Hiker's Journey to Portugal

What a wonderful experience to meet and interact with Alexandra. Being from a small village in the area we were exploring, she added a wealth of knowledge about the history, food, wildlife, and flora during our trip days. Her love of Portugal and sense of adventure are so infectious. She is a great addition to any Wilderness team.
