Eduardo Rui Alves, a citizen of the world and a primary school teacher for 30 years, enjoys reflecting and sharing his reflections.

 

She likes to share her worldview through short chronicles about everything and nothing.

 

I loved feeling the wind on my face on stormy days when I strolled along Avenida Marginal in Ponta Delgada, where I was born.

 

He believes that education is the preparation for learning to "listen to the wind." And he believes that the wind is everything that brings us news and information from the world around us.

 

He was born in the last century, in the Azores, on the island of São Miguel, on a quiet street in Ponta Delgada, but considers himself a citizen of the 21st century.

 

He studied to become a teacher at the University of the Azores and completed internships with two excellent mentors who taught him a great deal about the art of teaching others.

 

Even today he enjoys listening to the wind that blows every day from the Sintra mountains, opposite which he lives with his partner and girlfriend.

 

He also enjoys the warm breezes of the Alentejo region, where he spends many weekends and a good part of each summer.

 

He has been a teacher in Sintra for over 35 years, giving him approximately 30,000 hours of classes to 2,500 students.

 

Wishing everyone a happy life.

And may they know, every day, how to feel the wind in their faces.
