CURRENT MISSION

Meet new people, visit new places, make some art/music, learn, share, teach, and engage in LOTS of conversations. We all have so much to learn from each other, i wanna acquire as much knowledge as the world has to offer.

ABOUT ME

I was born and lived in Brazil for about 14 years and have currently been living in Texas. I am a mixed-media artist who takes interest in all styles and mediums. I work with photography, drawing, painting, tattooing and music but it seems as though i find something new to experiment with on a daily basis. Im a very friendly/social, relaxed person who gets along with pretty much everyone. Ill enjoy going out and partying as much as ill enjoy hanging around and talking endlessly. I love sharing opinions and no subject is off bounds with me, i will enjoy and learn from whatever conversation pops up. I love the outdoors although i don't experience nearly as much as i wish too living in Houston.

PHILOSOPHY

There should be lots of philosophizing when we carry out an actual conversation. I find it quite difficult to explain some of my personal philosophies through a text box haha.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Saw some wild pigs swimming on the beaches of small islands on around the caribbean. Also fed some grapes to wild iguanas over there, and don't even get me started on the scenery.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe conversation is the best way to learn, teach and share. It is incredible how much you can learn from others and from your own self by means of conversation. We all have very long lists of teach/learn/share. Ill be more than happy to teach you anything you find yourself interested in and i hope you don't mind teaching as well.
