My new Portuguese collegue L told me his background story about the linkage of Macau, I just didn't pay attention at all and today, we were chatting again and the conversation reinforces the love story of his parents.
L came from Portugal last October, he told me that he visited Macao once and he loved in first sight and decided to live and work in Macau, as a result, he applied a job here.
He has a very special background story - his grandfather was a judge in Macau many many years ago, therefore his mother lived in Macau when she was small. When she grew up, she became a teacher in the Portuguese school( Escola Pedro Nolasco). L's father worked as a medical doctor in the Navy and arrived Macau in the 60'. The two met in Macau and fell in love.
They got married and went back to Portugal, after 40 years, two of them have 4 kids and L is one of their children. They never came back to Macau after their marriage.
Their son was attracted to this wonderful land and is now working in Macau, and the two will come to visit their son in the coming October for one month.
I bet two of them will be very surpised of the changes for Macau, but anyway,after listening to L's story, I conclude his parents' story is really romantic.
C'est romantique!
