Fernanda Lima was born on June 25th, 1977, to a big, affectionate and party lover family. With two older brothers, the Gaúcha from Porto Alegre, she grew up playing outside, collecting    great memories of afternoons in the farm, family and neighbours’ gatherings with lots of singing and chimarrão.

Her passion for sports started early: she took swimming, gymnastics, ballet, volleyball and handball… Emotional like all those born with the sun in Cancer, she still keeps her memory box, the doll house, the smell of the grass being cut during Christmas, summers on the beach in Imbé… Years full of love and simple things.
