MY STORY

Once upon a time there was a Portuguese "sardine" who, every now and then, gets full of her tiny can, and needs to go and live adventures. Through these adventures, the sardine discovered that what makes a place are their people and their stories, but also found that reaching the locals and give them the space to share stories is not easy.

That sardine? Well, that’s me!

Hi, I'm Ana🌻 - a science lover 🔬, travel enthusiast ⛺ , and

a certified heritage interpretation guide 🗺️.

What truly makes me happy is sharing local stories in the local with locals.

Here, I’ll bring you the voice of the places, share their tales and the people who call them home.

Remember... the real stories rarely make it into the guidebooks.
