I'm sorry, but I need a text in English to translate it into Portuguese.

Homespot
Los Narejos, Murcia, Espanha

Data de Nascimento
31 de agosto de 2001

Kitesurfando desde
2011

Local Favorito
Para mim, o melhor local para kitesurf freestyle é a lagoa de Taíba, no Brasil, devido à extensa distância de água plana e ao vento perfeito para aterrissar novas manobras.

Outro local incrível, desta vez na Europa, é Drepano (Grécia). Fui lá pela primeira vez em 2023 e me apaixonei pelos ventos constantes e pelas belas paisagens.

Por último, mas não menos importante, sempre terei um amor especial por meu homespot, o Mar Menor, em Múrcia (Espanha). A melhor estação lá é a Primavera e consigo praticar kitesurf bastante em águas quase planas.

Configuração de Equipamento Favorita
As minhas armas de freestyle são as minhas asas de 10m e 11m Vegas, a minha prancha Team Series de 140cm e a barra Clickbar de 5 linhas. Adoro cada sessão com este equipamento.

Maior Conquista Profissional
Desde que comecei a competir aos 12 anos, fui 4 vezes campeão mundial júnior e terminei em 4º lugar.^{I'm sorry, but I need more context or information to provide a translation. Please provide the text you would like me to translate into Portuguese.} No GKA Kite World Tour freestyle na divisão absoluta feminina. Também ganhei um evento da GKA em 2022 na Arábia Saudita, e isso me fez a garota mais feliz do mundo.

YOUR HOBBIES ASIDE KITEBOARDING?

I really like learning new computer developing skills as well as looking for new trips when I have the time. I also love listening to music every moment I can.

WHAT DO YOU DO ON A DAY WITHOUT WIND?

I usually go to the gym for staying strong and injury prevention. I always find different things to do too!

WHAT STYLE OF MUSIC ARE YOU INTERESTED IN?

My favourite music styles are difficult to determine, because sometimes I like to listen to Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerarld as well as all the soul and jazz legends, but the next day I’m listening to rock or some latin trap radio hits.

HOW AND WHY DID YOU START KITEBOARDING?

I started when I was nearly 10 because my dad told me he was going to do a kiteboarding lesson, and I wanted to try it too. I fell in love with it when I crashed into the water for the first time!

WHY ARE YOU RIDING FOR DUOTONE?

I really like them as a brand because the quality of their products is really good and they have all I need to enjoy my freestyling sessions as well as any other discipline of kiteboarding. Also, they gave me the oportunity to follow my dreams.

WHAT IS YOUR MAIN GOAL FOR THE FUTURE?

I really hope to be freestyle World Champion one day and to travel around the globe discovering new places to ride and meet new people with different cultures.

WHAT TRAINING DO YOU DO TO STAY FIT?

I go to the gym twice a week with my personal trainer, and I try not to eat junk food or sweets.

WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN YOUR JOB IF YOU WOULDN´T BE A PRO KITEBOARDER?

Maybe I’d be a backend developer or an ethical hacker, which is what I’m studying for right now. I also wanted to be a mechanical engineer before deciding to be a pro kiteboarder.

WHAT´S YOUR FAVOURITE FOOD?

I’m in love with pasta (especially the one my father makes) and all types of carbohydrates you can ever imagine, hahaha. I also love veggies and salads. Don’t usually have problems with any type of meal.

WHAT DID YOU ALWAYS WANT TO SAY?

Believe there’s always a way to fulfill your dreams and you’ll be a happy and resilient person.
