O rapaz do #autotune que vai representar a #Dinamarca 🇩🇰 na #Eurovision será o primeiro artista das ilhas #Faroé 🇫🇴 no concurso.

Um lembrete para #Portugal que nunca enviou ninguém dos #Açores, #Minho ou #TrasOsMontes :blobcateyes:

Domingo, por rios ,montes e vales...📷❄️🌞

The slower days between the winter solstice festivals this year brought the rainiest, gloomiest days I've seen in this part of the country. Time to make some bad weather shots, and get indoors when it gets too wet... #winter #trasosmontes #portugal https://bit.ly/3Q2M2vW

Ontem foi dia de festa em Grijó de Parada, não só por ser dia de Festa dos Rapazes , não só voltarmos a estar juntos depois da pandemia, mas porque este ano se inaugura uma estátua a celebrar os Caretos de Grijó. É muito disso se deve a este senhor, o grande André Seca, não só porque é ele uma das grandes forças que mantém viva a tradição, como também foram as mãos dele que a construiram! #festadosrapazes #trasosmontes #portugal https://bit.ly/3PWNsIg

) Picking up an unlikely photo, of every one returning home (even the sheep) to show full the return to Ousilhão was after the pandemic. The Christmas decorations in the window is a cherry on top. It felt nice to be back!! #wintersolstice #trasosmontes #portugal https://updates.joaoalmeidaphotography.com/post/704743338241343488/picking-up-an-unlikely-photo-of-every-one

A New Year dawn covered with frost, so much that sometimes I had to look away from the celebrations happening on my back, like when this photo was taken.

The main focus of my end of year photo trips to Trás-Os-Montes throughout the years has been the Winter Solstice traditions, but since day one I was never able to ignore these cold winter mornings.

On route to another village, actually already late, but stopped for this nevertheless.

Winter Solstice is upon us, tomorrow days will start to grow longer and we all can celebrate
the triumph of light over shadows.

(Abro um parêntesis para recomendar também este reeditado "Um almoço de negócios em Sintra", que apesar do título é uma coleção de apontamentos autobiográficos sobre o interior do país, o autor viveu em #TrásOsMontes e depois em #VilaPoucadaBeira onde está sepultado.)

Descubro com satisfação que foi reeditado finalmente em Portugal um #livro de #GerritKomrij, que chegou a ser o "poeta nacional" dos #PaísesBaixos ("Dichter des Vaderlands"), viveu em Portugal, estando enterrado no cemitério de #VilaPoucadaBeira

A edição é da Guerra&Paz, a capa é muito menos atraente que a primeira edição da Asa, mas é bom que exista e também em ebook. Um conjunto de notas de um homossexual holandês a adaptar-se à vida de #TrásOsMontes e depois #Beiras dos anos 80/90.

Boa noite🌃🌰🌍

Rise and shine! #trasosmontes #portugal

Pastures surrounded with stone walls, the trees on the edge of the fields, the only thing missing for the quintessential scene in the Mirandese plateau is a donkey grazing.

Spring is the second best time of the year to visit the Mirandese Plateau, right after a cold winter morning with the pastures covered with frost, as the fields are blooming and the skies get filled with pretty clouds.
