About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I enjoy life and I am willing to live each day. Married to my lovely wife, Shannen. Travelling the world during our sabbatical year.

ABOUT ME

Born in 1991 in Brasilia, the capital of Brazil. 8 years in the Netherlands, married to a Dutch girl. Now I am also Dutch.
I am talkative, curious and into different cultures and landscapes. I love economics (some people say it's strange), and also to read, listen to music, watch movies (all kinds) and travelling around.
