    Men's grooming

    There are plenty of barbers on the way and you don’t have to book! Just call in and in most cases you can get a trim or worst case have to wait 5 or 10 mins and it doesn’t cost an arm or leg like at home !

    Brooks Glycerin.

    The Brookes Glycerin is my usual walking shoe at home, the one that I clock up the miles for training out on the road. Have just purchased my 4th pair. Highly recommend them for that purpose. I'm sure they will be fine for the Portuguese way as there is a lot of tarmac and board walking...
