Andrea, Andre and I Portugal is special for me, sentimental value. There are places that I call mine, because I have witnessed important moments, or simply caught my attention. Always when I was in the city I visited these places.
But every place is about people, because without them, even the best planned trip does not make sense. There are people here who know and those who saw only a few moments, but for various reasons I decided to immortalize. They also, and perhaps particular, they create an atmosphere of places, including my seats.
At the top is a picture with my housemates (only 2 / 6 of them) - Andrea and Andre.
Andrea, who then celebrated a birthday, is a Brazilian living in Portugal as early as 3 years. It is lovely and very helpful. Andrea speaks very little English, so we had to communicate with her in Portuguese ... which was a great training our skills. As a beginner, I was not able to express everything I wanted, but Andrea is so wonderfully patient person that after a while, with the assistance I could make a whole sentence at a time which has not yet met! Of course, me and Arne constituted a big challenge for her, because even the words we were mistaken and sometimes they do not know if that is what we wanted to say, leading often to amusing situations (such as my statement that I went to the beach naked ...;) .) At the end of my stay Andrea said that I made good progress, I speak more fluently, and she gave me her email address, stating that he counted on my emails in Portuguese. He is probably the coolest person in the house.

Andre, Italy doctoral studies in Aveiro for over 2 years, as for me, a total denial of my ideas about Italians. Silent (apparently it is dramatically changed when he crosses the threshold where a party), says it does not gesture, does not need to eat every day toothpaste. Very nice man, which had a long conversation about the institution of marriage and its value and total impracticality, the family, having children and whether nieodzywanie up by a guy for a few days means more than just the fact that they just have (the proposal : They are just like that.) I always open the wine, because the house was just the opener for Mc Gyverów, and I'm using this for blondes;)
My students: José, Daniel, I, Sabrina and João One of the nicest days in Aveiro was the one where I met with my students. It's the same ones who cooked for me dinner before you leave the Portuguese with Polish. The guys met up with me after my course and went to lunch at one of the pubs in Aveiro, on the newcomers, do not have a clue, in which he is one of the best cuisine (the pet), a solid portion and the lowest prices. There is of course noisy, crowded and very stuffy lunch. There is also a service that will tell you that Monday is not a good day for ordering porco á Alentejana . In any event, once again I spent with my students a very nice afternoon. You guys never cease to amaze me with their ideas on life and how to avoid excessive strain your in college. ;) A truly Portuguese approach. A few days later, when I was with Arne in the same tavern, There again I met with them. They were pleased that so I liked that place.
These young, intelligent people in the photo above is a fellow with é, whose names, unfortunately, I do not remember . They were with us at lunch, and then to the common coffee in Autocarro, and at the end took my camera to do just that picture. A typical example of grooms and jokers (that is 95% male Portugal population, P). 
Filomena and I
Filomena is my teacher of Portuguese. Induce extreme emotions in students - some of them liked it, others do not. The former are those who learn the language through on-line course it prepared and worked in the classroom. The latter thought that the entire on-line course is a sham and you should have seen their faces, as in the first class Filomena began to speak to us Portuguese. Some took the job, others continue to follow in zaparte that they are not needed. You most not like Philomena, who did not hide his opinion about them. Filomena
a lovely person, maybe with a fairly specific sense of humor (I just grabbed her when the waves and I knew her answer is pure sarcasm, and when the usual joke). Little, drobniutka, but was able to get along. I had a chance to talk with her on various topics, not just those related to the course and realized that it is a cool chick. It is unfortunate that we did not have time for common output for lunch or coffee.

salva-VIDAS My trip to Aveiro is not only a Portuguese course, but also a half-holiday, which often spent on the beach in Barra. Almost every day after class I ran home for a quick lunch, and then quickly to the beach. I took with each book and repeating what we did in class. Sometimes. P
I kept succeeding 3h cheat on nice, warm sun, then it was getting colder (wind), and remained in a dress shirt, wrap towel, sit and stare at the sun no longer occurring.
Around this time, before 19.00, or rescuers gathered. He who is always pictured playing in tossing the board when he went to the "base." Picture taken from far away, so unclear.
In the place where he usually was decomposed into the other rescuer. As I first saw him, I began to seriously think about breaking the fear of large waves to enter far into the water and, quite by chance, not being able to go back and start to have problems ... :) I was afraid only that, before I get to the point that a rescuer would be the point where it must arrive to help me, the waves really swept me out of the area, and to make matters worse I wash the pants or the top of the costume and I had to sit in until all the water go ... Gave peace. ;)

This girl noticed when visiting a traditional canal barge Moliceiro in Averio. Complained that the rod like a pro talking at the same time everyday, and truly "street" Portuguese. Until Filomena herself was surprised that the children so they say.
For me, the sight of this girl was quite extraordinary - a girl dressed in pink did not look at this, which alleges that a fishing rod free time. Maybe I'm wrong idea about girls, especially the Portuguese, and especially those dressed in pink. ;)

That you photographed in Porto going through probably the most famous bridge - the Ponte Luis (http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponte_Dom_Lu% C3% ADs_I) . I did pictures of coastline when I heard someone calling something. I looked up and there by the window in one of the houses looked exactly this subject and requested that his or capture the image. I changed the setting on the camera, pointed it at him, drawing near as far as I could, I took pictures and picked a thumbs up sign that he fulfilled his wish. The guy smiled, waved and returned to their jobs. Oh, so small and nice episode. :)
This older Mrs. (Portuguese senhorita), photographed on the way from the cathedral to the coast.
whole district between the cathedral and the promenade is a tangle of Douro narrow streets with old colorful houses, money rozwieszonym overhead passersby and residents sitting outside the house seeking refreshment and companionship. Some of these streets is a well-worn paths of tourists, because the whole district is a monument placed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. But it is enough to turn into another street to the tourist looking to become an attraction for locals. And the locals, although visually the district is no indication, they are nice and warm. Some people look suspiciously at just enough of them pointed at the camera lens, but it never once occurred to me to be przegonioną, or hear an unpleasant word. They just us, the visitors, accept it.

When I walked down to the coast and walking through the Ribeira , I noticed something that I've heard many times, but so far has never failed me this watch. Mali and young boys and girls from the Ponte Luis jumping into a river. The thing is absolutely prohibited. And quite frankly disgusting - Douro in this place is dirty - there plenty of pleasure craft exhaust, branches, leaves and garbage. Not to mention that this river is the movement of ships, boats and motor boats (sometimes run by lunatics.) Kids, as you can see, it did not stop completely. Climbed up the bridge and play the best brand in the firm that others do their pictures.
overlaps here I thought - since we all know that the jumps are allowed and should not take place, especially by children - this is why nobody does not respond and does not call the local municipal police or police? Sam felt bad making them the pictures. What Should either something happened? Is this nation is so laid back?

nice contrast to the insubordinate teenagers were a group of old men playing cards in the park across the Douro, Gaia. Just look: neatly dressed elderly gentlemen, have nothing to do on Saturday afternoon and it is not drinking. I imagined that they know each other for many years, maybe even some grew up together, and this card game is one of the little tradition. Maybe then went on a glass of port wine or a cup of coffee. It is nice to see that people can still racing along time.
At the very end ... me:) For a short time it was part of Portugal. And as you see in the picture, taken on a beach in Costa Nova, I was very pleased part of Portugal.
all the time since returning am confirmed in the belief that the approach to life and the world shapes the climate in which we find ourselves. Even the highest layers of the innate optimism will not give advice, and the cold gray day. As it so it can build in a few million osób, dziwnego to nic, że Polska to kraj smętny. Caly czas jestem
in tropie swojej drug, ktoré ma mnie lub innego Portugalio zawieźć of the klimacie zgodnym kraju z moim Klimat wewnętrznym.
