We organised a big couchsurfing meeting for the end of May. Thursday was a national holiday, so by organising events for Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday people still only had to take 1 day off from work or studies. Belo Horizonte is more or less in the center of Brasil, so people wouldn’t have to travel so far. Of course the biggest groups of people came from Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paolo (these two cities have the biggest communities in CS in Brasil). That said, we also had people coming in from Bélém, Salvador, Maceio and even Manaus. If you’re living in Brasil, you will know how special it was to have people from that far away coming all the way to BH “just” for a cs meeting. More after the jump…
