Hi there,

I am really sorry for all the trouble. What can I say? I am only an English teacher playing the computer expert role ...not doing that good, anh?! :-S


A special "Thank You" to my webhead friend Mike Marzio who showed me how to convert the movie file!

Introduction

First things first. Let's introduce ourselves. Shall I go first?!

Ok. Here I go.

My name is Cristina Costa. I'm 25 years old and I am a Foreign Language teacher and a naval officer. I was born and raised in the Algarve, where I lived till I was 18. At that age I set off to Lisbon to study Modern Languages and Literatures (English and German) and decided to stay in the capital after completing my studies.
I have been serving the Portuguese Navy since 2002 and love what I do.

In my spare time I enjoy reading, practicing sports, going to the movies or to the theater, or just hanging out with friends.

I am a web/internet enthusiast...
