Hi. I'm Patricia. I've lived in a small portuguese town, but full of history, known as "The students' city".
I grew up in a rural area around Coimbra and I think I couldn't ask for a happier childhood. I studied at University of Coimbra over 5 years.
Currently, I'm in China. I worked as a pharmacist in community pharmacy in Portugal over 3 years, but recently I left my job in Portugal and I came to China, where my boyfriend is working. Despite being pharmacist, I'm still trying to realize if this career completes me. I think getting just one job during our whole life is boring. There are so many things to do and so many things to explore all over the world that if you don't try them you will never realize what you really like.
Currently I'm working online in my field of study.
I'm an easy going person, dependable, open minded and so grateful to have everything I have. I like to meet new people and discover new places. I love sports since I was a child.
Well, I hope to discover the world and myself for the rest of my life. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

At the moment, I'm in China and I want to travel around China and another asiatic countries.
I love to meet people with different cultures and languages and I love to share my culture, my lifestyle and my beautiful country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sleeping every day with a clear conscience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some words in portuguese and if you want to improve your portuguese (if you are learning), I will help you. If you like to cook, I can teach you to cook some portuguese dishes.

I need to improve my english skills, because I speak portuguese everyday, so I feel that I need to practice english.
I'd like to learn spanish (I understand but I don't speak well) and if prossible chinese as well.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can show you two portuguese cities: Coimbra and Figueira da Foz. Coimbra is known as "The student's city", it is a city with a lot of history. Figueira da Foz has many beaches. Probably, I will be able to show you another city too, called Aveiro.
In addition to cities and , if you like to meet places far away from the crowd, you'll like to see what I' ll show you.
I can cook portuguese dishes if you want.
Basically, I will help you in everything I can. :)
At the moment, I can't host you because I'm in China.
