About me

I was born and have always lived in Porto. Although I have a big family spread all over the country, my closest ones and best friends also live here. I have a degree in Business Administration and I've worked in Sales and Marketing for a big telecom company until 2007, when I decided to quit my job and take a year off and travel around the world. When I got back, I started a "travel tips" website for Portuguese speaking travellers and went back to university to take a Post-graduation in Tourism Management.

    Nice relaxed place just by the sea, with good food and natural juices. Best time is during summer and spring, on sunny days.

Review Friend: André

Tell us, how was your experience with this friend.

Write about your own experiences guiding as a Local Friend. You can write these on your own voice, relating the unique experiences you were able to give who was traveling with you. Example: "Last week, I guided a traveler from Spain who wanted to experience the city beyond the main attractions. We started with a quiet morning at a small coffee shop only locals know, then wandered through a street art alley where I could share the stories behind each mural. They told me it was their favorite part of the trip because it felt like discovering a secret side of the city, one they would have never found alone."
