I'm half-Italian​, half-Portugu​ese, was born in Venezuela, grew up for a considerable​ portion of my life in the US, and recently returned from Germany, where I spent about a year. I am a cultural chameleon: I am at home in many places and in no place, and I'm comfortable with that.

2. Surprise me.

4. Cats.

Languages; philosophy; meeting new people; weightliftin​g and cardio training; reading; music; jewelry and metalwork; dancing; and travel.

I listen to quality music, regardless of genre. Lately I'm listening a lot to Joanna Newsom, Johnny Cash, Counting Crows, The Killers, Muse, Caramelos de Cianuro,  Yael Naim, etc.

I've been learning Classical Gas by Mason Williams on the guitar lately.

My favorite music to dance to is hip hop, followed by merengue.
