About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to explore the desert

ABOUT ME

Let´s see...
I am originally from Brazil but I live in Israel at the moment. I am an Engineer and I am doing a master degree here in the desert.
Well, Im passionate about travelling, learning languagues, politics, history, getting to know weird people. I wish I would like engineering (what I got a degree on) as much as I like the items I have mentioned above.

PHILOSOPHY

For we know all that we know only through looking at the beings; therefore our knowledge does not grasp the future or the infinite … For us to desire to have an intellectual cognition of the way this comes about is as if we desired that we be He and our apprehension be His apprehension. (The guide of the perplexed- M. Maimonides)

Interests

Travelling, music, history, politics, beer, talking and drinking beer, religion, friendship, wars, language, classical languages, Obama and Afghanistan
