“The Flower Filled Isle of Madeira“by Robert Mead in The Luxuary Cruise Company not only shares that Madeira is a fantastic destination for flower lovers, the romantic version of the the Madeira´s discovery by English shipwrecked lovers Robert Machin and Anne D´Arset, but also the must see spots and great walking along the “Levadas”, a “network of narrow irrigation canals was built across the island with footpaths run beside them, and it’s fun to explore these on a guided walk”.

Larissa, also known as “The Blonde Gypsie”, visited Madeira and joined Nature Meetings on our walk to Caldeirão Verde. We call this walk “Enchanting Santana” and, from what Larissa writes on her blog, it definitely earned its namesake!
Top landscape photographer and a dear friend, Simon Zino had one of his photos included in the “30 Spectacular Examples of Terraced Agriculture”, a selection of the finest photographies on the subject of man made cultivated terraces.
Put together by Matador Network, the selection focuses mainly on Asia (China, Japan, the Philippines…) and Peru. Madeira is the only place in Europe to be featured.
