Tradutor que às vezes também escreve e edita. Lê e escreve sobre o que lê num blogue azul. Ocasionalmente mal-humorado, em especial quando lhe põem likes em progressos de leitura (a sério: para quê? Porque há de o facto de se ter lido mais x páginas merecer um like?). Preferia que o mundo fosse melhor e tenta fazer por isso. Gosta de rir. —— Translator who also writes and publishes, sometimes. Reads, and writes about his readings on a blue blog. Grumpy on occasion, particularly when someone likes a progress update (seriously: what for? Why on Earth would the fact that n new pages have been read merit a like?). He would rather the world be better, and tries to help making it so. Enjoys laughter.
