ABOUT ME
I´m a really easy going person. I like to have fun, talk to different people and also do social work. I lived in Kentucky USA in 98 as an exchange student and in 2004 I lived in East Timor for six months (amazing). Between 2010 - 2012 I lived in Guinea-Bissau. This link shows a little bit about myself: http://www.unv.org/en/perspectives/doc/volunteering-for-childrens-basic.html
PHILOSOPHY
I believe in 'Educomunicação' or 'Educomunication'; I write here some names that I believe or admire: Paulo Freire, Ismar de Oliveira Soares, Mario Kaplun, Juan Diaz Bordenave; Ramiro Beltran; Nelson Mandela, Xanana Gusmão; Taur Mata Ruak; Paulo Lima; Lilian Romão; Nelson Mandela; ok, I probably couldn´t finish writting in this decade, so those names can give you an idea about things that I beleive.
