“I was never capable of being an average pupil. I would either seem refractory to any teaching and give the impression of being completely dumb or I would fling myself on my work with a frenzy, a patience, and a willingness to learn that astonished everybody. But to awaken my zeal, it was necessary to offer me something I liked. Once my appetite had been whetted, I became ravenously hungry.” - Salvador Dalí.

I am a 22 years old, Brazilian, Medicine Student from São Paulo, currently living in Groningen. I like to travel and discover a bit of the place’s culture. Meeting new people is always interesting, because they always have a story to tell and that allows you to know yourself better. I also play football and I am interested in Arts.
I enjoy listening to all kind of music but my favorite style is Jazz.
Um abraço, Luiz!
