CURRENT MISSION

to find the Holy Grail, I think I should search for it in every country... just in case.

ABOUT ME

I wanted to be a professional ballerina when I was little. I don't have any regrets. I have travelled quite a bit and I have met amazing and not-so-amazing people. I can talk about Brazil for hours and hours, because I am very proud of the country I am from. I'm attracted to intelligent people because I hope that they will teach me something. I flirt. I think that foreign languages are sexy and I wish I had a cuter accent. My day does not begin until I have had a good cup of coffee. I LOVE thunderstorms. I think that generosity is the best trait a person can have. I really want to run a marathon. I think that Twitter is just... awkward. I enjoy sarcasm-covered conversations and "knock-knock" jokes. I am addicted to Formula 1 and soccer (that comes from having the best soccer team in the world). Oh, and I strongly believe in the power of education to transform people's lives :)

PHILOSOPHY

There is this Brazilian saying that says "we have two ears and one mouth for one reason: to listen more and to speak less." I prefer to listen to what people have to say and fill my brain with inscessant thoughts. I believe I still have a lot to learn.
