Abrantes. Miguel Real, writer

[Javier de Blas in Abrantes, Portugal] Eduardo Salavisa is organizing for the first year Cadernos de Viagem de Abrantes (Abrantes Travel Sketchbooks ). I have been invited, in this edition, to draw the city for a week.

I meet Miguel Real, a famous Portuguese writer who is here with the same job as me.

He writes on Abrantes and I draw. Although each one of us works independently, we consider the possibility of joining our results in a common project.

He is with me at the local library today. When I finish the presentation of my book, Traveler in Tindouf, he talks about the history of narrated travels.

I find it difficult to understand Portuguese, so I copy everything he is writing on the board, to review it later.

It looks funny to me to see the literal copy of his notes in my notebook.
