I grew up in Itamonte, a small town in the middle of "Serra da Mantiqueira", mountain range at south east of Brazil. It is definitely an amazing place to live in. It's quite and safe, nice culinary, specialties only made in the State of Minas Gerais. Hospitality defines the people here. I had studied english for six months in South Africa. Got the chance to be living in South Africa and have gone to Namibia for a 4x4 adventure in Sossusvlei National Park. My roots is in Russia. My fiancee is about to finish her studies at unirversity and come to live in Brazil, we use english to talk to each other. English is my passion as well. I am up to host those who are visinting the small town, specially the Itatiaia National Park. If you don't speak portuguese and spanish and want to visit the Itatiaia National Park, I will host you.
