In The Mood for Life

Portugal captured me ever since I moved to Lisbon in the summer of 2017, and since 2019, I've embarked on creating and producing an extensive video series on Youtube, documenting the beauty, diversity, historical and cultural depth of this unassuming yet riveting country in this part of the Iberian Peninsula.

From the sun-dappled, shimmering southern coastal region of Algarve to the vast, rural, and tranquil landscapes of Alentejo and the Beiras, to the glittering historical glories of the cities of Lisbon, Coimbra and Porto, right up to the northern mountainous ranges of Douro, Gerês and the Minho, and all the way to the less-explored archipelago of the Azores, this documentary series will simultaneously inspire and convince you to see and experience Portugal in a new light.

This luminous country shaped by its own unique story, defined by the breadth of its landscapes, its richly historic presence, gastronomic delights, and its serene yet dramatic identity, all viewed from the lens and autobiographical perspective of a video creator, from the glass half-full philosophy of a foreigner, an outsider, who fell in love with Portugal.
