CURRENT MISSION: Learn with people

I'm PORTUGUESE and I'm very proud of it. I'm little bit shy, but after a while I'm quite talkative. Definetly a good listener! Love to travel and be a backpacker! Well who doesn't?

PHILOSOPHY

I'd rather be hated for hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not
