Volker Poelzl is an Austrian-born freelance writer, photographer and world traveller who lives in the USA. He studied Portuguese in Portugal and Brazil and lived in Brazil for several years. He is the author of CultureShock! Brazil, and his interest in the roots of Brazilian culture awakened his curiosity in Portugal.

Volker lived in Lisbon and extensively explored almost every alley, stairway and hidden corner of Portugal.
