>PS. I was looking at your information and thought that something was familiar. Now I remember. The city/town where you live, Coimbra. I recently read the book Pereira Maintains by Antonio Tabucchi where the main character, Pereira, I believe, is from the same city/town. Very good book.

He studied here: Coimbra was, for a long period of the Portuguese history, that is, for more than six centuries until 1910, the sole University in the country (yes, I agree with you, a very good and interesting book).
