Description
I'm a 32 year old brazilian living in Portugal. I love sports (Tennis, running, boxing, squash, paddle, stand-up paddle, hiking, etc ), photography, outdoor activities and learning more about different cultures and languages. I also like to get to know people's life experiences and different points of view. I have a small business back in Brazil (I manage it from a distance) and I also work here in Real Estate. Since I've been here for just a few months I wanna get to explore more of the surroundings, study new languages and cultures and estabilish new connections around the continent.

Help
We are 5 brazilians sharing a big apartment with two bathrooms. As we work all day, we need help cleaning the house (basic cleaning) and cooking at night (not everyday). So you'll have lots of time for yourself.
If you have one hour a day to clean the house and 1 hour more to cook with us, (while practicing english and/or russian and french with me) and sharing your culture, then it's perfect! We'll help you out by giving you a bed (in a shared room or a private room depending on the availability), meals and weekend trips to Lisbon and the surrounding areas.
If you need we'll give you a ride to the boat station or to places you need to go before we all go to work or after working hours. We all work all day and all week but we have lots of free time during the weekend (all day) and at night during work days. I'll share with you our happy and open brazilian culture while living as an expat in Portugal. So if you enjoy photography, architecture, travelling and trying different kinds of foods, you're welcome. Only two of us speak fluent english, but we can find a way to communicate.
We live in the south margin, in a quiet neighborhood near the Tejo river, at a big building, near a supermarket and a beautiful park.
(You can enter the apartment at any time. We'll be sleeping if it's too late, but you can get yourself something to eat and use the bathroom freely and get into your room - we just ask you to keep the noise a bit down because we wake up early).
*We have to check the availability of the room before accepting guests. Send a message and we'll reply as soon as possible!
