Caretakers since 2012

António, from Casa da Seiceira, is the catekaer and Partner Associate of Rota Vicentina since the beginning. He takes care of the Zambujeira do Mar » Odeceixe section of Fishermen’s Trail.


I’m RV Associate since the beginning. Interestingly, the project of Rota Vicentina started to be discussed at Casa da Seiceira in a meeting of Casas Brancas. I accepted the challenge for godparenting the Zambujeira / Odeceixe trail section because I was born and live here a big part of my life and because I think that being a caretaker is being responsible with this great project that have a huge value for the region. First, it seemed too big for us, but with effort and dedication we managed to promote this region beyond borders, at levels that until then we didn’t imagine.
