Welcome to Amarante!
My grandmother Maria will be delighted to welcome you to her home. She owns a house with land in a village near the town of Amarante, just 3 km away. Amarante is in northern Portugal. She keeps chickens and has a garden that she'd like to cultivate more, but finds it hard to manage. That's why I'm asking for your help! I'm her granddaughter, Maria Eduarda, and I'm the person you'll contact before you arrive.
