A farewell!

Glad to be back at home but already missing the people we have left!
A mixture of feelings was strengthened yesterday when we all gathered together at the dinner.  All of you are those who were present and those who unfortunately couldn’t be with us but who had accompanied us during our 4-weeks stay in Lecce.



For us the experience was “unimaginable”,” unforgettable”, “magnificent”,” spectacular”. And without the people we met it would never be the same – our friends from Formicaio, Ciclofficina, the Italian folks who visited Portugal and the rest of the people we met along the way.

And a special word for Sara and Nunzia who got to know us better and “bored” us in the most complicated moments. They have kindly gifted us with a memoir of some phrases, dedicated to each one of us:

Manuel: "La storia insegna, ma non hà scolari" Gramsci

Lurdes: "Prendete in mano la vostra vita e fatene un capolavoro" Wojtyla

António: "Anche il viaggio più lungo inizia con il primo passo" Prov. chinês

Isabel: "Un giorno senza un sorriso è un giorno perso" Chaplin

We appreciate your sympathy, generosity and good nature... these are the things that can never be forgotten!
