65. Ricardo Pereira
Ricardo Pereira is an Environment and Renewable Energy Expert. With a community-based approach and innovative solutions, his work's mission shines a bright light of hope on improving the ecosystems and livelihood of many. Our conversation with Ricardo ranged from how he stumbled into his environmental degree, the wonders of Kenya, being held hostage in Bolivia by a group of kidnappers, and how Africa's solution is in our hands. We had loads of fun with this Mozambican pan-African.
58. Fresh Nunas
Fresh Nunas is a DJ, a jack of all trades and a master of many. His thirst for differentiation and a never-let-go of the African roots attitude distinguished him from the bunch. He started in Maputo, took over New York, touched base in Panama. From washing cars for the Russians, serving tables in SoHo and promoting events in Niger his life has been nothing short of a multicultural rollercoaster.
57. Gabriel Santos
Gabriel is a sales and account manager at Lufthansa Technik Middle East. His stories reminded us that life is full of ups and downs and that no matter how deep the water goes, we have to keep swimming. His tenacity and staying power set him apart, and his mistakes make him human. In his pursuit to accomplish his dream of working in the aviation industry, he shared stories of living in a two-bedroom flat with 11 strangers in Dubai, how a Chinese older man stroked his beard, travelling without money, and the lessons that being broke taught him.
