I'm naturally from Portugal where I studied Food and Nutrition Science and did a Masters Degree in Nutrition Clinic, I have now 14 years of working experience in the UK.

Besides work, I love to cook delicious and healthy meals and to share those recipes on my social media to inspire others to do the same. I also enjoy travelling to Madeira every year to visit my family and going for walks.

I have a special interest for Egyptian food, introduced by my Egyptian husband. So I decided to write a recipe book of Egyptian food (currently available in Portuguese).
