About me
“Advertising and marketing are the foundation of all my professional training. I started climbing mountains at 19, more precisely in the Estrela Sierra, and I haven’t stopped since.
Throughout this time I´ve collected peaks in three continents, including Mont Blanc and Cursed in the Alps, the Posets, Lost and Aneto in the Pyrenees, Sierra de Gredos in Spain, the Elbrus in the Caucasus, and Kilimanjaro, M‘goun and Toubkal in Africa. In Portugal, I walked all the major parks and climbed all the major mountains, including the Pico in the Azores. Because the outdoors is part of my DNA, I decided to embrace this project and what began as a prank has become a serious pursuit.
Thanks to Walk Hike Portugal I´ve met the real Sintra Sierra, its people, it’s secular histories and deep mysteries, and I’ve fallen in love with this little sierra, undoubtedly one of the most beautiful I know.
More recently, with the launch of our new brands – Walk Trekking, Walk Historical Villages, Walk Azores – I also had the opportunity to meet a more authentic and genuine side of these amazing landscapes, together with their people and ancient culture. Come and meet it with us”.
Besides being a partner at Walk Hike Portugal, Francisco is our marketing man. He is also one of our most experienced guides and his availability is a plus for the walks in which he participates.
