Hey!👋
I'm Felipe Rabaça, a brazilian currently pursuing my master's in Lisbon, Portugal. I enjoy everything related to technology, such as games, web design and photography. I'm also passionate about interactive media, mainly how people use those technologies and how they are changing and molding our cities.
