About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get the best impossible experiences that I can! Do you help me?

ABOUT ME

Hello! I’m João!;D
I was born in Porto, Portugal, but I've lived all my life in a ocean side town called Espinho!

I love to travel and I think this is the best way to get to known and discover your true self! My life journey is pursuing the next adventure, to the next culture, to the most incredible people I can meet and of course to fullfill some of my dreams on the way!

“A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles.” – Tim Cahill

I already lived in two countries, the UK and Hungary for a couple of months, and for almost eight years I've bee living in the northern of France at the borders of Belgium and Luxembourg.

I'm a fun and sociable person who likes to know new people, discover new cultures and share experiences...! I´m a very respectful, organized and friendly person!

My goal with couchsurfing is to meet the true people behind a culture! I want to know their stories, learn from them, share a coup of coffe or a drink at their place or at a local restaurant, creating new memories always laughing and enjoying life as a true celebration! Thirty years from now I want to remember my adventures not as the best moments of my life but as a endless time from where I took some things with me but hopefully knowing that I also left something good behind!

“Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all of one’s lifetime.” – Mark Twain

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This is my first time trying couchsurfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is my first time trying couchsurfing. In 2007, when I was still studying I had the opportunity to do the exchange Erasmus Program to Hungary, in the south city of Pecs! And since then I try to travel and know the most that I can!

Interests

I love all things about travelling!
Talking about everything, sharing the highest number of thoughts, experiences!

I definitely love to inhale, exhale;p, I play some guitar so I really enjoy listening, composing and playing music! Spend a quality time, go to parties, play some games, laugh,

I also love good food, but the traditional one from witch country that I visit! Good wine and good beer, of course.

And everywhere that I go I always try to find Wally...

Music, Movies, and Books

I love TV series and movies of every and any genre but I have to tell the true that I'm mostly in it for the company… popcorn’s and snakes!!!!:p

In these days, I try to read as much as I can, specially self development and technical books! I also like fiction and literature.

I'm always interested in guides and personal travel narratives (blogs, youtube channels, etc) looking for the best tips that can help me to plan my next adventure!

Concerning to music taste, I generally listen a little of everything but I'd say that I love Trance, Psyytrance and Techno and some deep and progressive stuff!!!! The most important thing is to have an open mind and try to learn with all the experiences that come to you! 'Cause life is a lesson you learn it when you're through it'.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling for Europe during my exchange Erasmus experience in Hungary visiting 7 countries in 2 months! I’m thankful that I've been blessed to see so many places that I had wanted to go to for so long.

I have always traveled alone around the world meeting amazing people, cultures and collect unique memories.

Since then, I've been truly blessed for traveling 27 more countries and making friends all around the world! Road to the next 27!

Teach, Learn, Share

Me,you, he, she, it, you, we, they! All together in a big harmony with life and the little things that she has for us!
