One long, continuous undulating pattern stretching the entire length of Nazaré’s promenade. Created using the traditional Portuguese paving technique known as calçada portuguesa. For the locals, it’s the most ordinary thing in the world. For me, as a newcomer, it’s a dragon-like mosaic, a winding pattern of cube-shaped pieces of white limestone and black basalt. It reminds me every time of the truth of ceaseless change in our life.

Since when did we actually start talking about the Far North and the Deep South? And what’s the connection with the Far East and the Wild West? Without doubt, somewhere in their midst you will find the navel of the world.

And tomorrow morning, of course: the week begins with music. Have a lovely Sunday!
