We live for ten years now in a small village in Algarve, South Portugal :  Santa Barbara de Nexe. It is very convenient, because close to Faro that has an international airport and various shopping centers. And closer yet to Loulé, a town with all facilities. But Santa Barbara is still quiet, with much wild nature around, and located at more or less 200 meters altitude in the hills with view on the sea that is close by.

Our four closest neighbours here are British, and there are many French, Brits, Germans or Irish around, but the center of the village remained typical. I enjoyed making pictures, my only use of Photoshop treatment being the "removal" of electricity and telephone wires.

Let us start with the village's well, then a typical Algarvian house and an also typical chimney, and finally the local small and charming "hotel"

Sounds idyllic!  Often come through Faro to the golf resorts, so must try and find it sometime.

And give a call (telephone number is 289998183), so that we can arrange for a drink (and talking "Leica" maybe?).

Hello Pierre,

Nice photos. You should be very happy there.

Best Regards,

Michael

We are indeed, Michael, thank you. And I would add that the photos were taken the very day I published them, the blue sky being present here for nearly a month. But it is cold, of course : imagine, only 17º centigrade this afternnon!
