Hi Manji! I'm sure you're right, that all you say is happening, but the actual question is: how truly Portuguese is Portugals official image? or: how different is the real Portugal of Portuguese nationalists from the collective self-perception of Portugal imposed by its governments? Is the real Portugal just salted cod,
fados,
saudade (nostalgia) and whatever else that conforms the stereotype of present-day Portugal? and how true or false is all that?
(I'm just pointing out because I'm very interested in your opinion -especially being a Gallaecian

)
