We are brothers of life who traveled around the world! We've met back in school and never got apart from each other. Today we are apart, however we are still chasing our dream of meeting the biggest amount of places we can! 🌎

Don't expect any laziness from any of us, we always help with everything in the house, are used to volunteering in other apps to work in exchange for accommodation and we can cook some Brazilian dishes as well! We hope we can have a great time and leave our friends around the world with a smile in their faces! 😄

We have couchsurfed New York, Canmore and Calgary in Canada and then in Hawaii on our way to live in Gold Coast, Australia. We stayed for a while working with a Working Holiday Visa and visited some amazing spots within Australia and the countries nearby!

Today Guilherme Balthar is living in Europe while studying for a master degree in Mechanical Engineering and Guilherme Calabria is working with physical education in Rio de Janeiro.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are at Couchsurfing to make new friends and meet new people around the world! We are Couchsurfing to learn about life.

The experiences we have already had through this community and by living within its spirit are absolutely priceless. You definitely can't get the knowledge we gathered on this journey anywhere else. Multiple times we've heard that what we are doing is "a PhD in life".

We hope to have a great experience and exchange what we have already lived with people we have a lot to learn from.

If you ever need a place to stay at Rio, you have already found one with us!
