CURRENT MISSION

On a mission from God (Blues Brothers, anyone?). Nah, not that much. Just wanting to make friends and share Brazilian hospitality, and discover the world

ABOUT ME

Just a funny guy interesting in catching as much as I can from the world surrounding me. Ready for big adventures, be it taking part in the Olympic Games or investigating something for the newspaper.

PHILOSOPHY

It's all about doing the best you can do and being the best you can be - and not worrying about what the others are going to say about it.
