Descrição
We are Olga and Alvaro. Together with our dalmatian Nina we live in the small, calm island of Santa Maria. We grew up in the Netherlands and Uruguay, respectively, after living in the prairies of South Dakota and Minnesota for 16+ years we have now made our home in the Azores. Currently we both work part time, remotely. Good food, hosting friends and family, and exploring the Azores and its outdoors activities are some of our favorite things.

Diogo de Silves, a Portuguese navigator and explorer in the late 14th century, was instrumental in the early exploration of the Atlantic Ocean during the Age of Discovery. Sponsored by Prince Henry the Navigator, Silves embarked on voyages along the western coast of Africa, culminating in his discovery of Santa Maria island in 1432. This marked a crucial milestone in Portugal's maritime expansion, with Santa Maria becoming a key waypoint between mainland Portugal and the "New World." Christopher Columbus visited the island in 1493, utilizing it to replenish water and food supplies after his historic voyage of discovering America, further solidifying Santa Maria's strategic importance in transatlantic navigation.Mais alguns detalhes
