We are a couple of two brazilians travellers seeking to meet new people and cultures and to share experiences around the world.

Our favorite and inspiring quote is: "The trail is the thing, not the end of the trail. Travel too fast and you miss everything you are travelling for". Louis L'Amour.

Our mission is to round the world in a dream come true trip! And we hope you can be a part of our dream too.

We trully believe that life is too short and we want to make the most of it. So we finally got the courage to quit our jobs and hit the world to face different cultures and realities.

We love being with friends, enjoying our free time watching a movie, running or being in the nature, travelling around and getting to know different cultures and belives. We always try to have a smile in our face no matter what situation and have fun in everything we do. Our goal in life is to learn from everything we experience and evaluate as human beings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We want to know differents countries for real. That means we don´t want to be only with the backpackers in the touristics places. We want to enjoy the way that local people live and have a good time with them, hopefully making lifetime friends that we can have in our home when we will go back to Brazil.
