Portugal is both a celebrated and an unknown land. Millions come to
enjoy its beaches and the fashionable coastal cities of Lisbon and
Porto. In this sense it looms large in the minds of many. But its
out-of-the-way places, its turbulent history and contemporary
challenges are little-known outside of the country's boundaries.
From autumn 2018 to spring 2019, British journalist Stephen Powell
travelled the length of Portugal, following a zigzag path of nearly
1,500 kilometres on foot. Away from the mass tourism, he wanted to
form his own unhurried impressions of this very distinctive
country. He discovered a very mixed reality. The dark side was the
blight of rural exodus that is emptying so many villages. But he
also found a profoundly generous, warm-hearted people with time to
converse - a gift that is not found everywhere.
