Sneak a Peak Into My (not so serious) Life.
I was missing this routine. It’s time to sit and create something I feel inside.
Something that can give me the thrill of publishing into the unknown.
I’m a 20 years old Brazilian Software Engineer that dropped out college to travel and work as volunteer in a Greek Tech Startup.
This alone is enough for me to be proud of myself.
I was initially wondering about what would I do if I had everything I need. And then I realized that I would continue to be who I essentially am.
It is part of what I felt today.
External things only increase the feelings already inside us.
But I might tell my story because people need to know that we are one,
and you are all beautiful too.
When the AIESEC opportunity came out, I knew it was the right thing to do.
I sold my car, got a passport, booked a flight, then packed my stuff.
Now I find myself in a completely different place. I’m living in Portugal, anxiously waiting for day 15/01. When I’ll go to Athens and start working.
I consider myself very lucky and experienced for someone with 20 years old. Because my “serious” life started early, I got the opportunity to develop areas in life that not every person have.
And this is why I’m sharing as I go.
I’ve worked as a Software Developer in amazing places that taught me a lot:
- The Brazilian Monitoring System for Electronic Ankles,
- The Medialab/UnB,
- The Brazilian Space Agency.
By working in those places I learned that it’s much better to leave a trail of light and love where you go. To approach the culture and provide value.
Like picking trash on the street. Making the place better than you found it.
I also realized that if I want something, I only need to apply concentrated effort and the results will come. What can I say? I somehow know that.
“The future is lived, not imagined”
Facts about Me:
I was one of the firsts in my high school to be accepted in University.
For 2 years I lived in an apartment with 2 friends.
I have 2 very experienced older brothers.
I’m on the highway to enlightenment.
And I love learning. My brain is like a sponge.
I realized that it’s actually beautiful to be here in the planet earth. Just by being my own I can make things better than they were before.
I still need healing of course, but it turns out to be easier than ever to increase the overall awareness of people that surround me. It’s true that sometimes it becomes overwhelming. That’s when I fill my own cup to then overflow.
We cannot help from an inferior place. I realized that the frequency needs to be increased in order to awaken others and make them realize how much more there is to experience besides pleasures and ordinary activities.
It’s liberating to go into nature and to be unique. I needed this to help others.
