Filomena Kotila broke the news to reporters about the cabbage that she will not harvest this year at Christmas, as is customary, “due to lack of time.” “What I gain most from moving to the countryside, at the moment, is reducing air pollution, which is something that should be talked about more. We may see a ‘precautionary programme’ around this in the future,” says the broadcaster.
Filomena Cautela has a stance on city planning and how it can impact residents’ lifestyle. “We do not live in a healthy way in Lisbon and Porto, in short, in the cities. All the people who have to live in the city – and not in the center, because only foreigners live there – do not have an organization designed for their health.”
And in the countryside, close to Lisbon, Filomena Cutila gained “health”, but not time. “Being in the field is annoying,” he jokes. “Every day there is a pipe, the tree falls, it’s annoying.” “I still have a house in Lisbon, but I have moved permanently,” he confirms.
Filomena Kotila has a vegetable garden she got from her mother, where she says she grows “cabbage, lettuce, carrots, onions and a lot of zucchini.” “My figs just won’t grow, I don’t know what’s wrong with that fig tree! I have a dog that kills bugs and a lot of moles.
