CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life, and ignore insignificant things.

ABOUT ME

Hi!!! I'm Marisa and I'm 24 years old. I'm a master in Business Administration, with a major in Strategy and Entrepreneurship.
During university, I studied for a semester outside Portugal twice: one in Lille, France, and another in Bergen, Norway. Totally loved both experiences as with them I knew a lot of great persons and had incredible experiences.
I really like to go out and have fun, but also stay at home and see a nice movie/series/etc. I have several passions in my life, but two of them are travelling and football. I totally love both, doing and, in the case of football, also watching on the stadium, preferrably.
I love to learn new things every day. I believe that the knowledge is never too much. By now, I'm trying to develop my language skills, as languages need to be practiced as much as possible, so we don't forget them.

I'd better stop to talk about myself... Otherwise you can think I'm egocentric LOLOL

PHILOSOPHY

"Carpe Diem": enhance every day as it'd be the last one.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

If you want a coffee, an icecream, a tea, whatever, and you don't know anyone here, just text me and I'll join you. If you want to know Lisbon and need some guide, I'll do my best to help you. If you want to improve your Portuguese through conversation or other means, I can try to be your teacher, and you can be mine as well.
In sum, if you want a partner while you're in Lisbon for a coffee or for sightseeing or even for learning/training Portuguese, I'm (the) one option available =D

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm just starting, so I don't have any experiences yet. Anyway, I want to have good experiences soon.

Interests

My interests are really varied. I love music, cinema, meeting new persons, football and travelling. I like watching tv, reading, shopping, collecting things (such as postcards and pins), learning new things, and sports.
