About me

Female resting legs on a train seat with backpack

I’m an experienced EFL teacher from the south of Brazil. I love traveling to isolated places and navigating the web. I take a special interest in photography (especially landscape photography) and podcasting. I also have a few blogs and sites that you can find on the ELT projects page.


Three quotes about travel that I would like to share…

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime.”
― Mark Twain, The Innocents Abroad/Roughing It

“I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move.”
― Robert Louis Stevenson, Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes

“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.”
― Augustine of Hippo
