Família and familiar

Posted on 22 January 202323 January 2023 by Marc

It’s been an indifferent two weeks since my last blog.  The blog where I advised I’d be back to writing weekly.  Well, I failed at the first hurdle. However, the main reason for skipping a week was that I returned to the UK to visit my daughters.  And they took precedence.  While I took my…

Six months ago, I had just sold the remainder of my furniture, made numerous trips to charity shops, and was living with minimal items.  I recall being concerned about whether the items I was taking to Portugal would fit in the car.  Was I bringing too much?  Had I disposed of too much?  At that…

The first hike starts at the end of my…

Portugal. I have arrived!

Posted on 2 August 20222 August 2022 by Marc

I’ve arrived in Oleiros, Portugal!  And, as someone mentioned to me this week, you’ve got the beaming smile after finding paradise. The week before I made the road trip of a lifetime was, in some respects, a game of two halves.  The first half was delivering on all my planning.  I was in control.  Every…
