About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet new people, learn about their culture and have fun!

ABOUT ME

I have just spent 3 months traveling all around brasil, mainly in the north east and the central west and have loved it so much that I have cancelled my ticket home and have traveled to Rio in search of work and some where that I can stay semi-perminantly until august! I have a great interest in the music of Brasil (as well as the rest of the world) and would greatly appreciate any help in finding when/where is best to study Brasilian music here in Rio! :) As well as any help in finding work and somewhere to stay here in Rio!! :) :) If anyone is interested in the Brasilian music that we have got back in England then please feel free to check out my band, Ilu Axé's myspace!

PHILOSOPHY

Live for the moment and don't waste a second being unhappy because time is all you have and you may find out one day that you have less than you thought. That and always try to make others happy or put a smile on someones face!
