Description

Hi!

We’re Maria and Eduardo — two close friends, 19 and 18 years old and university students currently living in Portugal 🇧🇷🇵🇹. Maria is originally from Brazil and has been living in Portugal for the past four years. We are both starting our second year of university studying Engineering. We have just done our Interrail adventure across Europe, living meaningful experiences and truly connecting with local life through Workaway.

We’re both very adventurous and curious, always ready to help, learn, and dive into new experiences. We feel most alive when we're surrounded by nature — hiking, exploring new places, or simply enjoying fresh air. We also love discovering different cultures and learning from the people we meet along the way.

We each bring our own strengths to the journey. Maria is especially passionate about animals and has lots of experience volunteering with children and in community projects. She also loves teaching and currently gives lessons to kids — sharing knowledge and creating meaningful connections is something that brings her a lot of joy. Last year, she stayed with a host family during an Erasmus program in Ireland, which deepened her love for cultural exchange and living like a local.

Eduardo is very hands-on, positive, and adaptable. He enjoys cooking, cleaning, helping with tech, and is always happy to contribute however he can. He’s great at creating a fun, respectful, and collaborative atmosphere. He speaks both Portuguese and English fluently and is excited to take part in his first Workaway experience.

We’re especially interested in short stays (up to 2 weeks) in places like Italy, Croatia, Greece, France, Austria, Switzerland, Slovenia... but we’re open to wherever this journey leads us! :)

If you’re looking for two easygoing, motivated, and reliable people who are genuinely excited to help, learn and connect — we’d love to hear from you. Let’s make this a beautiful and meaningful exchange! 😊

Plus de détails sur les langues qui m'intéressent
We love connecting with people through language and culture! Like we said, we’re from Brazil and Portugal — so Portuguese is our native language, even if we have fun comparing our accents and expressions! We both speak English and a bit of Spanish, and we're always excited to learn more. We’d be happy to help others practice or learn Portuguese or English. More than just teaching a language, we love sharing our cultures — from Brazilian and Portuguese music, food, and traditions, to stories and everyday life. And of course, we're just as curious and open to learning from others wherever we go!

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

We’re both excited to share a bit about the skills we can bring!

I, Maria, love working with children — I currently teach kids and really enjoy connecting with them through play and learning. I’ve also done volunteer work, especially in projects involving children and local communities. I love caring for animals as well. I’m creative, empathetic, and love helping out with languages, especially Portuguese, English and some Spanish too!

And I, Eduardo, am very hands-on and practical. I enjoy cooking, cleaning, and helping with general maintenance or tech-related tasks. I’m the kind of person who’s always ready to jump in and solve a problem or support in whatever way is needed. I’m adaptable, calm, and like to keep a positive and respectful atmosphere around me.

Together, we make a great team. We’re responsible, curious, and always open to learning something new. We’re happy to help with a wide range of tasks — whether it’s around the house, looking after children or animals, sharing languages, or just bringing good energy to the space.

Autres infos...

We love good conversations, long walks, and discovering new places — especially through local food!

We enjoy cooking (and eating!), and we’d be happy to share some Brazilian and Portuguese recipes.

Some of our favorite things include taking photos, doing yoga, listening to music, being in nature, and watching good movies.
We also love sharing stories and learning from the experiences of the people we meet.

We’re open-minded, friendly, and always happy to help where needed — and we're really looking forward to exchanging experiences, knowledge, and good vibes along the way!
