Hi! I’m Michelle and this is my story! I fell in love with traveling and travel photography when I was a kid. In my 20's I started solo backpacking. Later, I was trapped by corporate America and lost track of my passions. Now, in my 40's I've left the corporate life and have rekindled my adventurous spirit. I love backpacking, sound healing, yoga, fitness, and the amazing people I meet around the world! Please follow me for love and inspiration!
After a nice visit to the Azores, I parted ways with Diane and headed back to the mainland to visit my Portugal family, Luci, Charles, Theo, Florence, Luna (woof) and Monti (purrr). If you have been following me, you may remember, this is the family with a beautiful AirBnB who I spent a month with this past spring. When I decided to make my way back to Portugal, I couldn't leave without a visit!
Come wander the streets of a mediaeval town, hike a beautiful coastline, explore some cute little villages, and meet my Portugal family in this last installment from Almoçageme. Cheers!
I'm back, continuing the fairytale in Sintra. This time we will visit Monserrate, the Moorish Castle, and the famous Pena Palace and Park. Please come on for lots of pictures in this magical land!
Finally I found a place to settle for a month and I'm loving it! Welcome to Almoçageme, Portugal, where you will see beautiful coastlines, go on amazing hikes, and visit some truly magical sites...this is only the beginning! C'mon in and see what's happening!
