Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently have a roomie found here, helped a guy with his car when he posted here for help... Don't know.

Interests

Music. Well, art in general. Good long conversations, glasses of wine. Riding my bike. Making plans for the future. Reading a book. Staying awake all night and go to bed in the morning. Warm beds and fireplaces. Start a new project. Have to confess I like smoking, i really like it. Dogs! Oh, and days off, love days off.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Roadtripped from Portugal to Germany, and woke up to the magnificent vision of a sunrise over a wheat field waving in the wind in Spain, thanks to my friend who took turns with me at driving. Then later on, when we were lost in France in the middle of the night, an owl, white as a sheet, flew right in front of us for a few seconds, vanishing in the darkness afterwards.
Finally, on the way back, smoked a cigarette on the pirinees, overlooking the mountains, and contemplating how much world there is to see.

Teach, Learn, Share

João Bernardo's resumee

I'm an expert musician. I can teach people a few chords.
I once managed to fix my car's headlight. If anyone needs a help pushstarting...
I'm major pain in the ass. I could teach Angermanagement 101, practical.

Other than that, I can tell you stories from what I've lived. Maybe, if you're lucky, you can learn from my mistakes.
