Someone with a big passion for traveling and getting to know other cultures and people. I was born and raised in Braga, a city for which I have a huge enthusiasm for its history and cultural offerings. I'm currently working as a football coach (and I'm a surf begginer), and live in the city center, which makes me feel extremely connected to it.
