Chegar à mítica aldeia da Pena é só para destemidos. É que a estrada que encaminha para este local é íngreme e nela só passa um carro de cada vez, apesar de ter dois sentidos. Não se assuste com a primeira aventura porque depois de descer às profundezas, é garantido: a visita vale bem a pena!
Considerada uma das mais belas aldeias de xisto portuguesas, com 6 habitantes e 10 casas de habitação, é um lugar de visita obrigatória na região.

Getting to the mythical village of Pena is only for the fearless. The road leading to this place is steep and only one car can pass at a time, despite being a two-way road. Don't be scared by the first adventure because once you've descended into the depths, you're guaranteed to find out: the visit is well worth it!
Considered one of the most beautiful schist villages in Portugal, with 6 inhabitants and 10 houses, it is a must-see place in the region.

🌍 Reflections in Berlin: Where Past Meets Present and Future

Standing here in the Alexanderplatz area, beneath the gaze of the iconic Fernsehturm and the soft glow of a streetlamp, it’s hard not to feel the pulse of history woven into the city’s streets. This is Berlin—a place where every corner whispers stories of resilience, division, and unity.

Not so long ago, a wall divided this city, splitting not just streets but lives, dreams, and possibilities. Today, that wall is gone, yet the lessons remain—a powerful reminder of the strength of humanity to tear down barriers, both physical and invisible.

This view invites reflection: how far have we come in breaking walls within ourselves and society? What walls do we still build—around nations, beliefs, and hearts?

Berlin doesn’t just ask these questions; it lives them. Here, the weight of history and the energy of progress coexist, reminding us that humanity’s greatest achievement is its capacity to heal and rebuild.

Take a moment. Look up. Think big. Let Berlin inspire you to build bridges where walls once stood.
