After a 3 days stay in the sparkling Lisbon we drove south to enjoy the countryside of Alentejo. A rural area with cork trees, rolling hills, sleepy villages and deserted beaches. But its biggest asset, tranquillity and hardly any, if any, tourists.
During our drive, it became very clear that not a drop of rain had fallen in the last few weeks. Everything looked dry and barren, no lush green fields as far as the eye can see.
Climate change not real? Think again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tr\u00eas Marias<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Not so far away from Vila Nova de Milfontes lies, somewhat remote, a cosy guesthouse Tr\u00eas Marias<\/a>. Our home for the next 4 nights.
With a bit of imagination, you could picture yourself in Africa. Probably due to the short trees with large crests, sandy soil and steppe grass. It’s a perfect hideaway for reading, relaxing and an occasional glas of great Portuguese wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
