One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've travelled from Rio de Janeiro to Buenos Aires by car (3.000 km) in winter and it was really nice to see the cultural differences and accent changes, in brazilian's border and argentinian's as well as the cities passed by. It took me 4 days to be able to drive and of course also stop in beautiful cities that were in my way. It's just not the same when you just get on a plane and go straight to some place!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn new languages and get in touch with other cultures. It's really amazing to talking about travel experiences, it's funny things and what we've learnt from it all!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I really love trekking (do it almost every weekend), playing guitar (I can teach if you want), and going out to have fun. It's really nice to me to show so many beautiful places that I know in my city that are far from the basic "Cristo Redentor" and "Pão de Açucar". If you love nature and simple things like I do, just send me a message and let's meet up!
