A Brazilian in love with the Amazon Rainforest and visiting the world

I was born into a humble family in the interior of the Brazilian hinterland. My parents are the first generation of the family to attend a university. They gave me a better education and big dreams. I'm grateful to them.
I currently live in Manaus - Amazonas and I chose this city to build my life. These are the main reasons: tropical climate, welcoming people and abundance of water and life.

In recent years I have collaborated with some tourism projects in the region and I believe that responsible tourism can be an opportunity for scientific, economic and social development. The last two years have not been easy because of covid. So this year I set out on the road with the big dream of visiting the three tropical forests on the planet. I believe that with this experience, I will be able to collaborate even more with Amazon Rainforest.
My big challenge is to learn English. Today, my english is basic level.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

More important than places are people and their stories. So I'm here at Couchsurfing looking for friends and good stories.
A few months ago I discovered that I would never have the creativity and courage to take a trip like this. And in the same way I believe that I will not be alone.
