I love to travel, I know 19 countries and 2 continents, but would like to travel around the world someday, I love learning other languages, even not knowing yet speak fluent English. I enjoy meeting new cultures and new places. I have a degree in finance, but have always worked in IT. I start a blog in http://sanderlei.com.br and in 2016 I began my GAP year and I want to reinvent myself this year, and nothing better than meeting new places and new people to discover myself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love people and they are the reason I travel! I want to have experiences with people around the world. I want to give back while learning a new language and enjoying a slower pace to life. I like the community that can be built with couch surfing. I want to have friends all around the world. I absolute love seeing a place from the eyes of someone who lives there. I love sharing about my culture and learning a new one.
