Wine in the Gloomy Room

Marta in Faro, Portugal

The Faro wind was too cold to eat outdoors, so I sat with a glass of amber wine and watched the riders complain about their stiff backs. My watch buzzed with a weather alert while I forced them to down their cold pasta. It was a grey day, but we rode anyway.

Write to Marta in Spanish and she answers — about her day, with photographs. What you got wrong comes back struck through with the right version beside it. Every word is tappable.
