Introduction Born in the beautiful seaside fisherman-converted-to-posh village of Cascais (Portugal) in 1982, my family moved soon after to Curitiba and Florianopolis(Brazil)in the hope of finding a better lifestyle. When I turn 5 we moved again to a village called Sete, close to Montpellier (France). I spent my first school years in a portuguese catholic school in which i've got kicked out for apparently being a rebel (thank GOD!) So i enrolled in a Spanish school by the age of 9, where i spent some of the best years of my life! Studied Arts in high school, first in Lisbon and grade 12 in Algarve. Albufeira (Algarve) became my "home" by the age of 17, as there's where I find my emotional bond with the land and the lifestyle. After a few years working in architecture firms, and my whole life learning from the best - my dad, I came to Australia to study Architecture... I'm in my 3rd year now, and even tough it's hard-working, I couldn't love it more :) Love to travel. Obviously. Thirst of knowledge. Rebel. Independent. Temperamental. Extremely against injustice. ...
