Marta's love for the unknown started during a volunteer mission in Mozambique while studying Communication. That experience sparked a desire to explore the world, leading Marta to continue her studies in Macau and opening the door to adventures across Southeast Asia and China.

Driven by curiosity, Marta traveled solo across 11 European countries in 2016, relying on hitchhiking and embracing the unpredictability of the road. Afterwards, she spent eight months in Nepal teaching Portuguese, immersing herself in the local culture and learning from every experience.

Marta's journey then took her to Guinea-Bissau, where she initially joined a short-term volunteer project with children. What began as a brief mission turned into nine months working with UNICEF’s communications department, deepening Marta's love for storytelling and human connection. In 2019, Marta cycled from her home in Carnaxide all the way to Guinea-Bissau, passing through Morocco, Mauritania, and Senegal—a journey that pushed her limits and fueled her passion for adventure.

Today, Marta captures her travels through photography and video, sharing moments that inspire curiosity and connection. Whether summiting Kilimanjaro, exploring remote islands, or navigating urban jungles, every adventure is a chance to see the world differently and tell its stories.
