My name is Patrícia Patriarca and I was born in a small town on the coast of Portugal in 1980. It was in 2017 that I fulfilled my dream and published Não há finais felizes at Chiado Editora. I was able to combine my passion for travelling with my love for writing and published Diário de uma portuguesa em Angola (2019) and Diário de uma Portuguesa por aqui e por ali (2021), 
all with Chiado Editora. I use social media a lot to write short texts , because I think it’s a good platform through which to reach people. It is in writing that I find my place in the world.
