Let's meet in Louçainha for a cold swim and a snack afterward.

What is this place, though?

Well, there is a beautiful 40-meter-long pool filled with water flowing from nearby mountains. It's a classic place for local winter swimmers.

I've been swimming there pretty much every week since November. The water temperature went as low as 8 degrees. That, without training, feels brutal. With training, spiritual :o

Now is spring, though the water is still cold (around 15 degrees).

Join me this Saturday for the swim.
