I am a Fine Arts student majoring in painting.

I am from Portugal, and dream of travelling the world.

Photography has always been a passion, and last year I finally had my first SLR Nikon camera, with which I dreamt of since I can remember.

The travel bug bit quite early as well, but the first trip I clearly remember, was to Paris when I was just 12.

Writing is a new-found outburst, and definitely so is blogging.

This blog was initially meant to be all travel related, but as of now, it does not have such a label. Nevertheless, it will probably be almost exclusively related to it, dreams, plans and past experiences with travel.

If you would like to see some more of my Photography work, you can check out my photography portfolio.

If you wish to contact me, to ask me any questions or propose any collaborations feel free to e-mail me at – preconceptblog@gmail.com
