CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life as much as possible

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I love this wonderful city, but also love spending some time out travelling and knowing other people and cultures. Currently, I am living in Buenos Aires (for more than 6 years now) and I am in love with this city! It is an amazing experience to live abroad, get to live another culture day by day and meet new people. On the other hand, I had worked for 3 years and a half with foreigners and have learned that you don't need to travel to get to know the world. People have a lot to teach us and since I have quit that job, that is what I miss the most: getting to know people from all over the world. I am cheerful, enthusiastic and love to talk and to go out. Will love to show my current city or to give advice to anyone who wants some travel tips about Rio or BsAs.

PHILOSOPHY

"Do not regret the things you have done, but the things you did not do". So if I feel like doing something, I just do it! Life is too short!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The best thing I have done was to break out of my confort zone and go living in another country. I have learned so much in these 7 years and a half living away from my home country! I think everyone should have this experience :)
