Artur will make you feel welcomed on Sao Miguel — Artur fará você se sentir bem-vindo em São Miguel - My husband and I had a wonderful time with Artur. He went out of his way to pick us up on the “10th island” (beautiful Pedreira) and was also very understanding regarding some mixups with our plans. We greatly enjoyed learning about Azorean history from him and felt comfortable in his company all night long. He took us to an amazing miradoura, told stories, and we never felt rushed. After the hot springs, both my husband and I enjoyed the cozida for dinner and Artur helped me order a vegetarian version (it is still cooked with the meat so may not work for vegans). Truly delicious. My husband ate his weight in meat and said it was the best he’s ever had. On our way home, we discussed culture and politics, which I greatly appreciated because as an American who doesn’t (yet) speak Portuguese, it was otherwise challenging to learn and discuss topics such as the capote e capelo, the giant hooded cloaks Azorean women wore many moons ago. Artur treated us as friends and made us feel very welcomed on the beautiful island of Sao Miguel.

Meu marido e eu nos divertimos muito com Artur. Ele saiu do seu caminho para nos buscar na "10ª ilha" (a linda Pedreira) e também foi muito compreensivo em relação a algumas confusões com nossos planos. Nós gostamos muito de aprender sobre a história açoriana com ele e nos sentimos confortáveis em sua companhia a noite toda. Ele nos levou a uma miradoura incrível e nunca nos sentimos apressados. Depois dos banhos, meu marido e eu aproveitamos a cozida para o jantar e Artur me ajudou a pedir uma versão vegetariana (ela ainda é cozida com a carne, então pode não funcionar para veganos). verdadeiramente delicioso. Meu marido comeu seu peso em carne e disse que foi a melhor que ele já comeu. No caminho para casa, discutimos cultura e política, o que eu apreciei muito porque, como uma americana que (ainda) não fala português, era desafiador aprender e discutir todos os tópicos de meu interesse, como o capote e capelo, os mantos gigantes com capuz que as mulheres açorianas usavam muitas luas atrás. Artur nos tratou como amigos e nos fez sentir muito bem-vindos na linda ilha de São Miguel.
