About me
| English | I am Jinissa Meggi, I was born and raised in Portugal, and I have Indian and Mozambican heritage, I speak Portuguese, Spanish, Gujarati, and English. I started acting when I was 14 almost by mistake on a challenge, but it turned out to be what I decided to pursue. I studied performing arts in Lisbon, and then moved to Northampton, UK to study Acting and Devising at University. Acting for me is the possibility to journey through different lives and discover a little bit about myself and this world every time. |
| Gujarati | Eu sou a Jinissa Meggi, nasci e cresci em Portugal, tenho descendência Indiana e moçambicana, falo português, espanhol, gujarati e inglês. Comecei a representar quando tinha 14 anos quase por engano num desafio, mas acabou por ser o que decidi perseguir. Estudei artes performativas em Lisboa, e mudei-me para Northampton, Inglaterra para estudar Representação e criação na Universidade. Para mim representação é a possibilidade de viajar por várias vidas e descobrir um pouco mais sobre mim e o mundo todas as vezes. |
