I live near the Lake District, perhaps if you are on facebook, we could become friends and meet up.
If you are interested then I will give you my name so you can contact me.
I am also interested in the North of Portugal, I believe it is greener and not quite so hot with more hills than beaches. My daughter and her boyfriend stay in a fishing village call Sesimbra which is one hour from Lisbon.
She thinks it is a good place to chill out. I like walking, but recently had a knee problem which has slowed me down a little but there is always "walking for softies" I love the country, wine
tasting, mountains etc.
Sorry to hear about your wife Angie. I know Cornwall well and I loved polperro. I stayed in a little cottage there. Would love to see it again.
Love to hear from you.
Kind Regards
