Hello! Before anything else, I'd like to say that I don't like so much to use italki's "chat now" and will rarely do so. So I'd prefer if you use italki's "send message" or the blackboard when you wish to talk to me. I will try and reply as soon as possible. Thank you for understanding.


I am a Portuguese girl, allthough my background is african.

Japanese is one of the languages I am currently learning and probably the one I've been paying more attention to lately. (Mainly by self-teaching).

I like to read manga and watch anime, that is how I firstly got introduced to the japanese language and culture.

I came to be generally interested about japan's culture and people, and so now-a-days I am looking forward to be more interactive and not just stick to what the books say.

I am also very fluent in english since I've been daily speeking in english since 2002.

I hope I can learn from you all and help as far as I can about the cultures and languages I study.
