We are in 4 in our family.
Me, my wife and 2 children (11 years and 5 years).
We are very hospitable, friendly and funny people who like to meet other people from all over the world.
Nowadays, we are not travelling as much as we want because of my IT company and also because children who have vacations only in December and January
We love to stay at our house on weekends to make delicious barbecue ("churrasco" in Portuguese), swim, play soccer and PS4, run with our dogs (2 border collies), watch Netflix, etc.
We also like to go to the club to meet friends, eat more "churrasco", swim in the pool and in the Paranoa Lake, practice sports like SUP (Stand Up Paddle) and jog around the club.
Yes, we like to go to the cinema to have fun and relax.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In addition to meet new people and make new friends, we also like to learn more about other countries, cultures, traditions etc.
We prefer to host someone who speaks english to make the conversation easier and also because we want to improve our english. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

"An incredible thing I did"?
I got married and we have 2 incredible sons.
:)

But seriously, when I was 25 I traveled with my brother and a friend of us for 5 months and we visited 25 countries in Europe, also Egypt, Israel and Morocco.
I am a certified advanced scuba diver, I was a rally driver for 7 years and I was a skydiver, but nowadays I'm "slower" and just enjoying my wife and sons.
We love to travel in family.
