My name is Zilfran, I’m from Fortaleza, state of Ceará - Brazil.
I have some passions: my family, traveling and meeting places and people, freedom, nature and my job.
My family is my structure. My wife and daughters are my greatest wealth and the best company for all things, especially walks and trips.
About my profession, I define that I help people fulfill their dreams: I am a teacher. My job is to give classes to young people who will try to enter a university course.
Here in Brazil, to enter a college, there is a very rigid selection process and not everyone gets a place in the higher course that they want and to follow the profession of their dreams.
To get a seat in dream college requires a lot of dedication and study.
I stay very happy to contribute with the conquest of the dreams of young people, so I dedicate myself to my classes and above all i encourage the desires to learn and to know, to truly make their lives an eternal learning.
I prepare my classes with lots of love. I teach and learn with my students.
I also teach at the University for future teachers.
For these students, I try to encourage the development of teaching strategies, share experiences and talk about the wonders of being a teacher.
Another wonder of my job is that I travel a lot to give lectures and attend educational events. In these trips Google Maps is a fundamental partnership.
I love nature and freedom. Surf is my favorite sport. I feel happy, free and connected with nature when I am surfing. I love to admire plants and animals.
I grow flowers in my house to admire and receive visits from butterflies and hummingbirds. I put food for the birds, to admire your beauty and its song. I like to see them free and happy.
This post shows the photo from the back of my house. This area of my house represents much of what I love: nature, freedom and the way I understand what we should do to bring people closer to us. Plant flowers around you, has a good smell, be nice and let people be free to want to get to approach to you.
I consult Google all the time. In my tours and trips, I always look at Google because the photos and ratings of the places are very useful and help a lot to know more about the places.
One day, just over two years ago, a friend taught me how to share photos and ratings on Maps. I immediately acquired this new habit!
I began to photograph and evaluate places, products and food to collaborate and also do my part.
I quickly fell in love with the habit, mainly because of its importance to inform the people. I started to want to collaborate more and more, because these divulgations also allow to increase the knowledge of all. I am very happy to know that all the time there are people looking at my photos and learning a little more about places I visit or wonderful foods that I experience.
My photos already have more than 4 million views !!!
It’s a pleasure to combine my passions acting a Google Local Guide !!!
