About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy the most of life!

ABOUT ME

I`m an international relations student from Sao Paulo. I also work with international tax consulting. I love travelling, meeting people, having fun, sharing experiences, well, it's as simple as that! or should be...
I think it's always hard to describe oneself, but to make things a bit more precise, I'd say that I'm very out-going, from hard partying/clubbing to chatting in nice and quiet cafes (not too quite, though).
I find great pleasure in trying new food, new drinks, new things in general, I mean, in knowing new people, new ideas, new places, etc...
I'm terrible at any sport, and I'm not very interested in watching them neither, though I'd say I enjoy jogging.
I love being "in the wild", nature can be just breath-taking, but I couldn't live far from a huge city and all the fun (and the traffic jams and other problems, true) that come with it.

PHILOSOPHY

"Work like you don't need the money,
love like you've never been hurt,
and dance like nobody's watching"
