Monhe?
The ignorant ones or the ones who havent been to Dockes, Lisboa must have wondered what the #$&* is "Monhe". Having had a quite a significant Portuguese influence in the last two years of life ranging from Port Wine to fraking out on Pasties to believing that Cabu De Roca being the most beautiful sight i witnessed apart from Aishwarya Rai in Time Square ofcourse.
Anyways....i am getting carried away....Monhes are a leading race of budding entrepreneurs of Indian Origin who are set out to conquer the "Bloemen" industry of Portugal....They are one of the most persistent, enterprising lot of individuals who i came accross in Lisbon....at Dockes.
So now in a Nutshell....Monhe's are:
- Brownies (Indians)....those who know some history would know how they got to Lisbon.
- Budding Entrepreneurs
- Persistent Individuals
- Ones who hang out in the vicinity of cool clubs in Lisbon
- Got Damn It, they sell flowers (roses)
Though i am beginning to seriously doubt if these people are of Indian Origin, but I will take my Portuguese friends at face value.
Goncalo, Pita, PO check the damn spellings in this blog and mail me the corrections....mind you of only the Portuguese words. You guys should be proud that the first blog is dedicated to you guys and ofcourse to all the Monhe's in this world.

Sathe House,
Your first blog is simply beautiful. Now, don't be a lasy bastard and update it frequently so that you can know what is happening with the most famous monhé living in uncle Sams land...
Cheerio,
