Ol\u00e1!<\/h2>\n\n\n

Vi heter Will Traylor (bak till h\u00f6ger) och Joseph Wisniewski, eller Gui respektive Z\u00e9, som vi kallas h\u00e4r i Portugal. Vi har tv\u00e5 andra som bor med oss, v\u00e5ra Sealyham-kompisar, Tucker (fram till h\u00f6ger) \u00e4r 15 \u00e5r och Saga \u00e4r 12 \u00e5r.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I 40 \u00e5r har jag, Gui, arbetat med fastigheter i New York City, fr\u00e4mst inom \ufb01nansomr\u00e5det men \u00e4ven inom kommunal f\u00f6rvaltning och den ideella sektorn. Z\u00e9 var l\u00e4rare i en kommunal skola och \u00e4r nu pensionerad. Vi har varit gifta i 34 \u00e5r och tillsammans har vi skapat v\u00e5rt hem i New York, f\u00f6rst i Brooklyn och sedan p\u00e5 Manhattan. N\u00e4r Z\u00e9 gick i pension tillbringade vi den mesta tiden i v\u00e5rt andra hem p\u00e5 Cape Cod i Massachusetts; vi trodde att detta skulle bli platsen f\u00f6r resten av v\u00e5ra liv.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I juni 2018 bes\u00f6kte jag Portugal f\u00f6r f\u00f6rsta g\u00e5ngen och bara i tre dagar. Jag beh\u00f6vde inte mer tid, jag var helt f\u00f6r\u00e4lskad. Fyra m\u00e5nader senare, i oktober, \u00e5terv\u00e4nde jag med Z\u00e9 och v\u00e5r v\u00e4n Bill Toner f\u00f6r en l\u00e4ngre vistelse. Jag var p\u00e5 jakt efter ett hus och vi tillbringade en stor del av v\u00e5r tid med att titta p\u00e5 potentiella fastighetsk\u00f6p. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vi hade dock gott om tid att njuta av Algarves sk\u00f6nhet, som \u00e4r Portugals sydligaste region. Algarve var v\u00e5r introduktion till det portugisiska folkets \u00f6ppenhet och v\u00e4nlighet. Det var ocks\u00e5 v\u00e5r introduktion till landets mat och vin, dess historia, spr\u00e5k, kultur och sedv\u00e4njor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vi vandrade l\u00e4ngs smala, gamla gator som hade v\u00e4lkomnat tusentals bes\u00f6kare fr\u00e5n feniciska k\u00f6pm\u00e4n till romerska legion\u00e4rer, moriska poeter och medeltida kristna munkar. Vi s\u00e4nkte f\u00f6tterna i den varma sandstranden vid Ilha de Tavira och stirrade med stora \u00f6gon p\u00e5 den brusande Atlantens o\u00e4ndliga vidd. Vi s\u00e5g med f\u00f6rundran p\u00e5 n\u00e4r de enorma \ufb02ockarna fr\u00e5n \ufb02amingos dansade och paraderade p\u00e5 de salt \ufb02ats som utg\u00f6r gr\u00e4nsen mellan land och hav. Vi slappade av f\u00f6r att \u00e4ta middag l\u00e4ngs Rio Gil\u00e3o, som delar Tavira i tv\u00e5 delar, och vi sk\u00e5lade f\u00f6r v\u00e5r lycka med det djupt halmf\u00e4rgade lokala vita vinet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I slutet av v\u00e5rt bes\u00f6k i oktober hade jag best\u00e4mt mig f\u00f6r att k\u00f6pa ett hus. Jag hade valt ett hus i Santa Luzia som d\u00e5 var under uppbyggnad, medan Z\u00e9 hade \u00f6gonen p\u00e5 ett annat, ett i Taviras historiska centrum. Efter v\u00e5r \u00e5terkomst till USA diskuterade vi fram och tillbaka ett tag. Z\u00e9 kommer med r\u00e4tta att s\u00e4ga att det aldrig blev n\u00e5gon st\u00f6rre debatt. I slutet av december undertecknade jag slutligen ett k\u00f6pekontrakt p\u00e5 nybygget i Santa Luzia. Vi flyttade in i v\u00e5rt nya hem den 5 september 2019 efter att ha s\u00e5lt v\u00e5rt Cape Cod-hus bara en vecka tidigare, den 28 augusti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ja, allt var en virvelvind och ett infall. Jag \u00e4r tacksam f\u00f6r att Z\u00e9 var s\u00e5 gener\u00f6s och v\u00e4nlig och l\u00e4t mig f\u00f6lja min dr\u00f6m, som inte var hans dr\u00f6m. Jag tror fortfarande inte att det \u00e4r hans dr\u00f6m att bo p\u00e5 Portugals sydkust i en relativt liten \ufb01skarbyn. Han kommer dock att medge att det finns m\u00e5nga, m\u00e5nga gemensamma n\u00f6jen som vi delar och njuter av tillsammans s\u00e5v\u00e4l som var f\u00f6r sig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under de senaste drygt tv\u00e5 \u00e5ren har vi bott p\u00e5 heltid i Santa Luzia, vilket inte riktigt var v\u00e5r ursprungliga strategi. Nej, v\u00e5r ursprungliga plan var att anv\u00e4nda Portugal som en bas f\u00f6r att resa runt i Europa och vidare, men pandemin f\u00f6r\u00e4ndrade allt detta. V\u00e5r tid h\u00e4r i Santa Luzia har dock varit \u00f6gon\u00f6ppnande och full av sm\u00e5, trevliga \u00f6verraskningar. Denna erfarenhet ger nu br\u00e4nsle \u00e5t v\u00e5r \u00f6nskan att dela v\u00e5r historia med er.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

V\u00e5r \u00f6nskan att dela med oss av Santa Luzia, Tavira, Algarve och Portugal \u00e4r anledningen till att vi best\u00e4mde oss f\u00f6r att skapa den h\u00e4r bloggen, Portugalizar<\/em>. H\u00e4r kommer du att uppt\u00e4cka hur speciella Santa Luzia och Tavira \u00e4r; de \u00e4r hemliga skatter som v\u00e4ntar p\u00e5 att bli uppt\u00e4ckta. Tack f\u00f6r att du f\u00f6ljer med oss p\u00e5 v\u00e5rt fortsatta \u00e4ventyr.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
