Raquel Fernandes

I was born in Guimarães, Portugal, 41 years ago. I hold a degree in Media Studies and a master’s in Cinema Studies. Writing has always been my greatest dream and ambition, and last year I completed my first novel. For nearly twenty years, I’ve written for newspapers and blogs, and for the past decade, I’ve also dedicated myself to yoga. Through these experiences, I’ve come to realize that writing is a powerful therapeutic tool. There are insights I’ve only discovered by putting them into words. After studying with the best, came my first workshop: Write to Think and Get to Know Yourself Better. I am a mother of a three year old, a really transformative experience, and I have two cats.
