Born in Alentejo, Portugal, in the vastness of the plains, where sometimes only the song of cicadas can be heard, she grew up amidst the silence, the smell of the earth, the animals... Always curious to know what was beyond the horizon, beyond where your eyes could see.
It was this curiosity that led her to the History Course and opened the doors to teaching.
Later, and because her passion for books has been with her since she learned to read, she specialized in School Library Management.
