My pictureI’m Roberto Teixeira, and this is my little neck of the proverbial woods.

About me

I find it uncomfortable to write about myself, but let’s give it a try, shall we?

I’m a very proud & happy father and husband. I’m semi-nomadic: even before leaving my native Brazil, I already used to move a lot. My passion has always been astrophysics, which was going to be my major except at the time I relinquished to my parents pressure and went into Computer Science instead. That’s probably why I love writing about science and skepticism. I’m also a recovering social-phobic.
