my husband and I own The Blanco Bungalow Ranch in the World Surfing Reserve of Portugal🌵
We’re both entrepreneurs, and moved from California four years ago, where we both owned our own business.
I had my own jewelry line, repped clothing brands, was a stylist, influencer, blogger, interior designer & renovator, and wore so many hats.
Strader was a restaurateur, owning and creating some of the best restaurants in Los Angeles, like
Hatchet Hall, and Little Coyote.
but when we decided to sell everything and move to Portugal, we thought: let’s build something together this time.
so we bought our dream property by the sea, a two acres Oceanside Quinta. Where I could live out my childhood dream of owning my own horses, while designing our houses. And Strader could surf his brains out everyday and get barreled.
and in the summer of 2024, we officially opened The Blanco Bungalow (number two) and opened our doors for guests.
We’ve absolutely loved curating exclusive experiences for our guests such as natural w**e tastings, horseback riding and surf experiences - all things we both love and care so much about.
But being creative entrepreneurs, our wheels never stop turning… and we have some really exciting things up our sleeves.
So stay tuned… it all begins this December.
