CURRENT MISSION

Getting to know myself

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in Macau: quite a special blend between oriental and western culture, all in a small peninsula located in the south of China. Wen I was 18 I left my hometown to study in Oporto (Portugal), where I lived for 4 years. I then came to Barcelona as an Erasmus student and finally ended up living here.

I'm a pretty discreet person (not as in shy). I tend to respect other people's opinion even if I don't agree with it. I believe in cultural plurality.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others as you wish to be treated
