Sara Leite has been is almost all average-liberal faculties in Lisbon, but has only graduated from one. Let’s be clear: she is not paranoid, she is just an anthropologist. Amongst other things, she already woke up in Mexico City as an english teacher. Was fun. But lonely. But now she is already sick of seeing you. Anyway… at this moment you can find her serving coffees in any of those more or less gourmets spots. But is cool. There are more annoying things. Like being enrolled in one of the faculties mentioned above.
