CURRENT MISSION

Decoding the world

ABOUT ME

I'm a Latin-American born in Mexico City. PhD Candidate in Political Science, Journalist and Spanish Teacher. From my current position in Southeast Brazil, I'm frequently scanning our social, political and cultural realities. But I have more questions than answers. The next trip is maybe uncovering part of the solutions.

PHILOSOPHY

Traveling should be more than getting the wonders of the world in our photo albums; it could be also a pleasant way of advancing our integration with the huge diversity of the human experience.
