About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live THIS moment, as it is the only thing that exists...

ABOUT ME

Hey! This is Ro, but everybody knows me as Ro. I'm 32, and I just moved to Lisbon, Portugal with a nomad visa! I love traveling and living new adventures every year.

I own two marketing businesses and I’m getting certified in Breathwork, so I can be a facilitator (aiming for August!), so my schedule is pretty busy, and I love it!

I’m a bit of a workaholic and an addict to physical exercise and healthy food, I don’t drink (perhaps a bit of wine every once in a while), I don’t smoke, but I enjoy going to coffee shops or pizza places every week (my two kryptonites 😅)

I’m the kind of person who likes to experience every possible thing at least once. I consider myself well-rounded, with a lot of interests such as languages, cultures, traditions, sports, places, music, etc. I’m extremely open-minded, easy-going, and I’m aware that we all have lived different situations, we all have been in different circumstances, and those are some of the reasons why I don't like when people are judged.

The most important thing for me is traveling, since it opens your eyes, it makes us grow as a person, and gives us another perspective of the world. I like having profound conversations, and listening to other people's life experiences!

I only have one big bed that I can happily share, but otherwise I would prefer to meet for coffee or something and talk about life!

PHILOSOPHY

"Sometimes you have to fall from the mountain to realize what you are climbing for. Obstacles are placed in our way to see if what we want is really worth fighting for. From every wound there's a scar, and every scar tells a story. A story that says, "I was deeply wounded but I survived."

"The extent of your consciousness is limited only by your ability to love and to embrace with your love the space around you, and all it contains"

"Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything"

Interests

I love playing tennis and piano and I do it as often as I can. I am a very active person, and anything that involves exercise, I'm up for it! Love meeting new people, traveling, getting out of my comfort zone, cause there's where real life begins!

Teach, Learn, Share

We are always learning new things, even though we're not conscious about it.
