Stepping into summer


Summer is the invitation we all need to relax and recharge our senses. At this particular time of the year I like to spread it throughout the house by picking lots of wild flowers that lift the spirits and light it up with scented jasmine candles that create great magic nights! After a long, cold, dark season plan now and take advantage of promotional prices at one of today’s most popular destinations: the Algarve.

Pleasures come in many ways – a dip in the sea, a picnic on the shore, a chilled gazpacho, a fragrant and sparkling wine served in a tall glass, a bowl of strawberries under a shady tree, an open-air music festival, sitting at an esplanade coolly observing the world as it goes by, and much, much more. And all under blue skies or all the colours of the sunsetgold, orange, yellow and copper that bring out the best of nature and the best in you. Algarve is only a short way from everything that has always fascinated you about.
