Remember Algarve

Praia da Falésia

The Algarve with its glorious sunshine through the year and fine white sands is a perfect dream place. When my parents-in-law suggested to spend Christmas (2007) in the Algarve, my mom and I were on fire. For my mom and me it would be our first Portugal vacation and the idea to spent Christmas in the sun was just heavenly.  

Sunday's Favourite: Algarve

Falesa - Algarve, Portugal

This dramatic panorama is Algarve's most famous: the buff-coloured cliff, the clear blue Atlantic Ocean, endless beach, pine trees, whitewashed buildings and of course the warm light of the Mediterrenean sun.

It was the first Christmas I spent with my family outside of Germany and not in the Philippines.
