Martinhal magic & marathons – Resident Interview with Sara Allen of Martinhal – Ep.15 – 25-03-26

Our guest today is Sara Allen, Real Estate Sales Director at Martinhal Family Hotels and Resorts, who began her Portugal journey in 1999 as a 21-year-old Algarve holiday rep', after mistakenly thinking she was heading to Egypt! She fell in love with Portugal, stayed on, and became her company's Faro airport controller handling dramatic fog-related flight diversions to Seville and Lisbon, and moved into real estate with Winkworth before joining Martinhal. There she managed owner relations in Sagres and later drove sales, especially during the Golden Visa boom, helping bring international investment to Portugal that helped revitalise areas like Chiado and later Oriente and Parque das Nações. Here, Sarah shares her deep affection for Portuguese coastal living, food (especially chocolate salami), the warm people, easy travel and blue skies, advising newcomers to step out of their comfort zone to build local friendships. She also has a great hack for airport users. She is currently training for the London Marathon to raise funds for Pancreatic Cancer UK in memory of her mother, and speaks of her special relationship to running.

Reaching more animals in need – Resident Interview with João Ferreira of ARA – Ep.14 – 18-03-26

Our guest today is João Ferreira of Animal Rescue Algarve, a charitable association which owns and operates an animal shelter dedicated to the betterment of dog and cat welfare in Portugal. João is ARA's Manager and Animal Health & Welfare Coordinator. Hear, here, the inspiring story of how the shelter came into being thanks to the vision of British businessman Sid Richardson who uttered those immortal words: “I have a dream…”. "Born not from a grand gesture, but from the bond with a single rescue dog – a retriever adopted from a shelter in the Algarve," is how it all began. "That dog became a best friend. And that friendship sparked a life-changing decision. “Why wait until I’m gone to build something meaningful? Let’s do it now,” thought Sid, and the rest is history, but with a very particular future in mind, that needs constant and significant help. "From a forested valley in Cabanita, we cleared land, laid foundations, and built one of Europe’s most respected animal shelters – an eco-friendly haven where love and dignity replace fear and abandonment," says ARA's website, which is a joy to visit whilst impressing upon the visitor, the project's ongoing needs. Of particular note is ARA's approach to what happens to the pets of older adopters, who fear what might happen to their 'faithful friend', if and when they pass away, leaving the animal abandoned, once more. "If you register and accept our Legacy Pet Plan, we will welcome your paw-friend into ARA, probably the best animal shelter in Portugal, where we’ve a large live-in ratio of staff & volunteers and a restricted number of animals. The Legacy Pet Plan doesn’t have a standard cost, but we appeal to your charity," they say.
