About the host
Hosted by Brendan McDonnell
I recently retired after spending 27 years as a Documentary Maker and working on International News stories around the world. I was in search of a slice of Paradise and found it here at Quinta da Granja. Most of my days are spent looking after the Mediterranean Gardens surrounded by Woodlands. The peace and tranquility I find living here has been so beneficial to my well being and health.
