Meet the writer
Rafa Mendes
City Editor
Rafa trained as an urban planner in Lisbon and has walked the length of more cities than he can count. He writes about the places where public life happens, from bus stops to market squares. At Quillora, Rafa explores streets, public spaces and the details that make a neighbourhood work with curiosity, care and a sharp eye for the details others might miss.
