I'm from Portugal, more precisely I live near the capital, Lisbon, to where I commute all workdays from my house in Sao Joao do Estoril, on the beatifull Estoril Coast.
I'm mostly a moody thematic player, that means that a game must be dripping with theme, or no theme at all. There's few games that sit in the middle of this definition that I really like. My thrill is to have a good time while playing, for this the theme, the players I game with and the place all must come together for the perfect gaming experience to take place, so I may come back home with a smile in my face.
My wife is almost a dream come true. She isn't a gamer, doesn't like to play much but lets me go on with this hobby of mine. My son (10 years old at this time) is starting to be corrupted by my influence

.
I try to help others on to the hobby, allways pushing and pulling everyone around. On this account many have been corrupted by my ways, getting to know the games beyond (insert 'm' or 'r' word of game here).
One of my dreams is the possibility to go to one good convention (BGG.CON would be great). This day will only may come true on the day I find a next door convention of Barbie dolls for my wife. If you know somewhere where this happens please drop me a line!!

Another of my passions is taking photos of everywhere I pass by, you may check some of my albuns
