About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be happy and make everybody around me happy too

ABOUT ME

I love to sing when I'm diving... ok, have to change that... now, after my dream come true trip to Australia: I love to hear the whales singing when I'm diving :-)

PHILOSOPHY

"Make a wish and place it into your heart. Anything you want, everything you want. Do you have it? Good.
Now believe it can come true. You never know where the next miracle is going to come from. The next smile, the next wish come true. But if you believe that it's right around the corner, and you open up your heart and mind to the possibility of it,you just might get the thing you're wishing for.The world is full of magic. You just have to believe in it.
So make your wish.
Do you have it?
Good.
Now believe in it, with all your heart."

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all the books, songs, movies and plays, that makes me dream, smile, dance, sing, remember, learn, and share moments with someone, or when I'm alone too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I use to say that I`ll never be sad again in my life, because everytime something bad happen I can close my eyes and remember that I realized a great dream... diving at the great barrier reef!!!

Another thing that makes me happy is remember my first oceanographic expedition, when I was at the boat gym riding a bike over the atlantic meso oceanic ridge!

And... Sex on the reefs - Don't worry i`m not a pervert! This is about the first record of a Brazilian coral species reproduction!!! I WAS THERE!!!Was amazing...unbelievable! that animals who looks like rocks have the same beginning that us... an egg, thousands sperm...a new life!!! :D

Teach, Learn, Share

we are constantly learning and theaching, is difficult to say what specifically, but my favourite thing about the CS is to share experiences about travels, cultures, languages, food... share our lives a bit with stranges that sundenlly became our friends, I can always teach and learn this way.
