Travel guide of Ria Formosa6 km from Ria Formosa
There was a time when I felt complete. When I had something to believe in, a place to call ‘home’, something to return to. Something to dream of. But time takes its toll and all you’re left with are memories. Good and bad, it’s all that you have. Behind every picture is a story, but some stories have to be abandoned and forgotten. This one is that kind of story…

Not a technically challenging picture but it’s bright, crisp and colourful - so I like it! I’m a sucker for bright colours and contrast. It was taken in Portugal in a little village up in the hills north of Loulé.

Having finished our cocktails we hit the beach in Albufeira, Portugal. We had taken the cocktail umbrellas that were in our drinks and stuck them in the sand. They looked like tiny beach parasols!

Took my new DJI Mavic for a proper "virgin voyage" above the incredible coast line of south Portugal a while ago. Hopefully I will get around the video footage soon.

Während eines langen Strandspazierganges erblickte ich die endlose und doch sichtbare Ferne des atlantischen Ozeans. Die gefühlt ausgewogene Trinität - bestehend aus Himmel, Wasser und Erde - motivierte dazu dies festzuhalten. Entstanden ist ein Bild, welches die Grenzen zwischen Himmel und Erde auf eine klare Art und Weise darstellt.

I was dragged out of bed early to go for a “ride”, unknown destiny. We wound up on the Vicentine Coast in Algarve, Aljezur to be precise. The weather was rough, cold and windy, almost like winter whilst in July. However the fisherman still have families to feed, so they end up sitting on the edge of the cliff waiting for the daily catch.

We spent the summer hiking along the coast and little bays like this one always meant more food, sweets and a cold brew.

Waves of Portugal on a beach. The view from the top is usually less terrifying but in this waters you would be fine and cosy.

Shot of a bird flying over my head at the beach in Costa de Caparica. Caparica - located in the opposite side of Lisbon along the Tago river - is a famous spot for surfers, mainly beginners, in Portugal.

Stumble upon this sunset in the last 5 minutes of exploring Chiado in Lisbon. I was visiting for the first time and my boyfriend was showing me around his city. The soft hues, ambiance, and timing were perfect. I immediately fell in love with this city and understood why my boyfriend loves it so much, too.

The streets in Lisbon have the most wonderful coloured buildings, makes you nearly think of Dutch cities. Walking around the city is like walking through a photo album.
