TRAVEL LEADERS

João Cajuda

CEO, Líder de Viagem

João Cajuda is well known for his travel blog. He is passionate about the world, traveling, people, new cultures and flavors ... He has been fascinated by the unknown since childhood and realized early on that he was born to explore. He prefers the jungle or deserted beaches to the massive tourism of big cities. In 2014 he created his travel blog, joaocajuda.com, and ever since then he’s been going abroad in the constant pursuit of the enjoyment of life. He likes to capture moments and landscapes with his camera and to share their essence in videos and photos. These days almost half a million people follow his adventures around the world on social media. He is also a Tour Leader and takes travelers to get to know his favorite places on the planet, always with that fun and relaxed vibe that we’ve all grown accustomed to.

Leonardo Coelho

Líder de Viagem

Leonardo grew up in Lisbon where he graduated in Medicine. He also studied in Italy and Germany, where he took the opportunity to travel around Europe. After completing his degree, he worked as a doctor until he decided that this was not the lifestyle he wanted. He then devoted himself to one of his great passions, languages, and began working online as a freelance translator, which allowed him to travel long-term through Southeast Asia and South America. These days he lives in Lisbon where he is a local tour guide as well as a LEVA-ME Tour Leader. Good mood and a spirit of adventure are guaranteed on his tours.

He graduated in Architecture in 2002, having started working in this area until 2010, the year in which he chooses to dedicate himself as a full time job to his great passion for photography.

Sorte in English means "Luck", and it's my name, smile of heart and dreamer of Alma, I always liked to breathe freedom and fly over curiosity.

I inspire and "breathe" people and cultures and my mission is to leave the world better than I found it... Can I take you with me?
