´She Changes´ in Porto

After three months and a few weeks on the road I ended my Light World Tour in Porto, so this is actually might last post as a world traveller. What this trip was and involved went beyond my expectations. It was an amazing learning lesson and a privileged experience on lighting and this will definitely remain unforgettable for the rest of my life.
As for the so many interesting cities and sites I visited I can only say what I found more fascinating was the human side of all those places. I always felt very welcomed and people always pushed me to share my story. I think it is a great story, a quite personal one that some of you have followed. Nonetheless, this enlightened journey would have not been possible without all of you: you, the people I met, you, the people that supported me on this journey and you, the people who read. I just want to thank you all for being part of this!
I leave you with the pictures of an installation of a Portuguese artist Pedro Cabrita Reis, part of an intervention to an existing building in Porto, at least a different entrance to a hotel. But mostly important I leave you with something even more special as a personal thank you to all of you. I finish my tour at the Janet Echelman´s third and last installation I encountered on this trip. It´s called ´She Changes´and I don´t think the title could be more appropriate for this time of my life... I changed, indeed!
Thanks for all of your great work Paula, so sad to see that the Light World Tour has finally come to an end.
