The exchange is the point

Sustainable travel
Staying with locals is the most sustainable form of travel accommodation — no resource-intensive hotel operations, no empty rooms running on power. Sofahop is better for Brazil and for the planet.

A small gift from your home country is a well-established tradition in hospitality exchange communities — nothing expensive, just something that says something about where you're from. Food, drink, or a small cultural item all work well. It's not required, but it's almost always appreciated.
Yes. Hosts set their own preferences for guests, including couples and small groups. Be transparent in your profile about who you're traveling with and what your setup requires. Most hosts are accommodating if you communicate clearly.
Hosting means offering accommodation — a spare room, a sofa, whatever you have. Meeting travelers means connecting for a drink, a tour, or local tips without the overnight stay. Both are valid uses of Sofahop, and many members do both at different times.
Sofahop is community-funded and built by people who believe travel and human connection shouldn't cost money. Optional premium features may be added in future, but the core will always be free. The commitment to free is foundational, not provisional.
The community in Santa Rita do Passa Quatro is growing. The platform is newer than CouchSurfing, which means the network is still building — but it's building in the right direction, with hosts who joined specifically because they believe in the free model.
Not necessarily. Many hosts in Santa Rita do Passa Quatro speak English or other widely spoken languages. Sofahop also supports 50+ languages, so you can often find hosts who communicate in a language you share. A few words of the local language always helps.
The web platform works on all mobile devices. A native app is in development for iOS and Android. In the meantime, the mobile browser experience is fully functional for searching, messaging, and managing your profile.
That's between you and your host. Most stays range from one to five nights. Longer stays are possible if both sides agree — just communicate clearly up front, and be realistic about what's sustainable for your host.
You can leave an honest review and report any issues to the Sofahop team. The mutual review system means bad actors quickly become visible to the rest of the community. It's self-correcting: the people who stay active are the people who take the exchange seriously.
