About me
My name is Ricardo Horta and I'm a Portuguese (European) native speaker.

As I was growing up, I thought about becoming a scientist. So, I studied Science during my last years of High-School. In 1996, I started studying Mechanical Engineering at the Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia / Universidade Nova de Lisboa (Lisbon).

That lasted for three years. I wasn't completely satisfied with it, so I decided I needed a new challenge. I didn't graduate from Mech. Engineering and in 1999 I started studying Translation (Portuguese - English - German) at the Universidade Autónoma de Lisboa (Lisbon) and I graduated in 2003. Translation presented the challenges I wanted. I guess you have to be a Translator to understand that. This is not just my job, this is what I like to do!
