Little paradise

  When it is hot, but not enough to go to the beach, it's good to have another solution. Our alternative was to drive a few miles and explore this natural beauty in the heart of the mountain.

  Here we spent a calm afternoon, swimming and making jumps into the water. It was an amazing afternoon.

  Ending the weekend as it always should be.

Wheat fields

  Agriculture is one of the main activities of my region which means that this is a common Spring landscape in Alentejo. The extensive wheat fields are now growing and glowing in the sunny days of May. 

  I just wish I could spend all day reading in a hammock here.

Weekend scenes

Galicia

  I spend the previous weekend crossing Portugal to get to the North of Spain, to Galicia. After a long bus trip, we arrived in Cambados. After lunch we visited O Grove and La Toja.

  After a short cruise trip we went to a place called A Lanzada. There, near the beach, there was a hill with a beautiful chapel on the top of it, where many people were praying and chanting. The sunset there was breathtaking.

  On the next day we visited Santiago de Compostela. This city is one of the most famous pilgrims destinations.

  I really loved the city old buildings. It reminded me the Italian mediavel villages.
