Hey, I’m André! I’m new here in Couch Surfing and I'm just loving it 🛋️ + 🌊 = ❤️
Well, a little bit about me: Bikes have been my passport since early in life. When I was 22, I crossed South America on my first bike trip, and the passion never stopped growing. Since then, I’ve pedaled through stunning places like the wild winds of Patagonia, completed a full bike loop around New Zealand, explored Europe for a year by saddle and kindness, and recently returned from my biggest adventure yet—three unforgettable years cycling from Alaska all the way down to Brazil.That long crossing turned into a book called Transeunte, where I share stories, lessons, laughter and the everyday poetry the road gifted me.I truly believe the best part of traveling isn’t only the places we reach, but the people we meet, the unexpected conversations, and the homes that let us pause, breathe, and belong for a little while. That’s exactly why I both travel and host with deep respect for space, rhythm, and kindness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe the best way to truly understand a place is through its people. I’m looking for a genuine way to meet locals, share stories, and see the city through the eyes of those who live there.
