Overview
About Me
Born and raised in the beautiful Madeira Island, I am passionate about nature and the ocean.
I grew up doing many types of sports (athletics, handball, volleyball...) and I have always been very curious about the deep questions of life. That is why I engaged in a Master in Physics and Astrophysics, to understand better the world and the stars and the planets.
I have lived in Lisbon for 5 years to study and 6 months in the Netherlands for an internship. I am a very respectful person, always eager to help and to connect with people from all over the world. I
I have travelled to some countries mostly in Europe, and my dream is to travel to and explore New Zealand. I am also into solo traveling and I want to do it more and more.
