Hi guys! My name is Guilherme Sperandio, I'm 30 years old and I'm a volunteer at the NGO TETO at 6 years old and that's when my passion for social causes began. In July of this year I quit my job as a civil engineer to try to get more involved and work in this world of sustainability. In September I won a contest that gave me a place in the "One Young World" summit that brought me to Europe and put me in touch with the greatest humanitarian leaders today! With these contacts I became a volunteer at "Global Social Business Sumit" in Wolfsburg on 08/09. So I am traveling through Europe to gain experience to implement my sustainable projects in Brazil.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in a very cool exchange of experiences that CouchSurfing can provide. To exchange experiences is good for any type of person, and makes many new friends too!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After one and a half years of work I implanted the first work of the NGO TETO in my inner city of the state of São Paulo, Brazil. There were 100 volunteers, working for 6 days to build 18 emergency homes benefiting 45 people. https://youtu.be/gQb0SPhDJPI?list=PLxvc-S1XCrzwNUSgvzXSKci1IwWbtdSvf
