6 January 2012, after three years of pre-production and hard work the Sandgrains team finally leaves for production in Cape Verde. Ze' and Gabriel left from Gothenburg, Sweden and joined Francesca and Jordie in London.
At the Lisbon stop-over we got together with Mirco who was travelling from Italy. We landed in Praia at 1 o'clock at night, exhausted by the long journey and the stressful days before departure.
