The feeling of Saudade at San Jose's Dia de Portugal

from Crosscurrents · host KALW

Saudade. It’s a word in Portuguese that describes a deep sense of longing, a bittersweet nostalgia for something that’s no longer here. For many in the Portuguese community of San Jose, it reflects the feeling of missing their home country. But celebrations like Dia de Portugal, or Portugal Day, offer opportunities to reconnect to culture through food, music, and celebration.
