Day 1
20/07/2026
Arrive and exhale in Azores — Pineapple plantation visit

Focus: Arrival & settle Day notes: Aim to reach the stay before dark; pick up essentials nearby (water/snacks). Keep today light: hydrate, a short orientation walk, and an early night. Anchor: Azores. Keep the pace gentle—one good moment beats ten rushed ones. Trip notes: Keeping this plan intentionally unhurried—one meaningful highlight per day and plenty of buffer. If something feels rushed, we’ll skip it. The goal is to come back rested, not exhausted.

Day 2
21/07/2026
Heritage corners of Azores — Furnas hot springs soak

Focus: Culture & history Day notes: Go early for calmer vibes; one big site is enough—leave space for a slow meal after. Read 2–3 minutes of context before entering; it makes the place feel alive. Anchor: Azores. Keep the pace gentle—one good moment beats ten rushed ones.

Markets and slow meals in Azores — Lagoa do Fogo lookout
