I am majoring in Nursing.

I got a fully funded scholarship from the Brazilian ministry of Education and went to the U.S. where I lived for about two years. Studied at WNMU and worked as a research assistant at NYU's Center for health, identity, behavior and prevention studies.

I've been to many different places mostly in Mexico and U.S. I love traveling that's my passion.

My dream is to visit all the new seven Wonders of the World before I turn 30yo. :P I have been to two of them. I have only more 5 to go !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Mexico and started hitchhiking by myself. I spent there 21 days. By that time I knew only a little Spanish but I could do many things. I met a crazy student in Sinaloa who took me to lots of amazing places and helped me improving my Spanish. Her family liked me a lot, so I stayed for Christmas and New Year's eve :P. When I came back to the US, the border patrol officers had me to stay there for 4 HOURS only because they couldn't understand why a Brazilian guy was coming back from Mexico and crossing the border by land. Also they wanted to know how come I could speak Spanish and English so good (LMAO). I'm serious, I had the papers, VISA, passport and stuff but they were interest in my story. You know those guys are crazy !!! I was interviewed by 5 officers. Anyway, It was very very interesting experience. I had fun!
