How do you start a blog post about one of your favourite places you’ve travelled to? Many times I started and deleted my first sentence, but I’m just going to start and see where it goes. Because Hopewell is a very special place, perhaps one of a kind. And if not one of a kind, thenContinueContinue reading “Hopewell”

Lac de Maclus
Today is a bit of a chilly and rainy Easter. The perfect opportunity to reminisce beautiful sunny days spent in a beautiful area with great company!

Boca do Inferno
Boca do Inferno is Portugese for Hell Mouth. Sounds like a nice place to visit, eh? 😉 It’s pretty much a deep chasm where the seawater crashes onto the rocky cliffs, creating striking water shows! I really enjoyed this place, even though it was just a short stop on our pretty packed day tour!
On a Sunday afternoon
Here are some photos of a nice Sunday walk on the beach. I just love breathing in the salty air and feeling the wind on my face. The weather was absolutely beautiful! Add to that great company and a nice breeze, and you have a wonderful day!
