Watching the Sunset at Relógio Beach | Figueira da Foz, Portugal

After walking a long distance, we finally reached our destination - the beach. One of our friends had just arrived from Switzerland and she was sick of mountains and snow, so she begged us to go to the beach and just look at the see for a while... we ended up running after seaguls and then spread a scarf on the sand and sat down to watch the sunset. It was really a magical moment.

Even though it's December and rain/snow was expected, it's still sunny in Portugal (thank God!!). Don't be foolled by this bright sun though. it has been freezing cold!

Relógio Beach | Figueira da Foz, Portugal

Last Summer I attended Somnii Festival, which is the biggest electronic music festival in Portugal, and haven't been to this beach ever since. It's incredible to look at this deserted beach (now that it's Winter time) when the only memory I have of it is a gigantic stage and fifty thousand people jumping and screaming as one.

Streetart | Figueira da Foz, Portugal

Hello there! So after passing the marina, we approched the dockyard. This place is enourmous! And to be honest I have no idea what it is for, especially that round wall, with all those paintings. But I found them very beautiful and interesting.

Two of my friends taking a selfie...

As the sun was setting by the time I took these pictures, the shadows were making amazing shapes and we decided to take some pics.

Pretty Things Pt.2 | Figueira da Foz, Portugal

Click to read Part 1.

As we carried on walking we passed the marina, which I found beautiful! It's an amazing place to go for a walk or to jog, to have a cup of coffee or simply to hang out.

Anyone who knows me or has read some of my post knows that I'm crazy about mosaics, "azulejos" and "calçada portuguesa" which is this kind of floor composed by small cubes of stone, usually granite or limestone.

You can see my outfit, very warm and comfy.

And some streetart close to the beach.

Expofacic 2014: Kaiser Chiefs | Cantanhede, Coimbra, Portugal

Hello again! This is the last post of the "Expofacic" series (this expression sounded kinda odd to me, anyone else?) and is about Kaiser Chiefs concert, which I didn't expect, but was simply mind blowing! One of my favorite concerts of all time and I don't even like their songs much (I went to see Borgeous and Moullinex, but it started raining so much we had to leave :'( ). If you watch the video you'll for sure find their energy contagious like I did... to the point that without knowing the songs nor the lyrics I found myself singing along "THIS IS MY LIFE! I CAN WORK IT OUT I LIVE WITHOUT NAHAHANAHAHNHABLABLABLA... THIS IS MY LIFE!!"
I'll see you guys soon!

Expofacic 2014: Buraka Som Sistema | Cantanhede, Coimbra, Portugal

Hey! So today I'm showing you some pictures and a small video I recorded during Buraka Som Sistema concert in Expofacic this Summer. It was the third time I went a BSS concert and it was a great show, as always, I had a great time with my friends and am sure I burnt all my dinner's calories! The only criticizm I can possibly make is that every concert is the same, exactly the same! And the three times I went to their concert were in 2012, 2013 and 2014, it's not like I've seen them three times in the same month... But, oh well, I still had a good time, so it was worth it. That's all for now... k bye!
