feisty mind

Between real and magic, I am oh-so many things: aspiring author, witch, mother, sportswoman, ambitious corporate professional, feminine bitch, slightly crazy.

So this is not a perfectly curated life here, it’s messy. Some of us were not, indeed, built for still waters.

Here I lay it all down (or almost all): the questions that haunt me, the quiet truths that won’t let go, the books that change me, the words that keep me awake at night, and the worlds I long to live in.

Feisty mind. Restless soul. Always moving toward the next chapter.

However, 10 years ago, I left sunny Lisbon and filled my days with Amsterdam clouds. Not daring to learn proper Dutch, my days are filled with English. I breathe and live in this language that,…

  • I’m Pipa Seabra — an aspiring author in the magical process of writing my debut book. By day, I navigate the fast-paced world of corporate banking while raising two young children.
