Thanks to Peter for being so responsive and getting us Sandra on short notice for a tour of Tomar. Sandra was awesome. She was easy to find at the cafe, and her knowledge was incredible and interesting.

We would have been totally lost in the convent without her, as we didn’t realize how large and complex it was. Her stories of the Knights Templar and Order of Christ were new to us.

We also enjoyed our visit to the town of Tomar, and were grateful for her relationships in Tomar, taking us to a great place for lunch where she new the owner, the synagogue where she has a close relationship with the volunteer who keeps it open, and the owner of the crazy ratta restaurant.
