About Me

Brazilian, backpacker, skydiver, scubadiver, veggie, nature lover....

I like to travel, hang out with my friends, meet fun people and listen to good music. I love my family, enjoy to be in contact with the nature and I am always open for new friendships.

I try to be relevant in this world, learn, share, make friends and experience freedom and happiness. The lost time don't come back so I try to have moments that make my life worth.
