The Brandenburger Gate during the Festival of Lights Berlin 2010:

"Gente Andina"

In July, 2001, I went on a trip to Bolivia and Peru to register the natives' day-to-day life with an old Pentax K1000.

A few months later, 40 of those pictures became part of Gente Andina (Andean People), an exhibition held in two universities, one school and one shopping mall in Maringá, my hometown in Brazil. Here are some scanned photos:

Caricatures 4

Laís Kalka deixa a chefia da redação latino-americana depois de vários anos na Deutsche Welle. Mesmo caindo de pára-quedas nesse momento histórico, também lhe dei um a lembrança de despedida.

Internship at Deutsche Welle

About 3 years after I sent my first application, I finally managed to come to Bonn, Germany, and do an internship at Deutsche Welle. The pictures show the Latin American team.

Halloween

Have you ever pictured yourself working in such a nice environment like this one? Here are some co-workers and I at ILAC today. By the way, I'm Superilac!

Rocky Mountains

Rafting with the staff

That's us!

This could be a volleyball team if:

- Silvana (left), from São Paulo (BRA), had decided to join us

- Bjoern (on my right side), aus Deutschland, didn't stop each 2 minutes to drink beer

- Tim (in front) was sober

But still, this is indeed a nice group of friends having fun yesterday at Jericho Beach after a week of work and hard study (with lots of yellow cards!).

Just in time: Let's congratulate the great TIM for his 33rd birthday. Today!

Ilac

Todas as segundas-feiras chegam novos alunos na Ilac, onde trabalho. Vindos de várias partes do mundo, eles contribuem pra formação de uma atmosfera amigável e, no mínimo, interessante, na escola de inglês.

Hoje, chegaram quase 130 estudantes. Pelo que me lembro, havia brasileiros, mexicanos, colombianos, coreanos, chineses, húngaros, uma russa, israelenses, um alemão, sauditas, provavelmente algum venezuelano também... e por aí vai. Aí na foto estou com o grupo na hora do almoço. Eita, trabalho bom, né?!

Colosseo by night

This is one of the most gorgeous places I've ever seen. But once you go to Rome, don't forget to see it AT NIGHT! The picture was taken last December.

O Diário

Marcelo Bulgarelli, the editor of Culture of O Diário do Norte do Paraná, and me, reporter.

Gosh, how do I look with braces?!
