Portuguese Lifestyle
Ahoy Partisans & Friends & Guests,
The last days in Porto… I have been working on my homepage and tinkering with my new Expedition Machine. I am looking forward to the first test ride in January 2010. It will be a challenge. I still have troubles to cycle on my new Two-Wheels’ Lowrider Machine 
Imagine you have to learn once again cycling. You cannot compare it with an usual (non-recumbent) bike. Let’s take it easy especially with these Portuguese traffic & roads marked by horrible surfaces (flagging), narrow streets, extremely uphill / downhill, careless & aggressive car drivers, better said “warriors” (I am sorry Portuguese drivers. But that’s what you are
Anyway, I see it as perfect training for Asian traffic & roads. I have been told to expect similar or even worse traffic conditions in Eastern Europe, and later in Asia.
What I am doing rest of the time? Working on my Yoga & Freestyle Performance, hiking, camping, learning Portuguese and for sure, enjoying Portuguese culture with Portuguese Music, Traditional Dances, very delicious food (esp. Seafood, Fish, Vegetable Soups … Yamm Yamm), ah… no worries, more insights will be blogged soon!
For the next weeks (over Christmas & New Years Eve) I am going to visit my parents & family in Germany. I have not seen them for the last 2years. I’ll come back begin January 11.
Last but not least, a Big Thank You to the photographer Christina Baek, who provided me some of the pictures above.
And for all partners, friends and guests who understand Portuguese, that’s the first blog in Portuguese. You can change the language by clicking on the Portuguese flag above. It shall help me learning the language. But no concerns, my Portuguese level is still very bad. Laughing & smiling accepted, but no judgement.

Love that last yoga one!
Maybe taken by Ana? So… I realized that Martin Maynard is also one of the photographers since I had to buy my camera in Porto with you guys
