I was born in Coimbra and lived here until I entered the University of Aveiro. Later, I worked in Braga before joining Princess Cruises in 2007, where I had the chance to work with colleagues from more than 15 nationalities and travel extensively through Australia, New Zealand, North America (including Alaska and Canada), the Pacific Islands, and part of the Caribbean. It was a truly enriching life experience. After that, I worked in Argentina as a university teacher and was responsible for the Statistics Department of the Tourism Ministry. In 2019, when my mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer, I returned to Portugal to care for her, and since then I’ve been living in Coimbra, working both as a real estate agent and a language teacher.

I rarely have much free time, but when I do, what I enjoy the most is going out with family and friends, especially for outdoor activities. In the winter, I love staying in, relaxing on the sofa, and watching movies. I also really enjoy doing puzzles and playing board games whenever I have the chance.

I really enjoy helping people find the right home for their needs and lifestyle. For me, it’s very rewarding to be part of such an important decision in someone’s life. I actually started working in real estate because I was already helping people by translating and interpreting, and at first it was simply a good way to earn some extra income for my family. But now it has become so much more than that. My clients often become my friends, and my children get the chance to grow up in this wonderful multicultural environment. It feels amazing when, without me asking, people start recommending me and saying kind things — it’s truly heartfelt. I love being part of their lives and knowing I’ve contributed to their happiness.
