Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Become a multi millionaire writter...lol.
ABOUT ME
I was born in Rio de Janeiro in 1973. My life was boring and I didn´t want to get in the army. So, I Went to England in 1993. There, I worked as a concierge, receptionist, busboy, waiter, etc. I travelled all over England, as well as in Scotland. After a while, I managed to save money enough to by a Porsh my neighbour was selling, but I had an insight and decided to travel the world. I Quit my fancy job at a 5 star hotel in central London and went backpaking for 7 months through Egypt, India, Indonesia and Australia. I Returned to Brazil in 1997 and got my law degree after my father pushed me to get a life and own up my responsibities. Since then, I´ve also worked as a philantropic magitian, performing in orphanages, nursing homes, shanty towns and hospitals.
In 2012 I went on a one month trip around Cuba, where I also perfomed magic shows in public schools. A couple o years ago I quit my job as a lawyer and started a new career as a writer. I just finished my second book and I am planning on taking a trip around the US and write about it.
PHILOSOPHY
I can die tomorow. So, I got to do as many cool things and help as many peole I can! I also try not to be an asshole! (I succeed sometimes...lol).
