Description
Hello!!
My name is Alessandro, I’m 36 years old. I grew up in the countryside in south Brazil. I've travelled in some countries in South America at the vacations. And later on in Europe, where I've got wounderful experiences by workaway.
Now I'm setting off a new trip through South America in a new stage of my life; to discover more about myself and this incredible world.

Traveling for me is a way of learning more about our own human condition. Through this trip, I'd like to help people, try different types of work, explore new cultures, discover new things, learning new skills and sharing it.
I also hope to improve my language skills and maybe learn a new one.
I would like to learn more about nature, and meet interesting people who can show me different lifestyles.

I'm a person who loves adventure, explore new places and outdoor activities; like hiking, trekking, camping, fishing, cycling, swimming and any kind of exploration in touch with nature. Also I'm interested in learning more about meditation, yoga, philosophy and any form of spirituality that contributes to reconnect towards Unity.

He came two days before Covid 19 lock down in March. We could not have experienced a better person to be with us until July 1. We will miss him terribly and wish him continued safe traveling and good health. He is a quiet, helpful, hard working, neat and kind person.
