From the Inside Out with Sofia Cotrim

De Dentro Para Fora com Sofia Cotrim - MPL beauty

My name is Sofia , I was born in Rio de Janeiro in '79. My mother went to Brazil with my grandparents and ended up meeting my father, a true Carioca (native of Rio de Janeiro). I'm the oldest of three sisters, and I'm lucky to have them around. I was the first of my friends to get married, and this year we're approaching our 23rd anniversary. I have three wonderful children and a dog.

I'm very curious and I love crafts. I enjoy DIY, embroidery, photography, some types of painting, and cooking. They are all so different things that when I had to choose a name for my project, it could only be a name where I could put my whole world inside, and that's why I called it " Sofia's World".

I am very happy doing what I do.
