Saudade - the love that remains
My Story
Born to Portuguese immigrant parents, I grew up in Toronto's Little Portugal neighbourhood, celebrating the language,
customs and traditions of my ancestors and now passing them on to my own children.
I have spent the last 50 years travelling to Portugal frequently, creating roots and deepening relationships over the years.
Today I feel very deeply the longing of "saudade" when I'm not there.
Saudades is a passion project born from a love of everything Portuguese.
I have a strong desire to share the beauty of this culture and its' people through travel, photography, stories, recipes and more!

Saudade Chronicles
The greatest gift we can impart on our children and grandchildren is their history, the story of where they came from, and the feeling of belonging. Storytelling is the root of communication and a great way to connect with others. In these chronicles I hope to share stories, traditions recipes and more to celebrate our culture, teach and learn form others.
