ABOUT ME
Friendly and easy going guy originally from Brazil who has been living in England for over 10 years. I love sports and music - I practice Capoeira and I play the guitar but just for fun :)
PHILOSOPHY
We should treat others the same way we want them to treat us.
"Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend." ― Bruce Lee

Music, Movies, and Books
I listen to a big variety of music. My mp3 folder has hundreds of different styles :) If I had to pick a favourite style I would say brazilian popular music and a variation of samba (there are many!).

Teach, Learn, Share
Capoeira is a Brazilian martial art that combines elements of dance, acrobatics, fight and music, and is sometimes referred to as a game. It was developed in Brazil mainly by African descendants with native Brazilian influences, probably beginning in the 16th century. It is known for quick and complex moves, using mainly power, speed, and leverage for a wide variety of kicks, spins, and highly mobile techniques.
