About Me

DEAR CSERS,

Welcome to Abu Dhabi! I'm living in the UAE for 3 years.

@remote_water (my project)

Hi,

I am Sonia born in Porto, Portugal.

I lived 1 year in Hong Kong, 6 years in Barcelona, in Dublin (3 years), about 1 year in Greece (Thessaloniki and Athens), 3 months in Tanzania and 2 years in Dubai. I am into Science, the beach, dancing, sports, cooking (I prefer vegetables rather than meat) and learning languages.
