I'm just a normal (sure?) guy who wants to finish the university, graduating in Internationa​l Relations, passionate to diplomacy, politics and economy. But I do like cool things also, really! For example, I'm completely mad for japanese things, like politics... erhm, sorry! ^^' Like Anime, Manga, Japanese POP and Rock Music, Dorama, Theatre, Books, History, Poetry and more... Yeah, Japan just drives me crazy!

Recently, Korea as been of major interest because of a very good friend I've found here, using interpals.ne​t, so if anyone else from Korea wants to talk to a Brazilian guy, for whatsoever reason, here I am! ~

AH! ~=) I love movies as well! But the most obscure and non-comercia​l ones, even if they're difficult to find. From 1920 to recent ones, I love to discuss and watch a good one, alone or with someone special to me!

I'm always willing to meet new people and help my friends, and I really want to make new friends here, including snail mail pals, if someone still wants to write some letters for distant friends instead of using skype, msn and e-Mail... =/ I hope I can find!

And, finally, talking about my new passion: photograpy! =) Although I'm taking most of the images you can see in my album with the camera of my cell phone, I'm really addicted to this new hobby! I hope I can buy a GOOD camera soon, because I want to take greater photos everyday! ^^

Friends, for e-Mail or snail mail ~ to talk about anything!

I can help people with English and Portuguese, since I am fluent in both.

Would love to learn French, because I want to be a diplomat, and Japanese and Korean, because I love asian culture. ^^

Thanks! :D

My favorite hobby is reading, and I do it a lot, because I like and because I need for the university. From romance, drama and fiction to complex academical analysis of Internationa​l Political Economy or Regional Integration on Asia. =)

I like to travel, a looooot! Have been to USA and all around Brazil (and that counts, since my country is a big one!). I want to go to United Kingdom (England, foremost) and France, as soon as I can, and of corse, Japan! =D

P H O T O G R A P H Y ~ ! *-*~ specially in black and white...

I'm quite ecletic, but I prefer pop-rock style (including japanese music!), as well as Jazz, Classical Music, and brazilian styles, like MPB and Bossa Nova. =)
