Ricardo, 24 years old, curious by nature.

Love travelling but essentially l love to meet new people and know their stories.

Oh, and I like to do what locals do when I am abroad instead of just going to every tourist place there is .

One of other things I love is new adventures , So I am always after something new and fun. So if you are looking for a crazy mate to go in a trip like hitchhiking or going to the mountains (eventhough I have no experience) send me a message!

and last but not least , I like TO HAVE FUN !

Philosophy :

Well , to be honest I would put here lots of quotes I like but I will keep it simple and maybe if we meet I can tell you others , or someday I will make a list.

"Live and let live" - Don't know just feels cool and a bit of my way of thinking.
"Life is not worthy without smiling and without friends" - Didn't know if I read it somewhere or just came from my head , but I guess you understand ! :D
"In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years."

Always up for a beer !

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

Oh , I love the concept and I really believe we are here for people and to have a great time . No point in being alone , I like to know other people ! :D And when you meet with other people and start sharing stories, most of the times you realize someone already did something you are planning to do and you get super excited or in the other hand you had similiar experiences and you talk for hours about that and it feels AWESOME!

And because you don't find those secret awesome places by yourself being a tourist , you need someone local , and someone to share them with !

Musica, film e libri

I like a little bit of everything . Most of these topics I have not a concrete answer. I listen to a song and I say if I like it or not . Same for movies.. But 80's rock / music is always good!

Books - Well , I read a lot of different things but one of my favourite ones are about detectives and crimes. (Agatha Christie). Trilogy from Stieg Larson . Loved to read Harry Potter aswell when I was young ! And everything else that comes to my bedside table. Jeffrey archer, 7 books , took me a few days to read them all , I guess I can say I liked them also.
