About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Perhaps, my main current mission is to be happy & realised :). I believe that only when we are in such state of mind, we will be able to promote fairness & happiness to the others. I am also making my daily contribuition to change the World :)
ABOUT ME
Usually people say I am romantic and spontaneous, but I also know how to be realistic, it would mean trying to establish a balance. I have been living in the UK for over 13 years. Here I am Translator & Interpreter, studying a second degree in International Politics. Back home, Sao Paulo, which is a fantastic city, I was journalist and Civil servant in Court of Law.
My field in Journalism is music. Also i adore theatre; preferably being part of a play and I am addicted to cinema.
PHILOSOPHY
Your choice: Living 10 years at 1000 mph or 1000 years at 10 mph?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I don't think there is any experience as amazing as seeing a baby coming out to this world. ;-)
I did an interpreting job for this portuguese woman during a labour session.
Teach, Learn, Share
Perhaps what I could be teaching or what I'd like to would be: the importance of positive thoughts and optimism.
I woud learn - whatever you think would be enriching.
I can share my experiences and positive vibrations ;-).
