About Me

I grew up in Brazil, in a beautiful historical town in the middle of the vast country. After 15 years of traveling around and living in different places, I am back in my home town: Ouro Preto.
I've been trying to become an 'international citizen' since I was 6 years old.
I believe I always have something valuable to learn from everyone.

I'm Brazilian but I don't know much about soccer.
I like to cook and I'm always trying to improve my cooking skills by helping others.
I care about politics.
I am curious about culture and every type of lifestyle.
I like folklore and I respect the different.

If it matters to you, I'm gay.
