Sharing the dream

Today, after a great morning of surfing at Carcavelos beach, i met a nice girl from New Zeland and her brother. They are traveling around Europe in a customized van (old but still great!) with 3 other friends. England was their starting point but they have been in the road since July... crossing France, Spain and Portugal! The final destiny will be Morocco, a country i'm eager to visit as soon as possible.

While i was talking to her, i realized that "the dream" is pretty much alive inside me... So, Angela, it's almost time to pursue our own dreams! Let's go :)

The beginning

It wasn't love at first sight, no. The first time I saw her was in my early surfing lessons at Carcavelos beach.
A friend of mine introduced us, I tought she looked goofy with her glasses. Hell, how can I remember that? It was on December 2011, two years ago. Since then, we've been together from time to time, mostly on surfing lessons or with surfer buddies. How did it happen then? Well... it just did. When it was not supposed to. Only a few months before her departure to another country... we both thought: shit, now what? Simple, let's enjoy the little time we still have...
And so that's how it has been since then. We wanted to go on an adventure that we could remember forever... sorry, the first of many adventures, after all she's worth of it! So... we talked about renting a van and explore our beautiful sea coast on the south of Portugal, "Costa Vicentina". So many great surf spots, good weather, nice villages and food... oh, and the best person to go with I could ask for! We rented the Kombi and started dreaming for the trip to begin!
