Hi, I'm MaΓra. Welcome to my blog :) This is my little corner of the internet, where I write about whatever I feel like. My dogs, recipes, travels, trading struggles, piano progress, learning to draw, baking bread, life...

A few random facts
- π‘ I'm a futures trader. Before that, I was a frontend developer. Before that, a professional wedding photographer and videographer. And before that, a video editor in the TV and film industry. I think I finally found my thing, I like trading enough that I can see myself doing it until I get super old.
- πΏ I watch a lot of movies but I'm not a Godard-or-nothing kind of girl. I like everything from silly comedies and super hero movies to French Nouvelle Vague. I can also rewatch the same thing many times.
- π I've lived in five countries: Brazil, Chile, France, Sweden and Spain. π¬ I speak fluently five languages: Brazilian Portuguese, English, Spanish, Swedish, French. I'm entirely self-taught in English. I'm also learning Esperanto.
- π I am a proud atheist and freethinker!
- πΉ I'm self-learning the piano since Jan. 2021 with the help of an online piano course. Progress has slowed down immensely, after four years I'm still only around Grade 2. I really should commit to playing a bit each day.
