About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Carpe Diem ;)

ABOUT ME

I am half swedish and portuguese. Because of this since I was a child I have been traveling from north to south Europe. I love to travel and meet new people and new cultures. This allows me to see the world with much more magnitude and admiration. If I could I would be traveling all my life!
Since I was a child I have been much into Arts, I start studing piano when I was 6years old. However, right now I don play so much as I really wanted...
In a summary I consider myself a very open mind person. I love to listen stories, to laugh and have great times!
I also have a special passion for challenges, that makes me fell alive. Thus, my life has been full of challenges, which i believe it is great to really learn! I don't get tired of learning and learning!
To conclude, I would be very happy if I could have the opportunity to meet different people and cultures!
Oh! I can't forget this! Other thing I love to do is to eat! Actually one of my dreams is to do a gastronomic travel around the world! I believe the different gastronomy and consequent tastes around the world, despite the pleasure given, are also an important key of cultures expression. So, if I am going to receive someone I would love to learn or just to hear about the typical gastronomy! Better would be to taste some :) But not required!

PHILOSOPHY

Don't do to others things you wouldn't like them to do to you!
Look at the bright side of life! :)
Itś better to regret of things you have done that things you haven't done!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One great and singular experience I had was to do "El camino de santiago" trough foot. I walked this so called "pilgrim way" in Spain for eleven days alone. Through this way I meet a lot of special people. The way it self was amazing, I walked trough mountains, rivers and then arrived to "The end of the world" (Finisterra). Despite the blisters on my feet it turned up to be one of my best expriences ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to meet all kinds of people. I don't like to put labels on people. Each person is unique and I believe each person has something special with in. Despite being a mother, I am very curious to meet new people, even if they are parents as well or not. The simple fact that there is at the background different experiences, realities and perhaps cultures I found it lovely to have the possibility to learn more and open new ways of seeing things... I find it great to be able to share and learn!
