Review from our Friend Camille



Some weeks ago we had a volunteer helper here in the hostel. Her name is Camille she is french and she left us this wonderful review to show to all our followers (you will find the translation down):

Algumas semanas a trás tivemos uma ajudante voluntária aqui no hostel. O seu nome é Camille, ela é francesa e deixou nós este maravilhoso comentário para mostrar a todos os nossos seguidores (encontrará a tradução em baixo):  


Je suis venue à Alvor un peu par hasard car je voulais être proche de Lagos et j’ai découvert une petite ville avec un charme fou, d’autant plus durant l’hiver où il n’ a y a pas grand monde… Les petites rues pavées, l’église blanche et jaune, le marché tous les matins, la ballade dans la lagune, les bateaux de pêcheurs, les mouettes, la grande plage, l’océan atlantique, et les falaises… J’ai passé 15 jours paisibles et agréables où je me suis sentie en vacances. J’ai rencontré des personnes fabuleuses, comme un peu partout au Portugal mais je partirai de ce pays avec un attachement particulier pour Alvor et pour Ria Hostel, ma « Beach House » comme j’ai aimé l’appeler, avec vue sur la mer... Marco, Rossana, Daniele, Sandra et Anna, merci pour votre accueil et longue vie à Ria Hostel.



EN:
I came to Alvor a bit by chance because I wanted to be close to Lagos and I discovered a small town with a crazy charm, especially during the winter when it was not crowded ... The small cobbled streets , the white and yellow church, the market every morning, the ballad in the lagoon, the fishing boats, the seagulls, the big beach, the Atlantic Ocean, and the cliffs ... I spent 15 peaceful and pleasant days where I felt on vacation. I have met fabulous people, like everywhere in Portugal but I will leave this country with a particular attachment for Alvor and Ria Hostel, my "Beach House" as I liked to call it, with sea view ... Marco, Rossana, Daniele, Sandra and Anna, thank you for your welcome and long life to Ria Hostel.

PT:
Cheguei em Alvor por acaso porque queria estar perto de Lagos e descobri uma pequena cidade com um louco encanto, especialmente durante o inverno, quando não está cheia ... As pequenas ruas com os sanpietrini , a igreja branca e amarela, o mercado todas as manhãs, as baladas na lagoa, os barcos de pesca, as gaivotas, a grande praia, o oceano Atlântico e as rochas ... Passei 15 dias tranquilos e agradáveis onde me senti de férias. Conheci pessoas fabulosas, como em todo o lado em Portugal, mas vou deixar este país com um ligação especial para Alvor e o Ria Hostel, a minha "Casa de Praia" como gostava de chamá-la, com vista para o mar. ... Marco, Rossana, Daniele, Sandra e Anna, obrigado pelo vossa acolhida e longa vida ao Ria Hostel.
