Very much relate to the builders all building luxury escapes. Half the tradespeople here have been booked for years working on Oprah's latest estate (rumored to partially pressurized to help those traveling from sea level.) We still find our secrets here, too.
We know the supermarket of which you write; we call it Little Harrods (price, range and quality). Yes prices down there are off the charts, never seen anyone famous while having coffee and cake in the local coffee shops (we don't count 😃). We own a plot of land about 30 minutes inland from Comporta we are trying to build on. Love your blog. Look forward to reading your Telegraph article. 👍
Loved this, your blogs always make me smile, they are a ray of sunshine. We have just got back from Greece. I know exactly how you feel about Portugal. As this is how we feel about Greece 😀😀
I am surprised to hear the Clooneys are decamping to Portugal!
It a strange thing to watch a place transform before your eyes. There used to be a popular beach club near Positano that I loved. I would call the morning of and be on an early boat over and get a table for lunch. Now you have to come off a superyacht to get a spot (& I don't go to Positano anymore.)
