We are Santiago and Maria Luiza, and we share many dreams — dreams we would love to share with you too. We are simple people with a big desire to welcome travelers wherever we may be. As travelers ourselves, we have received so much kindness and support, and with that same spirit, we want to give back. And when that’s not possible, it will be because we’re out on the road, living and sharing beautiful moments.

Maria Luiza is from the countryside of Brazil, where she grew up surrounded by beauty and lots of love. Santiago is from the Colombian Andes and is also Brazilian — he grew up between both countries and carries a deep love for his continent.

The house is small, but the heart is big. Welcome.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Being here is a great gift, it has been since the fist hosting and traveling experience using this platform, that allowed us to meet lovable people, that we still carry with us. We hope to continue bringing the same joy to others that come through our home.
