Overview
About Me
I was born and raised in Portugal, but I have been living in Australia long enough to call it home.
I'm a freelance computer programmer, investor and masseur. I work at home and I'm usually always available on evenings and weekends and sometimes weekdays.
I'm a young spirit, very affectionate, social, respectful and easy going. I enjoy the simple things in life, and I try to make the most of each day.
I try to eat healthy but don't have any special dietary restrictions. I try to have an active lifestyle in general. I love the outdoors specially sightseeing and bush walking.
Some of my beliefs...
What goes around comes around. Spread kindness and good things will come to you.
We all share one planet and we should take good care of it.
A stranger is just a friend that we haven't met yet.
A hug makes everything better.
The human body is a beautiful thing and nothing to be ashamed or afraid of.
Our freedom ends where other people's freedom begins.
As a host...
I try my best to make my guests feel comfortable and enjoy their stay as much as possible. I try to take my guests sightseeing whenever possible, offer massages, share meals and have great chats. And if there's anything that I can do to make your stay more enjoyable, just let me know.
I want open minded people only as I'm quite open myself. I want my place to be a safe space where everyone can be themselves without judgement.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love meeting people from different cultures and share stories. It's also nice to have company at home since I live alone and work from home. I also love showing guests or other visitors around.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most amazing thing that I've done was to get in a plane to move to a country on the other side of the planet and where I knew no one at all... And I don't regret it a single bit! :-)
Teach, Learn, Share
I quite enjoy having intelligent conversations where I can teach and learn. I know a bit about many things and I can easily absorb what others have to teach me.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'm not a great cook, especially out of my environment, but I'll definitely help with the cleaning and any chores I can help with. And I can always offer my massage skills.
