About Me

I'm a curious and practical girl, trying to discover more and more things in the world. I love arts and chating about lots of stuff...literature, psichology, human existence, arts and performance, music...Well, anything! Spending time with a good conversation accompanied with a good drink (from tea to red wine) is probably one of the most pleasurable things in life.
I also love when suddenly someone shows me a completely different reality that turns my way of thinking and feeling upside down!

I'm a musician, singer, recorder and clarinet player, and I'm currently quite interested in early music and also in folk music, having a few musical projects on those areas.
Besides that I love dancing (quite the unfulfilled unachievable dream of my life - maybe for the next one), I love nature, camping and being nomad, just travelling around. I hope I can do it more and more in the future.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hope couchsurfing will give me the opportunity to meet new people and new realities. Other life styles, other foods, other places, other ideas.

Interests

I love music and I've made it my life and occupation.
I like contemporary dance, reading good books, nature and ecologic subjects, folk music and traditions in general, literature and poetry, good food from all over the world, arts - knowing and discussing about them...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmm, I've no idea...
I guess all the concerts and music events I was envolved in where amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

We can share ideas about music and arts in general. I can teach you stuff about Portugal and places in Portugal and stuff related with music. I will love to know anything you feel like sharing with me!
Currently, my endeavour is to learn dutch, because I'm going to move to Amsterdam the next year.
