About Me

"Deixa-te levar pela criança que foste." (SARAMAGO, José.)

I`m a 28 years old brazilian girl, born and raised in a yogui and vegetarian family.
I consider myself to be a very open-minded and friendly person who loves travelling and trying out new things.
I finished my studies in Visual Arts in june 2013 and went to Montreal to learn french and improve my english skills and to get some time before deciding what I want to do in this life. I spent six months there and then came back to Brasil.
I like exploring cities with my camera in hand, taking long walks and drinking some beers.
I love parties, the sea, conversations about art, vegetarian and vegan food (even if I eat meat/fish/chicken sometimes) and I can`t live without my friends and family.
I`m very easy going and I love to make new friends.

In Brazil I have worked as a manager in a coworking company, to earn some money and travel again. The last year I've traveled around Argentina doing wwoof.
I've been to mendoza, some little cities in the province of Buenos Aires and to the Argentinian Patagonia. Almost 4.000 km traveled by hichhiking!
It has been such a huge life experience that I can't describe it yet. Still processing everything that I've learned.

Right now I'm back in Brazil living with my parents in the countryside (near Recife) working in MahaBhumi, a project that involves organic agriculture, bioconstruction, yoga & ayurveda and sustainable living in general.
