I lived in a small town in the interior of Brazil and ended up selling everything I owned to go to Ireland with my girlfriend Laryssa, to study English and work. After my time there came to an end in 2019, we decided that it was not time to return to Brazil yet, so we decided to travel the world to discover new cultures and other ways of living.

We traveled for 6 months in Southeast Asia and then with the start of the pandemic we had to return to Brazil and wait for a long 2 years.

In February 2022 we started our trip around the world again and have been traveling ever since.

We created a YouTube channel called "Vou Sem Volta", in Portuguese that means something like "go and don't comeback", but the true meaning of this name is because we believe that when you leave to travel the world you will never come back to be the same, you will always learn every day, you will become more and more a different and better person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Nothing better than seeing the world through the eyes of those who live different realities. Couchsurfing is a unique way of exchanging experiences that has already made us meet incredible people from different parts of the world.

Through CS, we have already visited cities that we might never have known existed, we ate typical food, participated in events, and had several unforgettable stories.

Teach, Learn, Share

I really like to cook and as we are Brazilian we have lots of dishes that we can make for our hosts and learn about the main dishes from your place.

We also love photography and making videos (we have an YouTube Channel right now), so we can share our experience with this as well.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We have a lot of experiences about backpacking across the world, and of course we can chat about Brazilian culture and football, as I really love it.
