ABOUT ME
If I were to write a book, I'd spare a quite few chapters just to write about the fantastic people I have met in life. I believe they are big part of my wonderful experiences in life.
I have had the opportunity to see beautiful places and meet beautiful souls.
The first things that come to my mind to describe myself , such as "I love travelling", are true, but certainly very generic. So, what could I write to describe who I really am? Instead of doing that, I'll just talk about some experiences I had:
-Grew up in Rio, in an apartment building , 30 minutes from the Beach. Really good childhood, full of friends, sun and a big family
- Attended to a public highschool and in Rio I had the opportunity to live the contrasting reality that this city is : Beauty, top places, poverty and social problems.
- During my adolescence, I was part of a huge youth group of Catholic church (around 200 teens), had the opportunity to be their leader and learned a lot. Made many social works around our community.
( I dont consider myself catholic anymore although i have a great respect for this religion, like any other)
- Lived in Denver, US (senior year),learned skiing, made unforgettable friends and memories.
- Started my first degree :marketing and advertising degreee ( very cool classes).
I was admitted to the University I have always dreamed of, UFRJ and currently I'm study Environmental Engineering.( I do feel like I have to help the world get better!)
I believe that meeting people, traveling to places and learning stories probably are the most amazing things in the world.
PHILOSOPHY
Happiness is only real when shared
