About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Receive my Masters

ABOUT ME

I obviously LOVE to travel, but above that meeting new people and sharing stories. I always feel a bit down when my backpack isn't packed and nothing is marked on the calendar. (how it is now...) I wish I could travel ALL the time but until I win the lottery, it will have to be occasionally ; ) I've had the privilege of being raised both in Brazil and the U.S. and a year in Espana! My hope is that I continue to meet people and help them expand their minds. Ignorance is better than Stuborness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There is nothing more amazing than swimming under a waterfall in Brazil, playing with monkeys at the Rock of Gibraltar, climbing the continental divide in the U.S., having your Turkish coffee grounds read, or spending countless hours on a bus/train/car with strangers, who usually turn out to be new friends/ learning experience.
