Description

We are travel content creators who love nature and authentic experiences. We were born and raised in Rio but Lisbon was our home for the until october 2022, when we decided to go on a round-the-world trip.

My passions include spending time by the sea, learning a new skill, watching documentaries and series, studying History, Photography and Marketing. I am also into plant-based cuisine and healthy habits.

Fellipe loves exercising and is a crossfit and kite surfing enthusiast. He likes games and is crazy about sci-fi. He loves cooking as well. He is very hands-on and learns really fast - that is his superpower. He can also sell anything.

At the moment I work as an online educator. I designed a method that helps other travellers plan their trips around the world in a sustainable, affordable and meaningful way. It is called Plano V and it gives our travels a special purpose as we can use our experiences to help travelers from our community.

Fellipe works with me and together we also have a Youtube channel and an Instagram account.

We have had three amazing experiences on Workaway: we spent 20 days in a Hotel in Altenberg, Germany, 20 days in a guesthouse in Thun, Switzerland and 30 days in a Kitesurfing School in Las Terrenas, Dominican Republic. We contributed in the kitchen, gardening and with maketing, respectively.

All of them were memorable and our hosts were amazing people, extremely generous and caring. I can say these experiences changed us for life.

Now we are in Asia and can't wait to contribute with other communities and projects.

So, if you are a host, be sure that we are highly motivated and can't wait to start.
