Well...I'm quickly running out of money jumping from small town to small town. So I think I'm gonna have to be a little smarter from now on.
Yesterday was a long day. We took a few buses, tried to hitchhike, paid for an expensive taxi, and had to find a farm with basically no directions. It was a nightmare.
We arrived in Coruche after dark, and were wandering around asking for this farm. The Portuguese ppl are actually very nice to strangers. We got some general directions and then started walking uphill for like 3 miles. We finally decided we were lost, so we stopped at a stranger's house to ask if they've heard of the farm we were heading to.
They called all their friends and family, got directions, and even had their brother (who was a local fireman) come pick us up and drive us over here. So helpful. And funny.
We just got done with dinner, some kind of stir fried pork with potatoes and clams. Soooooo good.
