While looking ahead to the magic
of summer, a morning walk in the fields with Rico and my little friend Lily, reminds me of how we all
need to recharge our lives, every so often, and how simple pleasures can turn
an ordinary routine into something extraordinary. For some of you spring does
not arrive as early, but I do hope that so far everyone has enjoyed the days
getting longer. All these vibrant colours certainly make me wish for time to
halt so that all the flowers would remain bloomed all year around… It’s so
pleasant to be able to set up the outdoor table and chairs by the garden and
grill spicy piri-piri chicken served with a salad of local produce, and wine
from Portugal’s best vineyards, while the sun comes down through the
bougainvilleas. It’s amazing how year after year so many people return. Have
you yet? I am where I want to be and hope you’ll find the inspiration for your
next holiday right here in the Algarve!
