About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm easy going, calm, independent, flexible. I like to make people laugh when I can. I like to know new people, new places, having new perspectives, trying new food, learning new languages. I like different cultures and getting lost in thought. I like smart things, normally related to machines and technology. I like everything about travelling. Even getting lost. Sometimes, before I had a smartphone, I used to avoid maps and just walk anywhere in an unknown place and try to get back using only my sense of direction. I think I started liking things lately because of its relation to travel. I've chosen to study Engineering mostly because of its range of possibilities as I hate to be stuck somewhere. I plan of having my own business in a close future and travelling has helped me this way too (edit: opened, but now I'm stuck in my city). I learn new things everyday and I'm looking for a great goal to achieve after/during I visit the whole world.

PHILOSOPHY

What’s the point of being alive if you don’t at least try to do something remarkable?

Music, Movies, and Books

I like rock and some rap.
We can talk for hours about movies!
I have a personal goal of reading at least a book per month as I get the most of my knowledge from them and make my arguments kinda respected. Haha
I either read about psychology, science or inspiring books.
Recommend: The Art of non-conformity, by Chris Guillibeau.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seems pretty normal, but opening a business on my own has been a challenge for me.
Other than that, I'm trying to win my irrational fears every year with some extreme sport, such as bungee, trekking, scuba diving, getting lost in the jungle. Next goal is to skydive :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Everytime I meet a new culture I wonder about my own habits and get amazed.

Fun stories, cooking, playing cards
