I'm a Brazillian, but my parents are Japanese. So I'm a mix of both cultures! :)

*I left Brazil in November of 2014!
I'm a Reiki user and now I learned acupressure and masage, I'm travelling working with energetic therapies, I can give you a very good therapy to align your chakras. :)

I'm doing a long travel, I left my work where I was for 8 years to made a old dream become true. Travel the world, meet new people and places. I want to experience most new things is possible, enlarge my vision of the world. My passion and motivation is draw, I want to improve my art, study and meet another illustrators too. I was working with illustration for years, but now I'm doing my own comics.
My another passion is craft beer, I want to study to be a beer sommelier and brew my own beer someday. I'm writing about the craft beer of every country to a website about beers.
I began to do interview with woman who draw comics, if you know someone or a contac tI will be grateful!
