Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When on the road there are no better guide then locals. The exchanging experience with local people give us the oportunity to jump off traditional turist routes and savor the real place, by it´s own unique culture and flavor.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As of Traveling: Taking my family on a 5.000km road trip acrross the Brazil South region was really amazing. It was even more impressive considering that our baby daughter Sophia was just 1,5 years old, nevertheless we all had a very good time.

Teach, Learn, Share

3 years ago I received a group of teacher & students from USA for a trip across the Brazilian Pantanal, it was a wonderful week of fishing, boat trip, and fun around the bonfire.
While we waited for the fresh grilled fish seated under the star´s light on the river beach camp, we also shared personal experiences and were able to appreciate the cultural diferences between us.
Experiences like the one I had above is the reason of our family passion for traveling.

What I Can Share with Hosts

The Brazilians are known worldwide for their joy with life, therefore I believe this is the main gift we can offer when abroad. Of course our music, culinary and history also comes along when we travel, So I could cook you a dinner with our frinds along.
