My boyfriend and I each have one LEGO miniature that resembles us, not only in appearance, but also in character, as they possess specific inside-joke accessories.

It started as a birthday gift for him, but now I take the toy whenever I travel and he can't join me. This way, I'll have him in my pocket everywhere I go and make the time we're away from each other easier to pass.

We are both medical students and as I was doing an exchange program in Portugal, I tried to picture the little guy having his own adventures. Here he is exploring the city of Porto.
