I am a scientist, recently graduated in biotechnology at my hometown, Brasilia in Brazil. Besides my love for science I am also a travel, surf and photography enthusiast. I have spent almost 2 years in the San Diego area as a exchange student at the California State University, and that experience actually changed my life style and mindset. I have also experienced living in Houston Texas but I definitely feel me as Californian guy. As a traveler I have explored many Brazilian and U.S. states, some European countries and some in the South America nations. My Eurotrip during the winter season was a great adveture I like to share with friends. Recently, I have been to Colombia, which is a stunning place with great people and culture, that I have been missing since then.
In my short pathway arround the globe I've tried to teach people about my country and culture, and also learn and dive as much as I can in their culture and places.
I am currently in a sabbatical semester to travel and meditate, planing trips to US, Japan, and Costa Rica. Looking for sailing, bungee jump, and photograph whyle diving.
