CURRENT MISSION

To see the world.

ABOUT ME

I love to eat, drink, laugh and hear stories. I can be a bit shy at first but I always warm up in the end. I'm laid back and I sometimes have a child's curiosity. I think we are all connected. I don't follow any religions but I have a strong desire to learn of them.

E aí galera!

To aqui no Brasil até 2015 pra conhecer a pais. Já fui para Salvador e agora to em São Paulo até fim de Abril. No mês que vem, maio, vou pro rio.

Sou dos estados unidos e to aprendendo português.

Quero conhecer pessoas legais pra conhecer a cidade verdadeira. Então se vcs tem dicas ou sabem lugares legais não bem conhecidos, me conta. Gosto de explorar e achar coisas novas.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't force it.
