The most wonderful smell for you?

The smell of the sea

The most beautiful place you have ever been?

Portugal's nature

What scares you?

When society becomes more narrow minded 

Where is your favourite place?

Any quiet place close to the sublimity of water

What heirloom is important to you?

The stories told by my family about my grandparents 

What do you learn most from theatre/music...?

The importance of human connections, that come forth out of the silences

Heroes of your youth?

Malala and Ghandi

Why music?

Because it connects people in an unselfish way

Your most beautiful farewell?

After a period spent with friends, making music and sharing dinners

What do you like about yourself?

My ability to relativate and my resilience
