About Me

We are a couple from Brazil, who has lived in France, Spain and now Germany! Even though we are not huge fans of couples using the same profile, Couchsurfing is an exception, since we will be traveling together!

Next month, we will leave everything behind to make a dream come true: a one year trip around Africa!! We really hope we can meet you in our way!

Clara

I have the hardest time writing about myself! But I will try...

I love to meet new people! I love to hear about people's lives and see how different (but at the same time how similar!) can we all be. I admire people who are authentic and live life by their heart. They are very hard to find, but can always teach a lot!

I like to practice yoga and lately have been trying meditation! Do not think that I am a calm person! Hahaha. But I will get there some day!

Até breve!

Alain

Hey, my name is Alain and differently from Clara I am more kind of a practical guy. I love sports in general but my favorite one is by far football (of course, I am brazilian..)

I believe that travelling is the one of the best ways to get in contact with people from different cultures and ideas. For me there is no better way to learn and open our mind to the different.

I can talk for hours about my passions: politics, economics, sociology, sports, food (pretty much everything :P) while we enjoy a beer, tea or coffee!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"There isn´t anyone you couldn´t learn to love once you´ve heard their story".

Life is about meeting new people and learning through their stories. That is it. Nothing more or less.
