Job:
On the ship, I'm working as a deckhand... In my "normal life" I used to run four shops in Brazil - I did that for seven years but I wasn't happy anymore. So, I sold my business, took out my savings and ran away to New Zealand to spend a year away from my country and try to find my own way... what I really want to do with my life.
How did you come to be on this Rainbow Warrior for this trip?
Since I left Brazil everything in my life has happened very quickly, so I was in a pizzeria in Devonport (Auckland) when I met some people from the Rainbow Warrior crew - three days later I was working on board the Rainbow Warrior.
Essential survival item for spending time on the Rainbow Warrior?
Seasickness pills... for sure!
If you were marine animal, which one would you be?
Dolphin - because they seem more free than other animals. They can travel anywhere in the sea - to the middle of the ocean or the coasts. And they seem to be always smiling.
To people reading the weblog:
Life is to short to be wasted... if you are unhappy with yours maybe it's because you are on the wrong path, so take a chance and try to change. You'll need courage to do that but when you try, life will help you find your way... please, don't be worried all the time... try to do your best!
I'm still looking for my way, but I can fell I'm closer, now. As you can see, I'm on the Rainbow Warrior... one of my dreams came true.
Certa vez num bosque me deparai com dois caminhos diferentes. E eu... eu escolhi o menos viajado. E isto fez toda a diferença
