DESCRIBE YOURSELF

Physically speaking, as you can see, I’m thin, I’m not very tall, I
have short, black hair and dark eyes. It is always harder to describe
ourselves psychologically, and sometimes we can sound arrogant,
but I can give it a try. I’m very hard working; I search my goals with
lots of determination. I’m also a very ethical, honest and reliable
person. You’ll never see me lying or harming someone to take
advantage from it. I can also say that I’m a little bit shy, but once
you get to know me better you’ll see that I’m also very funny.

DESCRIBE YOUR FAMILY

I should say that right now, my family is just my girlfriend and I.

We’re not officially married, but we live together in our apartment
as husband and wife. We have been living together for about a year
now, and since we don’t intend to have a wedding, we consider
ourselves already married. But I also have my mother, my little 8-
year-old brother and my aunts living in my hometown, Piracicaba.
They are also my family, but I only see them every three weeks. My
father is unfortunately already departed.

DESCRIBE YOUR HOME

I live together with my girlfriend in a 48-square-meter apartment. It

is very tiny, but also comfortable. I would say it fits our needs for
the moment. The living room occupies almost half of the space.
There is also a bedroom, a bathroom, a small kitchen and a laundry.
Although there is carpet on the floor, most of the times it is very
cold inside. That’s because we hardly have sunshine through our
windows. The walls are painted in yellow and they are decorated
with butterfly paintings, because my girlfriend just loves them.

DESCRIBE SOME OF YOUR INTERESTS

I’m very interested in other cultures. That means I enjoy learning
foreign languages, eating typical food and specially traveling. I
don’t have enough time and money to travel as much as I wanted,
but that’s my favorite hobby.
Another passion of mine is music. I hear it every single day. I would
say that rock is my favorite music style, but lately I’m also hearing
some of electronic music.
It’s also worthy to say that I’m very interested in movies. I love
going to the movie theaters or simply watching them at home on
DVDs.

DESCRIBE YOUR JOB

I’m graduated as a mechanical engineer and I’m currently working

as an assistant buyer at the purchasing department of Peugeot-
Citroen, the famous French automobile manufacturer. My main
duties are to search and accomplish ways to reduce the costs of our
existing vehicles and also develop with our suppliers the materials
and components of our new projects. I enjoy it because it enables me
to be in contact with lots of suppliers and to learn about all the
components of a vehicle.

DESCRIBE YOUR STUDIES

I always enjoyed mathematics and physics, so I chose to study

mechanical engineering at the university. I’m glad of my choice,
because as an engineer I’m able to work in several fields of industry.
I studied at Unicamp, University of Campinas and graduated about 2
years ago. I intend to continue my studies and do an MBA soon, but
I’m not sure yet which majoring should I take. I also studied several
foreign languages. Besides English, I also studied German, Spanish
and French.
