− I am Tina. I am a good-looking woman. I am not very tall, and I am a little fat, chubby, I mean. I am young, I am just 41 years old (but I feel so energetic that I sometimes think that I am 21, actually). I am not selfish. I am never rude. I am clever and friendly. My family and friends say that. Oh, I am always very polite, too.

− My husband, Joseph, is very intelligent, wise and pleasant. He is a lawyer, and he works at a famous office downtown. He is married, for sure, and he is 41 years old, too. He’s from Brazil and all his family is Brazilian. They are originally from Salvador. He’s tall, a little fat and handsome. Yes, he’s a handsome man. He’s very jealous and possessive... just kidding!
