Business
After a long career in international development cooperation and in building construction, I felt in 2008 that it was time for a change. Being ecology-minded and owning two unique properties in a National Ecological Reserve - formerly sites of a water mill and a windmill, it was just one step to venture into a project of NATURE TOURISM. In the mean-time, SELÃO DA EIRA and SALGADINHO with the adjacent SÍTIO DAS ROLAS are among those "secret places" looked for by people who want to relax and revitalize their energy by getting in touch with nature, but also enjoy the modern comfort of high-standard accommodation, and who appreciate full privacy during their holidays. And I have taken the challenge to make the natural environment of our tourism and some of the accommodations truly accessible and enjoyable also for wheelchair users. Not having lost the spirit of my original profession, I wish to contribute to a local development that preserves nature and benefits the people in this beautiful and still authentic rural area. My guiding principle is ancient (Lao Tse): Whatever you do, do it with all your heart.
