I will never forget the surfboard that got me into surfing. It was not a board like the ones I see today in fancy surf shops. It was the most important object I owned in my life. I was born in Porto, the city that gave the name to the oldest country in Europe – Portugal. Today, Porto is a trendy town blessed by the iconic Douro River and the Atlantic Ocean. It has always been a great place to live with all its history, food and wine tradition, and cultural splendor. It’s a city with its own charisma and only a two-hour flight from London and Paris.
