PS We also have academic links with the Greenlines Institute in Portugal so a four-way partnership would be feasible.

I sent my post about presidential heritage as my intention was to create a European Presidential Heritage Trail. I work at the Lech Walesa Foundation, Warsaw, Poland, and I wanted to revive the little villages/ rural areas where Lech Walesa came from by doing research about them and thus raising awareness about them. Presidential Heritage Trail is such a narrow idea that we might not be able to find the third partner, so we may need to refocus a bit. I have already a group of historians from Romania willing to cooperate with me. Since I can't find the third partner and my project which in a way will touch upon the adaptive use of landscapes (perhaps also buildings - the little house in which Lech Walesa was raised as a child is now vacant and turning into a ruin day by day), do you think you could join us in the project? We still have some time to discuss details, but now we need to find someone with roughly the same focus. The question is also whether the common ground for our cooperation would be the approach to the problem, or the object of the problem. Will you focus on examining buildings and landscapes in your own country, or would you like to pursue your research in Poland by examining the objects, landscapes that I mentioned above? There surely is a huge potential for you to contribute to the project. If this project works out, we will surely be investigating both local community and regional characteristics.
