About Me

ABOUT ME

"Não sou nada.
Nunca serei nada.
Não posso querer ser nada.
À parte disso, tenho em mim todos os sonhos do mundo."

Fernando Pessoa

Translation:
"I am nothing.
I shall never be anything.
I cannot wish to be anything.
Aside from that, I have within me all the dreams of the world."

Interests

Literature consumes me all the day long.
Meet people in streets and subway is my favourite hobby.
"Nunc est bibendum!" - talk latin while drinking wine?
