About Me

CURRENT MISSION

half-marathon

ABOUT ME

I'm a 23 years old graphic designer. I've been living in Porto since I was born, so I can say I know the city pretty well.
My major interests include photography, traveling, and cooking vegan and vegetarian food. I adore cooking and I see culinary as field in which I can also practice my photography skills.
Also, I've been finding out I enjoy running, and to participate in a full-marathon is definitively something I'd like to accomplish in the upcoming years, mostly because of its psychological benefits.
You'll find out more about me as soon as we meet, since I'm not very good at describing myself.

PHILOSOPHY

stoicism
