Originally working as a journalist in Berlin from 1989 to 2004,  Lina started renovating historic houses in 2000 when she bought Serro da Volta, a traditonal country house near Tavira in the southeast of Portugal. Since then Lina has gained experience restoring several houses in the village of Daroeira, near Tavira, in the hillside of the Eastern Algarve, an apartment in an old residential building in Berlin Schöneberg and another apartment in a Pombaline building in the historic center of Lisbon. National and international guests can book the four houses in the village of Daroeira as part of the Casas da Serra Tavira project. In summer 2022 a new chapter began with the acquisition of two houses in the historic centre of Estremoz in the Alentejo which will explore a new concept of Pop-Up Holiday Homes.
