I'm a brazilian woman, living in the south of my country. Recently it developed in me a huge desire to travel, to see diferent places and cultures, to know the most varied type of people and your histories. I think you and me have this wich in common.
My next trip is to Uruguay and Argentina and I hope meet new and good friends along my journay.

Interests

I'm a history teacher who dreams with a better world with more equality, empatie and tolerence. I love the popular culture of my country and of latinoamerica, the music, the dance, the food, etc and I love share this with curious and interesting people. I play the drum (and other instruments) in a maracatu group and I'm studing tambourine (pandeiro) for play coco and samba for all the places that I'll pass.

Yo soy una ensenante de Historia para Chicos y chicas y sueno con un mundo mejor, más igualitário, empático y tolerante. Yo amo la cultura popular de mi país e de Latinoamérica. Yo toco tambor en un grupo de maracatu y estoy estudiando pandereta para tocar coco y samba por cualquier lugar que me va

Music, Movies, and Books

I love literature and poetry. From latinoamerica Gabriel Garcia Márquez and your classic "cien años de soledad" among many others, the wonderful Eduardo Galeano, Jorge Luis Borges, Julio Cortázar, Isabel Allende, Gioconda Belli and many others. From Brazil: Cecília Meireles, Clarice Lispector, Conceição Evaristo, Manoel de Barros e Paulo Leminski. I love 'distopyas' and cientific fiction, like George Orwell and Aldous Huxley. My more recently books were "The handmaid's tale", from Margaret Atwood and "American gods" from Neil Gaiman. About music I'm a very openminded person and I love so much music that I not refuse It for nothing. Each moment deserves its own song. Movies I love them too. We can talk more about this in person :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had the incredible courage to become a mother, there was almost five years. I became mother of most beautiful, funny, smart and curious girl that I could meet. Got to know myself a lot more after her and I continue in the process of constantly looking at myself and being a better person for the world.

Yo tuve la grande corage que todas las madres tienen para convertirse en madres. Hoy mi hija tiene casi cinco anos, ella és uma chica inteligente, curiosa y muy querida. Después de ella yo me he convertido en una persona mejor, por lo menos és lo que me esfuerzo a ser, mirando cada vez más para dentro.
