"Cresci sob um teto sossegado,
meu sonho era um pequenino sonho meu.
Na ciência dos cuidados fui treinado.
Agora, entre meu ser e o ser alheio
a linha de fronteira se rompeu."

- Waly Salomão

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

More important than the places we visit are the people we meet. I love spending time with people and I am so grateful for everyone I meet during my travels. I think CS just brings all of us closer together. Also, since I've come back to São Paulo after a long period of travels, I want to be in touch with travelers as much as I can.
