The long awaited trip back home (to Portugal), after 7 years almost 8 years (actually) in Stockholm, Sweden,... is getting near!!
Both to enjoy some vacation and maybe even have some inspirational / reflective time before we arrive home, Cláudia and me decided to do a 2 weeks (more or less!) road-trip all the way from Sweden (Stockholm) to Portugal (Guarda, Coimbra; these will be the cities which will "harbor" us initially in Portugal).

These years (around 6 years for Cláudia and 8 years for me), as expected, were filled with new experiences and both happy and less happy events. The highlights of all this time has, however, definitely been our marriage (in 2010) and the conclusion of our Ph.D's (in 2011).

Anyway... we will have time to ramble about our reflections regarding the time in sweden later on. For now, this blog will be the journal of our "way back" (which will be starting, if everything goes as planned, this coming sunday morning - 24/09/2011 - ).
We are both eager for this trip (finally some vacation / relaxation time which we are both in great need after a tough year!!) and starting to feel, I must admit, a bit of the nostalgia coming our way.

Below is our preliminary route... according to google maps it is going to be 4285Km. Quite a ride :)
We will post the detailed routes once we have them done and confirmed :P

See you soon...
We will also try to link to a music video depending on the mood or the moment of the trip... for now I leave you with this one...
