Hey!! :)

My name is Inês and I am from Lisbon, Portugal (Great city and country by the way!!).
I was born in Macao, China and moved to Europe when I was 5. Maybe because of those early travels, I always felt at home in so many different places around the world.

I am currently studying Computer Science Engineering but what I really love is arts and creativity.
I have recently been in Trondheim, Norway, for an exhange semester and I coulnd´t be more happy! Hiking, exploring, partying and meeting amazing people around the globe (with lots of snow to contrast Lisbon sun).

I love to meet new people and learn new perspectives! From hiking high mountains, partying until sunrise, seeing exhibitions, going to a trance festival, having a yoga day, we can find something!
Hope we can share great experiences with each other!
Life is calling! See you around :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh! , what a world. So many!
But summing up

Books:
Those that teach something and those that have beautiful new ways of thinking or just bring other perspectives to the table.
I generally read books that were recommended to me by good friends. If you have any suggestions I would love to hear them!! :)

Recently read:
The unbearable lightness of being, Milan Kundera
The little book of hygge, the danish way to live well, Meik Wiking

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have done volunteering with children in Sri Lanka for one month and it was maybe the best experience in my life.
I have provided assistance in a kindergarden and done several projects for highschool kids for teaching english.
I also met some of what now are my best friends, (my Lebanese family!)
I can´t explain what I felt that month but I can tell that it brought up so many of what I am today,
