Recently met His Excellency João Manuel Mendes Ribeiro de Almeida, Ambassador of Portugal to India, for a conversation on the evolving India–Portugal relationship.

We discussed the growing economic and strategic engagement between the two countries, particularly in the context of the India–EU Free Trade Agreement, and the new opportunities it could create for trade, investment and business collaboration.

Our conversation also covered the deep historical and cultural links between India and Portugal and the considerable scope for expanding cultural exchanges and people-to-people ties.

It was useful to hear the Ambassador’s perspective on how the relationship can develop further as India and Europe enter a new phase of economic engagement.

To live in a country means to learn their language and understand the culture. Great initiative by the Embassy of Portugal in Lisbon.

As my new poetry book - RidingWithTheSilverWolf went into the final draft, I realised the importance of a poetry community. Listening to each other, sharing, and supporting poets brings unparalleled joy in this fragmented world.

Embracing vulnerability can be one of the most powerful steps toward healing and personal growth. By allowing ourselves to be open and honest about our feelings, we create opportunities for connection, understanding, and profound transformation.

India Stanza is a supportive space where we listen, share and conduct poetry workshops at Monthly Meetings offline & online, under the aegis of The Poetry Society of UK

Welcome to the June edition of India Stanza on 28.06.26, at 6.00pm at Kunzum GK2.

Delhi: On central theme of her book 'A Poetic Journey of Awakening and Courage: Riding with the Silver Wolf', Senior Technical Officer, Embassy of Portugal in New Delhi, Dr. Bindiya Bedi Charan Noronha, says, "This book has many themes, you know, it also draws on spirituality within India and it draws on the feminine identity and the ecological awareness as well as social justice. It talks about feminine identity, so I cannot say that it has one central theme. It's like a journey on the waves and the waves are travelling to all the different areas of life."

I was the first winner of the scholarship between India and Portugal under the Cultural Agreement. So, I was very influenced by the country. It's a small country with a lot of ocean surrounding it. And you know, today is 10th June. It's the National Day of Portugal and I think it's very lovely to talk about this topic because it is commemorated on the death of the poet, Louis de Camões. And somewhere, you know, I was already very influenced by Rabindranath Tagore and then I was influenced by his writings..."

#RidingWithTheSilverWolf is about conscious living. This is not poetry that escapes reality. It is poetry that leans into it—calling readers to awaken, to listen, to question, to act, and to love more deeply. It seeks to awaken readers to the sacred within the ordinary and the responsibility within freedom of our democratic country.

We have a lot of freedom in our country. We are a democratic country. You know, people are talking and there are protests. But at the same time, we need to have a responsible freedom.
