Who needs a kitchen when there are natural boilers coming out of the earth?

I took some roots from the tree nearby, prepared the shirt for sinking it into the water and waited 15 minutes.

In the meantime I told some poetry and made 5 euros.

Bubbles!

I was chatting with many people who walked by. One man gave me a self rolled cigarette with tobacco from his garden. That was a good smoke! The tourists were coming from Norway, France, Austria, and Macao. I loved the people from Macao, they were so friendly and interesting. When they left they gave me the wave with the hand which is so typical for some Asian folks.

The eggs taste like eggs, nothing special. The water is yellow because of the corn which is in the big plastic bags.

That there is hot water coming out of the hole is amazing. The village uses it for everything. Energy, cooking, bathing and next time I will tell you some more facts. First I have to discover them though!

I hope you like this little trip into the Furnasian cooking culture and see you next time

I had some Bacalhau cooked in the Furnas last time I went to São Miguel Island :) It's really good!
Great Post! Thank you so much for sharing!

Hi, I just want to say that I am not so good in replying to compliments. That's why I fear these happy birthday congrats and everything similar but of course I am flattered and wish you all the best!

You are very intelligent. I am voting you.

That is such a nice compliment. I wish you all the best. You are very kind!

Hey, it's pretty smart to boil eggs there. But aren't they tastier when they are hot? They will cool down after a while. Now you have to eat them all, wahahaha.

My alien friend with the connect-to-the-flying-horse-tail, I already had 10 fart. I kne that you must have been running away from a St. Petersburg mental hospital and a bit loony. I like that harharhar

Mein Freund, this world is a fucked up mental hospital so why not be a little bit loony. Otherwise, it's boaring.

Let's take the whole gram!!
