About Me

Oi! I'm brazilian and my life was turned upside down when I decided to do a volunteer work in Budapest for 2 months. Since that experience, I can't stand anymore the idea of staying in one place. I wanna see the world, I wanna travel and meet people from everywhere; I want to understand other cultures and teaching about my culture too. I believe this is how we create empathy, something really rare nowadays. I tried a scholarship to study in France for one semester and I won, and I had the opportunity to meet incredible people and traveling around Europe with them. But now I decided to travel by myself for the first time and this is why I'm here.
If you ask me to define myself as something, I would probably say my passion for movies. I'm a filmmaking student and I can't see myself doing anything else than making movies. I enjoy watching any kind of movie and I'm a huge Tv Show fanatic.
I'm also in love with books, especially fantasy ones, and I love photography. I'm the kind of person that can spend hours talking about politics, and also Atrology (sorry).
And, as the geek I am, I'll have to say: Live long and prosper and May the Force be with you!
Tchau!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love any kind of music. My favorite song is "American Pie" by Don McLean.
Favorite movie, probably Lord of the Rings: The Return of the Kinds, but I also could say Pride and Prejudice, Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, Mad Max: Fury Road, Wild Tales, and manyyy sci fi movies. I looove reading fantasy books or dystopian. The last one I read and reaally enjoyed was An Ember in the Ashes, and the sequel A Torch Against the Night.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
