About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find out why I was brought to the world! And in the meantime, communicate with as many fun human beings as possible!

ABOUT ME

Going with the flow is how I live my life and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. But if you don't try, you'll never know the answer.
I'm an extremely calm person, except for two situations: heavy traffic and playing online videogames! But other than that, I could get shot and I'd still think everything's gonna be ok! :)

My forte is communication and I've worked in pretty much all areas of it. I'm currently working in communications for a startup called Erasmus Lisboa, but in the past I have been a TV host, to producer, scriptwriter, copywriter, creative, head of communications, you name it! So, if you wanna get you're creative juices flowin', my guest room is actually my idea pad. But you can check out more info about that below! :)

PHILOSOPHY

"All I know is that I know nothing" - Socrates
Live and learn, I guess.

"Weak jokes are my strong point." - Me

CARPE DIEM: The old school #YOLO

I guess you guys aren't ready for that, yet. But your kids are gonna love it. - Marty McFly

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've had this CS profile for years, but only recently have I moved into a place where I can finally host all sorts of new, cool and interesting people! I love hosting people because not only does it give me the sense of travel without having to leave my house, and you can "explore" different cultures from your own couch, but you also get to see your city from a different perspective, and start appreciating it more!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've never used CS for travelling, because I usually already know people in the destination countries, so I just crash at friends' places. It's worked out pretty well so far. Although I do resupply the fridge (it's the least I can do!)

Rollerblading
Videogames
Technology
Nights out
