My name is Leon Felippe, I am Brazilian and I am 24 years old. Working with social and digital communications since 2009. I also work as a volunteer in poor communities, working directly with children, teaching art projects.

I am passionate about nature and animals. I love to go hiking, meeting new waterfalls, beaches and mountains.

I like traveling, meeting new cultures because we left our comfort zone. I believe that to achieve peace we must learn to relate to all people, cultures and religions, regardless of physical boundaries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As of January I will be traveling throughout Brazil and South America. My intention is to develop voluntary social work, working with children, disadvantaged communities and environment.

Also I have interest in meeting new people, customs and cultures, avoiding the traditional tourism where only the positives are presented.

I believe that couchsurfing will be essential to achieve my goals on the trip.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe that we all have characteristics that we share with others.

The learn that I have had in poor communities of São Paulo is something I want to share with others.

Also I work with digital communication and social media is something I can also teach.
