– What’s your idea of a perfect day?
I wake up in the morning and get myself a beer (the future is uncertain and the end is always near). So I let it roll. With my baby. And we roll all night long. Forget feeding animals in the zoo.

The arrival of the first Portuguese to Macau.

Impossible question. From the Tales of Poe to The Castle of Kafka, from Les Fleurs du Mal to The Book of Disquiet, from Leaves of Grass to Anti-Oedipe, from Arabian Nights to La Peau du Chagrin de Balzac, there are seas and continents of volumes and volumes that I deeply love. 
 
– And your favorite singer/ band?
Jim Morrison / The Doors.

Camões.

Love.
