Music, Movies, and Books
I'm very open minded regarding music. Say something cool and I'm gladly listen and probably enjoy it a lot. I was avid rock fan, but right now I listen more to jazz, bossa nova and Brazilian popular music (MPB).
About movies I can say that I prefer independent ones to blockbusters. Paolo Sorrentino is probably my favourite film director.
Right now I only read a ton about economics. However, a good old fashioned novel is always cool to me. Huge fan of prose, but I'll give poetry a try soon.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I believe the most amazing thing I've ever done is that I've managed to live one year away from my grandma, the most fantastic person on earth.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can surely try to help you learn a bit of Portuguese and even fake a carioca accent.
And I'm always looking to improve my German.
