Nelson Carvalheiro Travel&Food; Blog
http://www.nelsoncarvalheiro.com/blog
I dedicate my writing and photography to the soul and sense of place of the locations I visit, the people I meet and the food I taste.
The travels I share through my blog are mostly friend generated, as I feel that the best way to get to know a city is through an insider, who can share feelings and emotions about sites, food and people as passionately as I do.
