About Me

I'm a Brazilian-born political scientist (MSc), internationalist, activist, dancer, diver, and language enthusiast. I'm currently working full-time as a research assistant, studying a master's in international humanitarian actions and enjoying this beautiful and warm summer.

I appreciate honesty and respect above all things. So, please, don't be a racist, sexist, or anything-phobic (unless it's a real fear for things like cockroaches or spiders or clowns), and you will be most welcome at my place.
