One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I helped build a social work that is a reference in latin america called Instituto Pombas Urbanas. We create a cultural center in a suburb of São Paulo that is transforming thousands of lives.

Teach, Learn, Share

I Can teach a little bit of portuguese, about the city, about Internet, about WordPress, Juggling, Science Fiction and a little bit about religions.

I want to learn more languages, cultures, energies, flavors, worldviews and wisdom. I want to learn how to build myself without being affected by others.

I want to share, my knowledge, my culture, my love and my ideas about life, world, technology and god.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I Can offer a coffee, some breads, and maybe a little bit of handmade beer if you like :)
