CURRENT MISSION

Know myself and the world

ABOUT ME

Born and raised in Portugal, moved to The Netherlands (Utrecht) for a year to finish University in 2002/2003. Since 2004 I have been doing my PhD in Stockholm, Sweden.

I love traveling. I know most of Europe and now it's time to expand my knowledge of the world.

Appart from that I try to meet my friends as often as possible, which can be hard since my social network is very big! When I am alone, I occupy my time with reading and music. And I love sports. Go to the gym in the winter time and when the weather is warm enough I run around the lakes. I play football (soccer) whenever I have the chance and also tennis, squash and badminton.

PHILOSOPHY

To live one day at a time.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For now I am looking for couches. When I'm back in town, I'll be happy to host other Csurfers. I'm also looking forward to make new friends and to understand the culture of the places I visit with the Csurfing experience.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet. Heard about it when I was preparing my round the world trip.
