My name's André and I work as a local tour guide in Porto and as a host in Airbnb, Booking and Homeaway.
I graduated in tourism and history, always following my passion: cultural tourism. Nonetheless, I also work as a part-timer as a researcher, writing papers and articles for local newspapers, concerning several aspects and themes. Portuguese, English, Spanish and French speaker, I'd love to show my city to foreigners and learn different cultures. Giveth and taketh, life's short to be wasted, so why not finding new people?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since I work in the tourism field, why not providing things to do and to show in Porto? I speak 4 different languages and I'd love to find and make new friends throughout the world.
