ABOUT ME

Hello, i am Natalia, from Brazil and i am 20 years old. I start travelling abroad at the end of 2011 and i just fell in love for discovering new cities, new cultures and for sure new people :)
About me, i study medicine but i am always trying to expand from these. i really like to go out with my friends and i believe that, with them, it doesn't matter the place, everything will just be fine.
I usually spend my free time running at the beach, because i live in the coast, riding bicicle and doing "adventurous running". I also love seeing movies and i'm usually reading a book (not from medicine, i swear).
Despite i am brasilian, i am not a good dancer, and maybe that's why i prefer bars to discos. I am not that fan of soccer too.
In general, it's quite easy to please me and i really want make some friends aroud thw world. By now, my focus will be in Europe because i will spend one year there :)
that's it! see you :)

PHILOSOPHY

i really like to look for my happiness, most of the time in simple and usual things. i don't believe in religion but i respect it very much. i'm always looking for know myself better and psychology is always something that i am intereted in.
