O Niklas começou a aprender português na Alemanha e veio até ao Porto na esperança de poder fazer um estágio. Infelizmente, uma série de problemas burocráticos impediram-no de concretizar esse projeto, mas o Niklas decidiu não desperdiçar a viagem: ia conhecer Lisboa e o Alentejo e só depois regressaria a casa. Conheci-o numa das tardes em que fui fotografar para Biblioteca Municipal Almeida Garrett, no Porto. Lia "A Verdade Desconhecida - Pobreza e Direitos Humanos", um livro sobre um tema que lhe interessa particularmente e que permitia, também, praticar o português.
Niklas started learning Portuguese in Germany and arrived at Porto hoping he could get a traineeship. Unfortunately, all kind of bureaucratic problems stopped him from achieving that goal, but Niklas decided no to throw away the journey: he was going to visit Lisbon and Alentejo and would only go back home after that. I met him in one of the afternoons that I went to take pictures at the Almeida Garrett Municipal Library, in Porto. He was reading "The Unknown Truth - Poverty and Human Rights", a book about a subject that he is very interested in and that also allowed him to practice Portuguese.
