About Me

I am a brazilian girl. I love peace and nature. I love to play drums and to dance to music from Brazil like samba, maracatu, coco, frevo, ciranda.I am drummer from Maracatu Leão Coroado. The Maracatu Leão Coroado (Crowned Lion) is the most traditional maracatu in continuous activity today in Pernambuco. It was founded in 1863 in Recife, still during the period of slavery. site: www.leaocoroado.org.brI like to talk, to meet other people, to share ideas and opinions, to think about different ways of seeing the world. Because when a lot of people from different countries and different cultures meet, new ideas are born. I want to make friends.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Nice people.
