I was born and raised in São Miguel island, and lived all my life in the Azores archipelago and trully am proud of being an "islander". With a deep knowledge of São Miguel's culture, history, traditions and general information, but also the Azores Islands in general. Even if in different areas, not only as a Tour Guide, I've worked in the tourism industry for over 10 years. In 2019 I was invited, by my former Highschool, to be a Juri Member for that year's "Rural and Environmental Tourism Professional" class' final presentation/exam. I can offer my tours in 5 languages. My hobbies include photography and traveling, therefore my goal is always to be the kind of guide I like to have on my own travels. RRAAT nº20/2019/RAA Due to physical limitations my tours will not include long hikes, only shorts walks up to around 3km (City Tour)
