Overview
About Me
Hey there,
Sharing is just amazing!
I graduated in Architecture in 2015 in Brazil and have been excited to travel abroad. Since I became a missionary in 2010 I have been learning a lot about life and people.
I've had the privilege to travel throughout Brazil and meet several indigenous tribes, and different types of culture and languages. Through a number of supporting projects I was able to assist people in need, as well as learn from them.
Looking forward to meeting you!''
CURRENT MISSION
I got out from Brazil with 500 dollars in the pocket with the goal to see my brother in Alaska, and what was supposed to be a short trip, became a more than one year travel that i really dont know where and when gonna stop hehe.
On this time i lived a lot of great experiences, met a lot of great people, worked a lot and partied a lot too hehe. My goal is to listen, to learn, to share.
PHILOSOPHY
'' If you are going to be anything, be genuine"
