Adaptable, restless and a nonconformist, working for 24 years on the 'Conquest of the World' project. With challenge as fuel, success as motivation and achievement as inspiration, time fluidly goes by! I find comfort in constant learning and the unbearable lightness of always being an unfinished work; and safety in this breaking of assumptions that I desire and try to mirror!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that a big part of traveling and getting to really now a place includes knowing the people that are part of it!

Interests

I love learning, no matter what the topic is, and I usually do it fast and with a big critical sense. So I'm a hard pleaser but an easy learner 😊

Music, Movies, and Books

I mostly listen to alternative rock and all sort of other alternative styles. I really enjoy Fado of Coimbra and more classical styles, depending on the occasion.

My favorite movie is Shutter Island and my favorite series is probably Westworld (although I find it really hard to choose, I also love Black Mirror and Breaking Bad).

My favorite book is probably The Unbereable Lightness of Being but I read a lot of different things so it is hard to compare all of them.

Long story short, I watch a lot of movies and series, I ready a lot of books, I listen to a lot of music. So probably we'll find something in common since in a really adaptable person 😊
