  • Description

    I am a hardworking person who loves to learn new things all the time, specially if I can share it with people ready to have a good laugh (I love laughing). I am a dreamer, a bit crazy about animals ( if I had the chance I would adopt them all) and if I could, music would be running through my life all the time. I do not play any instrument (unfortunately) but I am always ready for a good concert.

    I studied Multimedia in Portugal but the wish of traveling was stronger than the dream of a career so in 2013 I left my country to start a new life in Paris. I lived there for about 3 years and after learning a new language, having different kind of jobs, making new friends and visit lots of places I decided to move to a new adventure.

    Change Paris to live in Bulgaria was certainly a bit of a shock, but faster than I imagine that country became an amazing adventure full of new friends and crazy opportunities. I learned new skills, visit lots of the surrounding countries, emerged myself in a totally different culture and my passion for traveling just grew even more.

    I after moved to Switzerland, where I worked for about a year and later that lead me to an older dream - to visit Australia. I crossed half of the world by plane, car, train, bus and motorcycle, visited 7 countries on the way and one month later I finally arrived in Sydney. I lived in Australia for about a year, did countless different jobs, bought a van, shared my life with people from all over the world and open myself to a different way of living - more sustainable, more connected and more present.

    After these amazing adventures I decided to settle for a bit so I could save some money and therefore I went back to Switzerland where I have been since 2021 experiencing different kinds of jobs and now I am ready to start traveling again and continuing to pursuit my dream of living, learning and working surrounded by different cultures.

    If you are reading this, hopefully our paths will cross and we can share great moments!
