This past summer, during my brief journey to Portugal, I visited one of my dearest friends, Joana. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to hang out with her as much as I want but life sometimes just makes it impossible to do plan an event without somehow having to postpone it indefinitely…  I spent some time with her reminiscing about the past and getting our chitchat up to date! Meeting Joana at her house is always an opportunity to visit her garden and animals also. Joana and her family own a little piece of land from which they gather food in a sustainable and ecologic way. Amongst others they have a wide variety of vegetables, plants herbs and fruits as well as some animals.

Because there is something special about capturing moments of routines and workaday in people spaces, I took the opportunity to capture a few photographs and portraits on that day. Seeing someone so connected to Nature so at ease between the greenery and the animals makes myself a little more confident about the future.

 I hope you enjoy it.
