Program Details

We’re mainly looking for native English speakers interested in a language exchange — we’ll help you with Portuguese while practicing English together!

During your free time, you can relax by the pool 🏊, explore our safe and peaceful city, or enjoy the many attractions nearby: beautiful beaches 🏖️, hiking trails, a water park, water sports, pubs 🍻, and rural landscapes.

Our home is close to gyms, supermarkets, bakeries, restaurants, pharmacies, and local shops, making daily life super convenient. You’ll also find here the second largest oceanographic museum in the world! In the neighboring city is Beto Carrero World 🎢, one of the top attractions in the state, surrounded by stunning beaches.

We’re only 40 minutes away from the airport and major cities like Balneário Camboriú, Itajaí, and Joinville. You’ll have a private room with your own bathroom, TV, air conditioning, and heater. The room is separate from the main house, right next to the pool — offering privacy, comfort, and a peaceful atmosphere.

We prefer a balanced and healthy diet, avoiding fast food and fried foods, but we are NOT exclusively vegetarian.

We love dogs 🐶, but we already have three small ones in the backyard, so we cannot accommodate additional pets.
