travel
I enjoy working in both offices and remote sites. I professionally visited several cities in China, in Indonesia, the UAE, Singapore.
Tanzania and South Africa can be called home for me. Zambia has no secret for me. My next curiosity is Angola and Mozambique, as I already gained more language skills to move from beginner to intermediate speaker of the Portuguese Language, keeping in mind the advance level for mid 2025. I hope then to check on the LOBITO and BEIRA corridors.
