About Me

CURRENT MISSION
to think, to explore...

ABOUT ME
I was born in Lisbon and I've lived near all my life, except for an erasmus year in Paris.
The world is big and there's a lot of beautiful places to be found. Every opportunity to travel is an unique opportunity to know a bit more.

I like good jazz and good BD. I like to see big winter waves, thunderstorms, to ear good life stories, to run in places with lots of trees, to read a good book and to go to the theater.

PHILOSOPHY
"Marin, tu chériras toujours la Mer" - Hugo Pratt

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been in Amazonia some years ago.. It was amazing to feel myself in a place so pure, where society almost didn't touched. The feeling of being surrounded by miles and miles of trees is definitely special. During the night, the only lights you see are the ones from the stars and from the thousands and thousands of fireflies that shine in the dark forest. During the day we walked in the forest discovering strange animals and plants, we row in the river in little canoes, we fished piranhas and we swim in the river while botos (the river dolphins) dived close to us. It's a place where we feel little facing the big force of that unknown nature.
