AROUND THE AZORES IN 30 DAYS…or LESS

AROUND THE AZORES IN 30 DAYS… or LESS is an invitation from Catherine de Freitas, born in Canada, grew up in Brazil, and studied in Germany, but it was Portugal where she found her home. Most recently in the Azores archipelago on the island of Terceira.

So, join her and experience the 9 islands of the Azores in a unique way with a choice of events that are close to her heart and in a very personal approach.

First and foremost, Catherine’s tour of the Azores takes the time needed to enjoy each island at its own pace, wandering around unique places, and much more than volcanoes and whale and dolphin watching. Each island is a destination of Nature, Culture and Traditions with its own identity, hidden in plain sight… where the stories of its people are shared while savouring the delicious cuisine and living unusual experiences in a sustainable and responsible way.

“Come with me in 2024 and travel around the world of the Azores!” – Catherine de Freitas.
