About me
About me
I arrived in Lisbon in 2000, straight from Porto Alegre, Brasil. Living abroad was a dream I had since I was a child. First I thought of becoming a diplomat, and that's why I started the Law School. But soon I found out that diplomacy life was boring and then I gave up.
When I graduated in Law, I had to do something to not become a lawyer, so I came to Lisbon. Lisbon would not be my first choice, but it welcomed me so strongly since the very beginning that my roots here became thicker. So, although I am always travelling everywhere and always wishing to live anywhere else, I am always happy to come back to Lisbon.
Why Lisbon?
- It's not a big city compared to other European capitals, but here you can find endless things to do;
- The river, the castle and the hills;
- Everybody loves coming to Lisbon;
- I love touring my friends around the city, and never get tired of doing it!

Burger invasion

L'Éclair
French guilty pleasures
"L'Éclair" in Lisbon is just another French patisserie with eclairs. I don't like eclairs - but the ones they make here I love. Crispy, dry and soft...

Light, water and magic

Aguas Livres Aqueduct
Walking into history
"Aguas Livres Aqueduct": one of the few great buildings in Lisbon that didn't collapse in the 1755 earthquake. Walking on it is an amazing experience.
