Raquel was born in Lisbon but her thirst for knowledge and curiosity has taken her all around the world. She holds a BA in International Relations, a Masters in Strategic Tourism Management and Postgraduate studies in Religious Tourism.
She has lived most of her life in Lisbon, but she has also studied in Paris and lived in London, Luxembourg and even on a cruise ship that visited places as distant and exotic as Iceland or Lebanon.
Raquel's love for learning has also lead her to teaching and she has been a Lecturer at Lusófona University in Lisbon and has been invited as guest Lecturer in other Universities around Europe.
