CURRENT MISSION

learn, laugh, enjoy life and have friends all over the world ;)

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Rio de Janeiro, a chaotic tropical metropolis where people insist on being warm and happy. After graduation I saved money to move to Europe, picked Lisbon as my starting point and have been living here very happily for a year! My father is brazilian and my mother is portuguese, so I have family in both countries. But I don't plan on settling anywhere, I just love moving around the world!

PHILOSOPHY

As Oscar Wilde said, "quotation is a serviceable substitute for wit" ;)

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover" – Mark Twain

"Don’t tell me how educated you are, tell me how much you have travelled." – Mohammad, founder of Islam

"A good traveller has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving." – Laozi, founder of Taoism

"Absorb what is useful, discard what is useless, and add what is uniquely your own." – Bruce Lee

"Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." – Mark Twain

Interests

Everything? I'm a bit of an information junkie. I love learning and sharing information, especially if it could have a positive impact on people's lives.

People and Science intrigue me. I love traveling, cultures, nature, music, photography, all art forms and things that stimulate the senses. Fitness and general life hacking are kind of my hobbies.
