The standard 'About me' section

I've been living in Porto, Portugal since I was born — October 1986. I spent my childhood playing with Lego, papercrafting and solving puzzles (or at least trying to).

I started using the internet regularly when I was about 15. At 16, I discovered programming, through mIRC Scripting. A few months later, I learned the basics of C++, and I fell in love with it. By the time I had to choose the area in which to graduate, I was sure I wanted to know more about computers and programming, so I decided to take on the Integrated Master in Informatics and Computing Engineering, which I'll finish in 2010.
