My husband Antonio and I have just finished building our house in the mountains in Brazil. It was the craziest and most difficult project we embarked on, as it was completely DIY (and we had no experience whatsoever). Now, we decided to take a trip to Europe to cool off a bit adfter so many months of hard work. We both work online.

We are very active people. We met in my very first rock climbing experience. We both love climbing, hiking, trekking and cycling (we have cycled 1200+ km in Patagonia, Chile/Argentina) and did a backpacking to Mexico, Belize and Guatemala together.

In USA we bought a minivan, converted it ourselves (no previous experience \o/) into a tinyhouse on wheels and will be exploring the west coast for 6 months.

We are looking forward to meet new people and have a wonderful time!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Of course we need a shower every now and then, but what is the most important about CouchSurfing is the people we meet. We dont usually travel to sighseeing only, we travel to see how life is in another places and by the shoes of people who live in that place. That is why we travel, to understand a world different of the world we came from. And how better to do that than meeting locals?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I like to think that I do and mainly see amazing things every day! Every sunrise is a miracle!

I have also cycled for 1200km in Patagonia, swan with whale sharks and built my own home inside a minivan and also a real home too!

Teach, Learn, Share

Life is like a box of chocolates:some are crunchy, some are nutty, some are sweet, some are chewy, but all are delicious in their own way. Without each one, life would not be complete.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Joy! Antonio and I are very optimist people! We can also teach you some portuguese!
