Capela Das Almas PleinAir2024

Capela Das Almas PleinAir2024This iconic chapel is covered in the classic blue Portuguese tiles and is equally stunning inside. I was so fortunate to live around the corner from this church and will remember it fondly as my daily mass chapel. I loved my quiet morning walks, dodging photographers during the day, and sharing pews and spending some quality time in adoration with the locals. This chapel truly was the center of my life in Bolhao. 5. 75x8. 25in, watercolor

My homebrewing self was geeking out during the tour as I learned about what makes port wine so unique and the different varieties that they produce

What better season than Easter to reflect on that

From the soups to bled cakes

Each piece features meaningful icons designed to inspire and protect you on the road

This was a church I walked by a couple times and later had the opportunity to go inside for a special organ/trumpet/vocalist concert in honor of the feast of Our Lady of Lapa

He came to bring peace to my soul

what the virgin Eve bound by her unbelief

It was an idyllic morning

There were so many views to choose from and so much life (from people to peacocks to chickens

I loved my quiet morning walks
