CURRENT MISSION

I´m trying to make the best of my time in Europe. I want to travel to know different people and cultures to enlarge my vision of the world before going back to my country, Brazil.

ABOUT ME

I consider myself easygoing, usually I adapt quickly to different situations. I guess because I´m a Braziian and in my country many times you are pushed to change things in a pace that I don´t find in France. I love to spend my time talking with people from different cultures, backgrounds and life styles. Sometimes I wish I was born in the old times when people had more time to get around with friends, family, to enjoy nature, to think about existence and to dream! I don´t smoke, I eat well, I guess I might be a healthy person!

PHILOSOPHY

Most of all, I think we are all equal. Of course we have different experiences and backgrounds, but everybody has its importance in this world. I don´t like hierarchy, but I value respect toward others. I think this world could be much better if money was not so valued. I fear all this artificiality that we see all around us and I dream about a simple world, more interested in well being than sucess.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For me is always amazing going up to the stage to sing, because I´m so afraid to do it so...and I´ve done it couple of times in Brazil. It was a great experience. To come to Europe is always amazing to me, I feel like traveling in a live History book. I´ve seen in the US the Grand Canyon and it was quite amazing too!

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach Portuguese (Brazilian), my mother tongue. I like to cook Brazilian dishes, even tough I´m always afraid of people´s reaction to my cooking! I would love to practice my English, to learn gardening and to cook different dishes.
