My past as a teacher has led me to realize that the gaze of others enriches mine, so I feel a natural empathy for people from different backgrounds and cultures. I appreciate a warm smile, a stimulating brainstorming, the beauty of things, a good book, eclectic music, the sea and the sky, and traveling all the time. The diversity of the other has always fascinated me by the richness of points of view and different ways of approaching one's life. Thus, receiving people from the four corners of the world is therefore a privilege and a form of personal enrichment. As hostess I planned the Architect House with a touch of romanticism, simplicity and lightness to offer comfortable and happy stays. I will feel fulfilled if I can achieve that goal.O meu passado de professora levou-me a perceber que o olhar do outro enriquece o meu pelo que sinto natural empatia por pessoas de diferentes origens e culturas donde resultam experiências estimulantes.Aprecio um sorriso caloroso, a beleza das coisas, um bom livro, música eclética, o mar e o céu e viajar sempre. Como anfitriã planeei Architect House para proporcionar estadias confortáveis e felizes. Sentir-me-ei realizada se atingir tal objetivo.
