Hey, what's up? My name is Lara, i'm an 28 years old girl. I'm an fashion designer and i work in a local fashion magazine as editorial coordinator, but i'm freelancer too.

I'm a friendly person and i love talk and meet people from other countries. I like to learn about different cultures, mores and languages, i'm really very curious about the world and I consider myself a open-minded person. I love travel and I'm very open to learn new things, i just love it!

Here in Fortaleza i live in Meireles, a very nice neighborhood in Fortaleza, really close to everything ( or almost haha). There are bus stops nearby, you can go by walking to touristic places here like Dragão do Mar, Praia de Iracema, Beira Mar...and you're 10, 15 min from Downtown, Central Market and the shopping centers. Now i'm living with my mom and a brother in a nice apartment....ah, also i have 2 friendly cats.

Oi, me chamo Lara, escorpiana com 28 anos :D. Sou formada em Designer de Moda e cursei 3 anos de Letras/Português. Hoje trabalho como Coordenadora Editorial freelancer em uma editora de revistas aqui em Fortaleza.

Me considero uma pessoa super tranquila, adoro conversar e conhecer pessoas de outros lugares, gosto dessa troca de conhecimentos. Sou muito curiosa em relação ao mundo e me considero uma pessoa cabeça aberta e super de boa. Adoro viajar e aprender tudo sobre a cultura e as pessoas dos lugares que visito.

Moro no Meireles, um bairro bacana aqui de Fortaleza, bem perto de tudo e com várias opções de ônibus por perto. Dá pra ir a pé para lugares como Dragão do Mar, Praia de Iracema, Beira Mar, Monsenhor Tabosa..e por volta de 10,15 minutos do centro da cidade, Mercado Central e shoppings centers. Moro com minha mãe e um irmão em um apartamento e tenho 2 gatos super carinhosos :)
