The voluptuous curves of my street!

My name is Hope (Esperança), I live on Faith Street (Rua da Fé) and Charity (the Church) stands above us.
I moved to this village 9 years ago due to an imminent divorce. My finances were down to almost nothing, but I wanted to buy my own little corner of the world, where I could find peace and sanity.
Every time that I visited the Real Estate agency I always asked if they had any tiny property to sale for the measly amount of cash that I possessed, from my savings during the last few years of my pathetic marriage…
One day the Real estate agent remembered this tiny property on Faith Street, and I knew it was my little corner of the world!
After many issues and complications due to some spiteful neighbours, I’m still here and loving it…
It’s not always easy to restart at 40, but it’s worth it!

hi, great shot! Nice colors! Well done

Hi Esperança,
Your whole life in one shot!
A very lovely street you have. I know 'cause I've been there! You got it from the best angle!!
Nice colors and very good detail and sharpness.

Hi Esperanca
On the street where you live it appears to have some considerable history. A narrow lane, old wall and a church at the top of the hill. I might have removed the dark bit in the top left. Good clear photo that tells a story. I trust you will get on better with your neighbours in the future. Well done and best wishes.
Mike

Photo bien faite, belle petit rue avec des pierres, claire, nette, peut être, elle serait mieux encadrée sans les fils électriques. Salutations.
