  Description

  I'm Rafaela, crazy about photography, dogs and country life. Currently living in center of Portugal.
  
  In my small village, there are many places in nature to discover. All seasons are beautiful. We can pick fruits, plant vegetables, walk near the river and meditate in nature.
  
  Recently bought a 7000 square meter plot of land, where I would love to plant some trees and rebuild the house.
  
  I have the most amazing boyfriend and 2 border collies living with me.
