I'm aware that this is a cliché, but I like to meet different people and to visit new places. It's a compelling way of learning. I believe progress is born from the continuous dialogue between people with different backgrounds and points of view. Born and raised in Porto, Portugal. Currently living in Nicosia, Cyprus. https://www.instagram.com/jonatas.cleto2/?hl=pt
