São Martinho, Christmas & Indie business | Cátia Lima | The GMP! | #IndiePortugalThursday

#beyondlisbon

'Beyond Lisbon' blogger Cátia Lima is back talking with us about the tradition of São Martinho in Portugal (celebrated Friday 11th November), about Portuguese Christmas basics, and the importance of buying from small businesses.

Join us as we return to our community-contributed roots - revolving around a love of Portugal - with the GuMPer news desk, all-points weather, community input from all angles and throughout our upbeat and cheerful 90 daily minute get-together.

Cátia's mission is to show us that Portugal is more than Lisbon! AND now to help us the explore the trans-corporate, indie scene here.

"Portugal is small in size but big in history!" she says. "We have a rich culture and landscapes way beyond sun, sea and sand – this diversity has amazed me since I was a kid going on vacation with my parents."

"Perhaps Portugal is part of your travel plans or maybe you find yourself daydreaming of making the move to this corner of Europe. Either way there’s a world of information to explore, which includes Portuguese language and all the little big quirks that can be expected when visiting or living in the country. Shall we explore them together?" is her invitation.
