Autumn has begun

Nice weather – still like summer even though officially autumn has begun.  It is the best time to go to Tatra Mountains or Bieszczady.

Fado - songs about live, love, hate and passion

During visiting Lisbon I heard many times and in different places fado music - in restaurants, on streets, on squares. Fado is inseparable connected with Portugal, especially with Lisbon. The most famous fado singer was Amalia Rodrigues - I recommend to watch film about her and her music "Amalia - Królowa Fado"


The famous fado singer currently is Mariza. She was born in Mozambique, at 3 her family moved to Portugal and she was brought up in historic district of Lisbon - Mouraria and Alfama. I bought her CD "Fado Tradictional" lately - if someone likes fado music I recommend to buy this CD.

I like hearing fado and drink glass of port wine I brought from Porto.
