About Me

Hello there!
I’m a Portuguese Biology teacher, mother of two lovely kids.
I think I'm a good cooker and I enjoy receiving people.
Unfortunately I'm a little bit busy, but I’ll find some time to receive, here and then…
I recommend you Guimarães as one of the prettiest places to visit in Portugal (I love living here)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I had a few friends in CS and always felt interested in its “philosophy”. Now that my kids are a little bit bigger, I decided to join the group. Just recently accepted my first gest. I hope I´ll find the time to receive more and to start travelling more, too, using this groups friends (and their houses :-).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My kids (that´s what all mother say :-)

This is probably not that amazing but while I’m teaching, I hope I touch my students in what comes to environmental education, respect for our planet and their humanity.
If I do that and that may help improving a little our existence in the planet, I think I´ve done amazing things

Teach, Learn, Share

Everything! ( positive things) :-))

What I Can Share with Hosts

I know my town well, so it is easy to show it around and tell it´s histories, but I also understand that hosts must have time to be on their own, experiencing the spaces. I think I can find the balance in that.

My house is only one km from town center - you can go walking.

Countries I’ve Visited

France, Scotland, Spain, United Kingdom
