If you host me, I am the kind of human that will always pay back in double if you allow me to. I always try to bring you a thank you gift at my arrival and pay forward. That's the surfer I am, I am not here to freeload, I am against that mindset as I'm lucky that I can afford to travel. Although, I won't offend your offers if you insist on them either, as I am just a sharer at heart too. I will help with cleaning, cooking and all other tasks, I always clean after myself!! I am very friendly, a bit loud, as I am from Porto after all! I'm full of life, at times, a force of nature. I am a happy being, and as I like to see the positive side of life in everything, I've learned to have balance and control. I adore to connect deeply with other humans. Although, I, too, need to recharge, so at times, I can be a quiet soul too. I love to learn, that be all new things but especially to listen to other peoples stories and perceptions. I am very open-minded and real simple/humble, and I'm complete with little. I have moved to my Portugal farm in the Serra da Estrela mountain. That will be my base whilst I'm not travelling or freelancing in England. Let's have fun! ðĪŠðððĨģððĨðŧððš

One Amazing Thing I've Done
In a nutshell, it's been to bring up my 20 year old daughter on my own without any family (I was foster cared). All of this while moving between 3 different countries with her since she was 6 months old. When I hit 30 years old, I changed careers from finance to nursing and haven't looked back since, I'm now 39! During covid, I purchased a small farm in Portugal highest mountain, and I would like to receive backpackers, while I too travel the world myself. I've worked as a festival emergency nurse touring the English fests all over the summer. I'll continue to attend some events in the years ahead ð

What I Can Share With Hosts
Good company and lots of stories and topics to talk about. Love walking anywhere for long periods. I enjoy walking around old town centres historical sites but I prefer nature spots or hiden out non turist sites. Although, I am really into urban exploring abandoned buildings!! Due to this I've seen some amazing out of this world places such as Chernobyl âĢïļ
My Interests
Finding new music, homeopathy, farming, anatomy, biology, nature, astronomy, physics, technology, books, series, movies, documentaries, conspiracies, etc. I love to wild camp and challenge myself to survive with little. I hunt with my crossbow and I love to be put out of my comfort zone. I could just spend the rest of my life walking around the world while wild camping!
