Olá,
My name
is Marina and I was born in Portugal. I may say that I have a nationalist heart
and an international mind.
Some
years ago I was studying Sociology, in the university, and I understood that if
you want to understand a society you cannot only read books: you have to
travel. In that time, I decided to leave my country and get out of my comfort
zone. Since there I already travelled in several European and African
countries.
I think
seeing new persons and new cultures is necessary for opening minds, to create
new ideas and to start refusing old ones. I also think it is necessary to have
already an open mind to start travelling, because to travel like a tourist it
is easy but as a traveller it is not.
People,
animals, music, poetry and all kinds of Art are some of the things that make my
heart beat faster. Small things, little details, old stuff... I like books,
psychology, philosophy, sociology and everything that makes me think and doubt.
All the
time I love to know more, the knowledge plus experience are the best way to do
something, to start improving the world around us and to start changing.
I can
say I do not like routines and I do not like the idea that this
"modern" society has about time. In fact, I think our social rhythm,
in these days, is crazy!
We are
forgetting many important principles and our priorities are getting extremely bizarre.
I do not stand this capitalism system and all the injustice we are witnessing
and I will stand up against that every time I can, through protests, conversations
but mainly small attitudes.
That's
it ;) Good energies for you.
