Description
Since one of us started to travel around South America as a volunteer, we decided to give a retribution to world travelers. Our family lives between two cities, Belo Horizonte e Ribeirão das Neves. Since not all of us can meet the world, we wish the world to meet us in a more expressive and immersive manner. We want to welcome you into our family, with arms wide open.
We're four people.
● Diego (Didi): Oldest son. Traveling around South America for more than a year. Thanks to him, today we're hosts.
● Neuza from Mutum: The family's mother. She needs to do dialysis three times a week at the hospital.
● Arnaldo (Zé) from Araçuaí: The family's father. He gives all his time to his family since he retired.
● Jhonatan (Jhony): Youngest son. Lives in the same property, but in a different house.
We're guardians of a funny pet dog called Abnára, some fruit trees and a small garden.
What do you think about being part of our family?
* Three of our hosts only speak Portuguese.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Ideal place and opportunity to practice Portuguese and meet the lifestyle in this part of the city. The great BH is made of people who came from various rural counties. Although with limited formal education, they have a vast and deep knowledge and the will to share it. In this area of the town, we have plenty of water clubs, restaurants, bakeries, banks and so on.
You can easily take a bus and visit a variety of attractions in the city, otherwise, you may use our bicycle as well.
