About Me

Always a hard thing to do... haha
hmmm... brazilian, 27yo, open-minded, and open-source (I love sharing everything I know)... I also:

- like to travel (and take tons of photos of buildings, happy people, people taking selfies on touristic places, street posters, etc. www.instagram.com/gusprista

- looooove to get to know different cultures and new people (friend!) and try to see old things from a new perspective (what became seriously serious after I had had anthropology classes in my msc and academically stopped being an ethnocenrtic asshole!)

- play guitar (and I actually miss playing on a band), listen to almost all musical genres imaginable

- like acid humor (and I love when I'm able to make "acid jokes" in other languages than just in portuguese - is a clear sign of fluency)

- love brazilian carnival (actually Rio street carnival)

- can be really nerdy sometimes (when I find a new interesting subject I really love I disappear and read tons of stuff about it until I miss my friends and cold beer enough to quit reading - actually, if you know portuguese: https://medium.com/@gusprista )

- I'm always able to talk a little bit more about myself - but only if you need to ask something. This world is full of more interesting things than talking about me =]

Music, Movies, and Books

About music: see it for yourself! http://www.last.fm/user/headmine
(nevermind the 12 yo. profile name)

Movies and Books are things that I always forget two weeks after watching/reading, but I'm mostly into what's less hollywoodish
