About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to find one. ideas are welcome!

ABOUT ME

first things first:
- nop, I'm not Chinese nor Korean. My grandfather was from Japan.
- yep, I'm Brazilian, though not the stereotype you have in mind. Don't worry, if you've never been to/don't know anything about São Paulo, you can't suspect that "japas" are as common as traffic in the city. ;)

Besides that, I'm a positive person, a bit shy but easy-going when feeling comfortable with people around me.
As anyone in this project, I like meeting new people and getting to know other cultures.
