Hello, my name is Jorge. In Portugal, I was conceived, and in Helsinki, I was made amd still its innumerable wonders continue to astound me, and I'd want to share them with you. I am a specialist in Photography and Video, and I have a passion for history. This love led to Travel Photography. The more I learned about this city, the more I wanted to share its hidden gems and undiscovered stories with others. "When you truly desire something, the entire universe conspires to assist you in achieving it," a wise man once said, and that is precisely what occurred to me.
