Whoever originally created CS, thank you. Whoever destroyed it, fuck you. What uuup! I started a big adventure/life experience in November 2016, leaving Portugal to southern Argentina with no plan, only a big desire to see places I've always (or never) dreamed of and meeting beautiful people everyday :) Did some travelling in Africa, South and North America, Europe, Australia, Asia, Central America. Hoping to keep on traveling all over the world :) Studied Hotel Management, love to travel and meet new people. Love animals and the outdoors, especially beach and the ocean :) I've worked abroad and in Portugal, now following a new challenge, at personal and professional level: work and travel. I'm a people's person and always open to new experiences! Hope to be shown the best of each place I visit by my hosts, I will give you the best of me in return: laughter, cooking, sharing, talking, hanging out, partying :)
Interested in Adventure Sports
Interested in Foodie
Fluent in German
Learning Ukrainian
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
You don't get to really know a place unless you do it with the locals. Trying to avoid the standard mass hospitality places in order to get a real perspective from each place I visit. Meeting new people is the best part of the experience. I love the concept of generosity!
Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: into the wild, trainspotting, avatar, django, wolf of wall street, the beach, woman walks ahead, war dogs, barry seal, gold, dallas buyer's club, training day, goodfellas, get out Series: how i met your mother, prison break, the walking dead, workaholics, community, breaking bad, vikings Books: the beats, into the wild, on the road, shantaram, the alchemist Music: a bit of everything!
