Hi, I’m Gonçalo
I’ve lived in Lisbon for 33 years
I speak English, Spanish, Portuguese
I am a Student
I lived several years in London, working as a Landscape Architect, before coming back to Lisbon, where I am from originally. I started a master's in sociology because I am fascinated by how the ideas of cities are constructed socially as well as by the spaces where we gather and how that transforms the way we live as a community. I am interested in everything human, from the history of ideas to technology, film, and literature, and fascinated by all creative endeavors people take part in. I am innately curious and enjoy meeting people and understanding them. I know Lisbon quite well as well as its history and enjoy walking around the city, having been a tour guide for friends many times.
