What’s around us?

(Portuguese edition)

Thinking about landscape brings to mind a holiday postcard of a tropical beach or a castle. And what about all that’s left off the postcard… is that a landscape too?
What if it’s not considered beautiful?
Can we be inside a landscape?
If we close our eyes, does it disappear?
And if there is no nature, is that still landscape too?

This guide challenges us to read the space around us, to detect details, to feel invisible. It proposes activites to explore what is special about each place, but also to think about what can be improved. Because as important as observing the landscape is, we must know how to treat it well.
It’s our home, after all.

Landscape is an infinite thread that extends throughout nature, one element connecting to the next, one landscape entering another.
We are a part of this thread. Let’s unravel it.
At the end, we will have a better sense of What’s Around Us.
