When I joined Second Life in 2006, I would never imagine that I could get so far. It has been a unique experience to know people from all over the world, sharing knowledge, educating myself, making friendships and contributing to make this virtual world a little greater.
A little about me: I come from a small country in Europe, Portugal, where I live. In a distant historical past, Portuguese were explorers and one of the first world big distant navigators. Maybe I'm carrying an unexplained gene in me that makes me want to keep exploring unknown new worlds.
It has been a real privilege for the past two years to come across so many talented and creative people, and I'm honored to be in a project with some of them.
It's really amazing how Second Life brought down the barriers, whether physical, whether cultural, and I have no doubt that this universe will certainly make me a better man.
In real life, I have a degree in Musical Sciences, and I've been always been fascinated with technology and information. After I finished college, I worked for two years in a Musical Information Center as a documentalist, a bibliographic researcher. I had known many librarians at the time, and I decided that I really wanted to do librarianship as a way of living, so I decided to go back to school and I took a technician course for librarians. I now work as an academic librarian and also have a part-time position, as a librarian as well, in a School of Image and Communication in Lisbon.
Besides being the Publisher of RezLibris in Second Life, I was also a builder in some projects (and I kind of miss that), and I carry a dream of making a small baroque theater in Second Life... who knows, one day...? |
