Make it Matter

Dan and his partner chose to move to Tasmania for the lifestyle and they have not been disappointed since arriving in Hobart three and a half years ago. They are avid enthusiasts of the great outdoors, relishing camping adventures and exploring nature through bushwalking.

Emigrating 12,500 km from their family and friends in São Paulo requires sacrifices, not least the weather, but Dan enjoys being part of The Project Lab family and flexible working means he can keep up with loved ones even with a 14-hour time difference. Like any true Brazilian, Dan is unashamedly passionate about football (soccer) and is a faithful supporter of his hometown team – football is life!
