Lives in London, United Kingdom
We are very sociable and enjoy spending time with friends, family and our beloved Bengal cats in London and Lisbon, the cities we love and call 'home'.
We're passionate about food and often enjoy dining out or cooking for friends and family at home.
Travel is another big passion of ours as we relish delving into different cultures, making friends and exploring new lands.
We are avid music lovers who regularly attend live shows and appreciate a wide range of music from around the world, both classic and contemporary from blues to bangra!
We both take a keen interest in history, current world affairs and social anthropology. To this extent, reading, exhibitions, organised talks and long late-night conversations with friends over wine is a way we explore and expand our understanding of this crazy wonderful world!
