Capeverdean history

Always dreamed about living like an Islander? Winter escape? Experience the unique life in Cabo Verde, while enjoying refreshing dips in the sea, hiking, learning the local language creole and local dances. Divided 50/50 when 50% of time is for co-working and self-exploring the places(Tuesday-Thursday), the remaining 50% is about sharing and having fabulous adventurous (Friday-Monday). As a Capeverdean born and raised, my main goal is to share the hidden gems and secrets of my country. With a team made of locals that will help me to maximize this experience, allowing you to feel what we call Morabeza. Morabeza is a word from Cape Verdean creole that is used to express Cape Verdean hospitality, as realized by the friendliness, casual and relaxed behavior of the Cape Verdean population and its culture. We will do that on the Cultural island of São Vicente while sharing a local dish, visiting local markets, inviting locals to share their stories, music, dance. And we will continue on an island hop to the fabulous hiking island of Santo Antão. Where we get to experience one of the best sunsets and mesmerizing landscape. I will also share with you local dishes recipes and the story of my islands. Mediation, Stretching, workout are part of my routine and I will welcome you to join me.

About me: I am Capeverdean born and raised wanderer. Also, a Portuguese citizen, currently based in Budapest and a remote worker. I’ve been always mesmerized and in love with Cabo Verde, over and over again the islands fascinates me. This unique feeling that I get when I am there is what I want to share with others. In 2020, I brought my first group of friends to show them Cabo Verde. It was such joy to observe them learning and loving the islands that since then, I’ve been waiting for opportunities to bring more people and get them to experience the same. As a software engineer, I have the opportunity to work remotely. And as I am also a big traveler and passionate about creating events/hosting, I see JoinMyTrip as the perfect combo. I am a constant learner, curious about culture and people (I do want to hear your stories), learning and practicing mindfulness, I am also into sport and active life, but I also can’t miss my mediation.

Accommodation: The accommodations will be taken care of to be comfortable, private and have internet connections. The ideal place is to have one rented house with a cozy shared space where we can gather for Sunrise yoga or a drink at the end of the day. As well as a kitchen to share some local culinary experience. Where we can have our own space but also have shared moments throughout the day when we are working. Let me know in the Q&A section if you have any questions!
