Portugal summer holiday

Since I moved to Amsterdam, 6 years ago, I mostly only go back to Portugal for a few days, for some family affairs. Only occasionally I've been there for longer then 5 days.

This year, when planning vacation with Miss C., going there was one of the suggestions that came up... and what a perfect one!

This vacation was simply unforgettable, and I experienced Portugal in a really relaxing and satisfying way, which never happened so intensively before!

We visited Lisbon, where I grew up, but from a tourist point of view (as I was showing everything to Miss C. who has never been there before). There was no time to visit family or friends, albeit a few exceptions (it was so great to see Diana, David and Lucas!! Also really nice to meet with my cousins in Algarve).

Again, and as always, pictures say a thousand words, and you know I love to take photos, so here are some of the memories I'll always treasure. If you want to check the whole photo set of Portugal Summer 2007 click here.

About me

"I'd seen the light. It was this glaringly obvious blind realization, like pure truth! And it wasn't about anyone in particular, but about people in general. I realized (...) there is no such thing as THE one... It's more about mind-bogling whole hell of a lot of potential ones. Although that should be conforting, it's actually pretty terrifying. We'd all have to kick back and wait for some magical force to show us who we should spend the rest of our lifes with. But the truth is... there isn't a lightning-bolt that slaps you on the ass and tells you to pick this person over all others! If anything... it's like the rain. Rain falls all the time... sometimes you're prepared for it, sometimes you're not. Independent where you are when it hits, you either get caught in it or you don't. (In fact, most of us usually try like hell to avoid it.) You might miss the bus, you might catch the bus. Maybe you remembered your umbrella, maybe you didn't. No big science. Just random torrential bursts of opportunity. And that's the most fate can do. The rest... is up to us!"
