About Me

CURRENT MISSION

see, listen, feel, smell, taste, try, live, breathe, grab, play as much as possible of this awesome planet in which we live in

ABOUT ME

I had never spent more than a month away from home, when I decided to head all the way from the northeast of Brazil to the biggest city of Japan on the other side of the planet, almost 4 years ago. I was so overwhelmed by all the new tastes, sounds, colors, and beauty; by all the people with unforeseen life stories, amazing personalities, unbelievably welcoming hearts... now I can't get enough of it!
I am officially a geek with love for games and technology, studied computer science and games. Unofficially I
(1) love languages (including my mother tongue): love the little epiphanies when you finally realize what a certain expression means, the phonetic connections between very different languages, different writing systems, and even grammar. Yes, grammar.
(2) I practiced kung fu for almost 6 years
(3) I have a new love for soul/disco/funk music and I was dancing soul and house in Japan when I was there :D No technique, just pure passion.

Even though I am looking for some sort of stability (I've been moving around since July without a proper base), I really want to travel and meet different people as much as I can.

PHILOSOPHY

Love what you're doing is a must, but remember that no path is painless. You just need to choose what kind of pain suits you better :)
