IN A WORLD TRIP!

Hey, I am Catarina (she), from Portugal and I am Davi (he), from Brazil, together we are the couple @Zimbora.Viajar (you can check our Instagram).
In 2021, we quit our "9h to 18h life", left all the comfort behind and “hit the road, Jack!”!

We spent one year around Africa and a little bit of Middle East and now we are exploring Asia for 2 years. Couchsurfing gave us many beautiful interactions and we made some friendships that we didn’t believe it was possible. So if we send you a request, probably we want to be your friend 😂, besides the fact we need a place to take a little rest.

We love meeting new people, making friends, understanding different cultures (we make A LOT of questions), trying diverse food etc. Our purpose is to evolve as human beings and sometimes have a couple of 🍻 of a cup of ☕️.

Just if you want to know a little more about us (or we can tell you in person)👇

🇵🇹 Everything started in 2018, when we met each other at the company we used to work for.
💌 It was definitely not love at first sight. It took us a while to start talking to each other but once we did, we never stopped doing it anymore, until we realized we were sharing a life.
🌎 Moreover, we found out that we shared a lot of dreams and that the biggest one was to travel all over.
🎒We started travelling around Portugal, then Europe, then America and now we are doing a world trip.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We believe Couchsurfing can give you experiences that you won’t find anywhere else.
We had amazing experiences in the last 1 year and we learned a lot. It is hard to put in words how amazing the journey gets with Couchsurfing and how many great people you cross paths with.
Yes, sometimes you find people that you don’t really connect, but this is part of trying and it is all good!

Music, Movies, and Books

Catarina: I love calm music that help me to relax like Bossa Nova and Jazz.

Davi: I can go from Red Hot Chili Peppers to Andrea Bocelli in a blink of an eye. I play the guitar and now I am learning the Ukulele to play on the road.

We are also big fans of reading, especially books of self improvement and mindfulness.

We prefer real documentaries over movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travel 1 year in Africa was an amazing learning journey for us!
Also traveling in a motorhome is definitely one of the most exciting things we did together (we want to repeat one day).

Teach, Learn, Share

We love sharing and chatting, so from a lot of amazing stories until our culture and traditions, we are up to share and talk about.

Davi can also teach a little about playing guitar and Catarina can teach some Portuguese.

We can also discuss about marketing, sports, healthy habits and the power of your mind.
