We are Elcio and Gabi, both 32, lived in São Paulo for 7 years but now we decided to change things. We are giving a pause in our careers and take some time to live new experiences, meeting new people, learning different things while travelling. We are doing our own path, during a round the world trip.

We left our jobs, donate or sold everything we had, grabbed our backpacks and got on the road. We might miss our family and friends, but we are ready to find new ones to share the best we have in our lives.

Reading, cooking, eating, arts, music, wine, craft beers are the best things in the world. If there is a way to improve them, is sharing with nice people. We want to see all these things with locals’ eyes, and visit places as we lived there. Let’s see what the world has to offer.
