ABOUT ME
"Hey patsanchik, siga est? A semki? A che po melochi?": My initiation into russian slangs ;)

From São Paulo, Brazil, currently in Santiago de Compostela, Spain. I´m a PhD student on soil science (Agronomy). I have worked as a hight school teacher for some years. As many as possible I like to be in touch with the nature´s energy. I prefer natural spots than urban ones. I like to learn with new landscapes and ways of life, differents from mines. I´m vegetarian since 2001 (lately mostly vegan than vegetarian). I compost my dirt. Sporty guy... lately running, doing calisthenics or going to the gym; also spent long years of my life doing judo, capoeira, skating. I´m Interested on the spiritual side of all religions. I´m also into anthroposophical movement. I sing in a choir...

When I travel I like to see not only tourist places, those I can take photos. Stuff about art/culture/history/architecture might be interesting, but not the most important. I prefer to see the atmosphere of usual places, the soul of common people, the taste of immaterial things!

I´m fascinated by russian culture and history after a long time (especially the nineteenth century russian realism - I love Tolstoy). Besides growing up and living in Brazil almost my whole life I spent one year of my undergrad studies in Paris - France (2009-2010), and one year of phD program in Santiago de Compostela - Galicia - Spain (2021-2022).

PHILOSOPHY
"The question is not what you look at but how you look and whether you see." Henry Thoureau

"What a man did yesterday is today still present in its effects. A picture of the connection between cause and effect is given in the simile of sleep and death. Sleep has often been called the younger brother of death. I get up in the morning. My consecutive activity has been interrupted by the night. Now, under ordinary circumstances it is not possible for me to begin my activity again just as I please. I must connect it with my doings of yesterday if there is to be order and coherence in my life. My actions of yesterday are the conditions predetermining those actions that fall to me today. I have created my destiny of today by what I did yesterday. I have separated myself for awhile from my activity, but this activity belongs to me and draws me again to itself after I have withdrawn myself from it for awhile. My past remains bound up with me; it lives on in my present and will follow me into my future. If the effects of my deeds of yesterday were not to be my destiny of today, I should not have had to awake this morning, but to be newly created out of nothing." Rudolf Steiner

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Russia: Twice (2010, 2013)

White nights in St Petersburg. I still don´t know if was real or if I was dreaming

Drink ayhuasca tea at Amazon Forest (2006 and 2008)

Fight Club: Twice, with close friends (but I shouldn´t talk about it, cause "the first rule about fight club is..."). Ok I know that´s stupid, but we were young and we were drunk and I must confess, it was great!

Paint some plants with water colours (every day during 4 weeks) to see them blooming and growing up

Hitchhike 3.000 km from San Matias (Santa Cruz-Bolí­via) to Salvador (Bahia-Brazil) crossing a part of South America

Travelling around almost all states of Brazil

Little trips with my bike at São Paulo State

Be member of a contemporary dance group and a theatre group at college

Every week in São Paulo there are many opening of exibitions where you can find drink and food for free. The secret is that some friends and I know the schedule of this vernissages. The funny thing is that we use to go there by bike, we are sweaty and bad wearing with "havaianas" (popular brazilian slippers) in the middle of all those fancy and pretentious people.
