About Me

-Currently on a cycling mission through Portugal and then into Spain-

Outgoing individual, reliable, confident and aware of the interests of others.
Self-taught person who learns quickly, always motivated by the novelty that knowing new places/people brings.
Currently living in the busy Berlin where work takes most of my time and life force unfortunately.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There is no better experience of a place than through the eyes of someone who lives there or is from there. The friendships I have made through CS quickly became long lasting ones.

Interests

Culture; As a visual artist, I like to spend time contemplating, just watching as an spectator gazes a theatrical play. Any kind of human expression amuses me, from gastronomy to dance and literature, from sonnets to rhapsodies or films, going through paintings and sculpture, everything that define us as humans.
