Rita grew up in Braga and has always had a close relation with Peneda-Gerês National Park. She graduated in Cultural Studies and, therefore, has a wide experience in temporary and low paid jobs that have nothing to do with Arts or Culture.

She chose Lisbon to complete her studies as an attempt to run away from Braga, but she was dragged back by Pedro in 2007. She has since made peace with her hometown.

At Keen Tours she works “backstage” handling the logistics and making sure that every tour goes as planned.
