Bio
Seb was born in fancy Alvalade and grew up in blue collar Margem Sul. Two realities that contributed to making him street-posh. That means Seb listens to Snoop Dogg while wearing a threatening pullover sweater around his neck. He says he likes cinema, literature, conferences (pause for yawning) and having a grandmother who taught the Portuguese President. And she never gave him an A. He’s 1.90m tall, and for that reason, one day a stork decided to build a nest on his head. Which he decided to keep. Termination clause: More than 50 Cent.
