About Me

We're the same person with different cultural backgrounds, habits, tastes, traditions, experiences, fears, dreams and rhythm. Little do we know about how similar we are.
I happen to evolve around music, art and languages, though I don't fluently speak that many, I am actually more interested in writing. I am also a geek when it comes to audio-visual programming, some science of magic.
I am the musical part of the collective Xenorama (based in Berlin) and am currently looking for collaborative projects in Rio while I'm around.
I might not share your opion… but whatever it is you do, I'd do the same if I were you.
Equilíbrio.

Interests

I am fascinated by natural fragrance and the inherent innocence of mankind.
I often fall for the metropolitan habit while feeling at home and connected when in nature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To help someone overcome and disengage from a severe psychosis — to regain a sense of freedom they had hitherto forgotten — was a magical experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

> I haven't studied anything officially, yet I am pretty active in various fields like sound design, projection mapping, generative design, screenplay, indian languages though mostly scripts, playing Sitar&Sarod and checking out Indian music in gereal, calligraphy, painting, handicraft, vinyl, cooking, hiking and…

< I don't think I'll ever study officially, but I'd be interested to learn various instruments of the world (like the Oud, the Gimbri, the Qin, the Bansuri and the Esraj) as well as remote languages and forms of expression, working with theatre, the art of etching, permaculture, various forms of dancing and natural movement as well as producing essential oils and fragrances. I'll tell you more next time.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I don't need much (though a place to grab good coffee is always welcome), I'll adapt to your habits at home and likewise respect them, I enjoy smoking but you can send me outside no problem. I help wherever possible and try not to take up too much space. I'll cook with you for sure (preferably veg). Other than that I have pen and paper to offer and am up for party & cultural events.
