Hi, my name is Marcelo and my traveling and adventure partner (a.k.a. my girlfriend) is Nandra. We are both 24yo brazilians sharing the same dream: to backpack together from Brazil to Australia. But there is no need to hurry, we just wanna enjoy the ride!
We met during a work exchange in Morocco in 2019, where we taught English and French to local community children in an NGO. Thereafter, we maintained a friendship for 3 years which, in 2022, evolved into a relationship.
We both love traveling, meeting new people, partying and getting to know new cultures. We had been backpacking for a while before the Covid-19 lock down and now it's time to get back on the road.
Nandra has a degree in international relations, and she has one year of experience working in the field, and now she works as an event and music producer. While I have a diploma in civil engineering, with one year of experience in the field, but now I work as a designer and tattoo artist.

See you soon!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We have been traveling in Brazil together during 2022 as digital nomads, and now, after the whole pandemic lockdown, we're ready to set off again, this time towards Australia!
We hope to meet you on our way, it will be a pleasure to hear your stories, share ours and support each other with whatever is needed.
If there are any questions, please let us know!
