John West
John has been coming to the Algarve twice and sometimes three times a year since 2000. In 2006 he decided that the Algarve was where he wanted to retire to and duly arrived in September 2012, lock, stock, barrel (+ dog!) He joined the Central congregation around 2010, enjoyed the friendliness he found and soon became Congregational Warden. John and Judi love the food in the restaurants up in the hills when they can escape. Contact John by email here |
