About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Graduate! I need my diploma, badly!

ABOUT ME

First of all, a passionate person. Easy-going, tollerant, totally free from prejudice, helpfull. I am the kind of guy that is down to do pretty much anything, I am moving from Brazil to go to college in the US, as I am going to stay at the town of Batavia between Buffalo and Rochester (NY), I would love to get to meet new people from all over the Northeastern America. Nothing is better than go through new experiences with new friends. I hope that couching will provide me a whole new perspective of life, travelling and friendship. I might not be able to offer a couch to you guys for now, however, I expect to bring people from all over the world to my hometown in Brazil as soon as I get there for summer vacations.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in freedom and how people need to show they deserve it. To be nice and gentle with whoever and try to comprehend people's thoughts, feelings and actions are some of my favorites traits. I believe in justice, I believe in self-respect, I think that pride dispel some of the greates opportunities you might have. I think every single person has something to teach, and something to learn, nobody is perfect but everybody has qualities and defects. I will always try to see what you have of good inside yourself, and like you, besides of complain about you have of bad. 2 people can always get along if both want to.

Music, Movies, and Books

Not really into books. Though, I love movies, specially the dramatic ones, American Beauty is my favorite. I like James Bond, Mission Impossible and the Bourne trilogy, strategy is what I look for on those . Even though I am not into scary movies Saw has a brilliant dramatic context. When it comes to music, ecletic would describe me better than anything else, Brazil is strong musically and has something to offer for all tastes. Hip hop is great and Eminem knows best, as about pop and pop/rock Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Nickelback are pretty good. Music is a matter of moment, and there are moments for any type of music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Have not done a lot besides partying at the places I have been. The Brazilian Amazone was definitely one of the most amazing places. The indians, the forrest the animals and the skyline. The gold mine in North Brazil with its 1 Kg gold nuggets (Yeah! Really!). The Carlsbad cave in New Mexico.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about diet and nutrition for a layman, and I like and think it is important to pass that on. Everybody can be healthy. As I said before, any kind of knowledge is good, and it is always great to get in contact with local and cultural informations about pretty much anywhere.
