger Man

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I have been to Prague with a friend of my age when I was 14, and went hitchhiking across Ireland alone at 17 (I would never allow my daughters to do that!).

教，学，和分享

I certainly have a lot to learn! Much less to teach, I am afraid. I can teach you how to do a perfect italian risotto, a good belgian pain de viande, and - for the masochists - a lot about the concept of power, institutional change in the EU and conflict management in coalition governments :).
