Company information

Can a journalist fall in love with the people and places they visit? No doubt! And it was precisely this passion and willingness to make and share my discoveries that led me to create this project. With safe steps but a huge passion. What I hope to share with you!

Property information

It was still early in the last century that my great-grandfather took his wife and five children to erect this house. They lived here, married my grandparents, and my mother grew up. Here I learned to climb trees, to distinguish seeds, to pick fireflies, and to fall asleep to the sound of cuckoos. My children also knew the joy of walking barefoot on the ground, eating on the street while the sun goes down. Groves grew, worked a pottery factory. The house grew. He had a mule, a deposit of charcoal, and later, of woods. The Casa da Avó Rosa is a house of memories but, above all, of stories. And they want to count and add every day. Ours but also the one of those who visit us. Join the village in a single space and share the benefits of tourism to preserve the local identity. After all, for each night's sleep we give part of the revenue to the parish for community development. Happy tourists, they are also happy villages!

Neighbourhood information

It is the birthplace of the poet Ruy Belo, whose house can be visited.
