Hello surfer!
My name is Eric from Canada. A year ago I was ready to embark on a national tour across Canada. Promoting nature-based solutions to social isolation and cyber addiction was the main purpose of this tour.

Things have changed a bit since the beginning of the pandemic.

I chose to make Portugal my new home.

AND NOW

As the founder of Digipause, I am bringing my set of expertise in wellness & digital detox and multidisciplinary background to the Algarve. Creating all year long getaway for clients looking for places to free themselves from digital distraction with custom-built wellness "à la carte" experiences, is what I am working on at the moment.

I believe in the healing power of nature, social interaction and culture exchange.

CARPE DIEM!
I believe that what goes around comes around.
It is my everyday's philosophy of life.
Day after day..
With kindness, compassion, and respect for others.
Not always easy!

Good things always happen to you,
when you give to others the same in return.

A simple but very accurate though on the nature of compassion.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
By learning more about life and human values towards other's point of view.

Over the last few years, I have been touring mainly by bicycle in various locations around the world.
Traveling is a unique privilege to meet and learn from so many different cultures.

CS is by far one of the best ways to connect with people.
It is a great asset for building real and long-lasting relationships.
