About Me

Currently doing a Hitchhiking trip with my friend, Ricardo !

We plan on going to Europe starting on the 15th of July and we are trying (not trying, we will get) to Brussels on the 9th of August. Thumbs up , a ride , lots of stories, and different people is what we were thinking when we thought about the trip. If we drop you a mail it's because we read your profile , we liked it and we think we can learn with you and teach some things aswell. Not just for the couch or to go to every tourist place but yet to see your country in the eyes of someone who lives in it and to enjoy a funny afternoon or a night talking.
