CURRENT MISSION

Making new friends, seeing the world, studying, working and having fun!

ABOUT ME

Hi, my name is André, I'm from Brasília (the capital of Brazil) and currently living in Uppsala, Sweden. I'm really interested in other countries/cultures and to make new friends.

I am very easy going and respectful, I'm a simple person so I don't mind where I'm going to sleep and I have just one food restriction: raisins! 😂

I'm studying a Master in Sociology of Education and have a master degree in Sustainable Development at Uppsala University. I also have a Bachelor in International Relations, am a specialist in Public Administration and I love politics. I used to work at the Federal District's Secretariat of Mobility as a Special Advisor to the Secretary and as a Counsellor at the Brasília's Metro Administration. I also worked at the Federal District's Chamber of Representatives as a Political Advisor.

I enjoy playing football (soccer), basketball, poker and to watch any sports. I also love movies and TV series such as Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, House of Cards, Vikings, The Big Bang Theory and others.

If you meet me, I can be more detailed about myself. =)

PHILOSOPHY

Spiritual but not religious. I'm not an extremist. I like balance in my life.
I try to have good relations with people around me and try to do good actions or at least don't do "evil" things.
