Hi there! We’re a Brazilian couple who have been living abroad since 2016 and are currently on a sabbatical (@isalecotrip), traveling the world full-time. So far, we've visited over 50 countries — always curious to connect with people and explore places loved by locals.

We're both vegetarian, and our favorite way to spend time is cooking, sharing stories, and having meaningful conversations over a good cup of coffee (we're a little obsessed!).

Professionally, we come from tech: Isabela worked as a Social Media Specialist and I was a Project Manager.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We’re passionate about learning new ideas, understanding different cultures, and sharing interesting stories over a cup of coffee or tea. Couchsurfing is, for us, the best way to truly connect with people around the world — it turns strangers into friends and makes every journey more meaningful.

Music, Movies, and Books

I played bass guitar in a metal band for over 10 years. But I love rock music in general and also enjoy learning about local music from other cultures. I also love books about travelling, culture and biographies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been to over 39 countries so far, and I consider travelling the most extraordinary and transforming experience I could have as a human being.

Teach, Learn, Share

We've worked for the two of the most famous coffee shops in Dublin for 2 years, and we would love to teach how to brew a great coffee.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can share stories about our trips and about our own country. Also, we could to cook a vegan meal for them if they'd like to.
