Obrigado

That mean’s “Thank You” in Portuguese.
Yes, my friends, I went to Portugal, the city of Fatima to be exact. What was in Fatima? If you’re interested in doing a little bit of reading, you can click here

Outside of Fatima, is a little city called Nazerene. Here are some of the people who live there!
Street PortugalShe sells nuts.
All I wanted was a photo of her, but she started pouring nuts in a bag. As I was giving her a euro, she started pouring more and made me pay 2 Euro. I laugh now, but felt exhausted as I was trying to say, “no, no, just a little bit please.”

Street PortugalNot the lady walking… the dog!
No one ever made a rule that said street photos have to be about people. hehe

Street PortugalI don’t think she has teeth. But I love the wrinkles. You’ll notice that in the above 2 photos, the ladies are both wearing all black. In the Nazarene culture, when someone you love dies and you’re a woman, you wear black… FOR-EVERRRRRR.

Street PortugalOh, man. The first time I saw this guy i KNEW i had to take his photo. He was our bus driver, Roy.
Obrigado, my friend. You took us safely from France to Espana and finally to Portugal.
What facial/body characteristics make him a memorable person? :)

The last 2 shots look down from Nazerene to some city (I can’t remember anymore) in Portugal. I made them kinda/sorta draw-y/postcard-y.
Street PortugalYay for Photoshop!

Street PortugalI called to my friend, Frank, “How’s the view?” as i was walking up to get ready to take a photo. He yelled back, “ITS BEAUTIFUL!”
What do you guys think?

It’s not over yet, friends. There’s still one more major stop along my trip. Any guesses?
Stay tuned!
