Portugal Pt. 1 - Lisbon

October 24, 2018
Lisbon

Hi, friends! I realized that after my Seattle trip, I didn’t post any photos, and I wanted to get better about that! These are just some of the highlights from our vacation to Portugal. You can see more on my instagram (posted photos & highlighted stories), but I wanted to share a little more info here.

We arrived on Tuesday, Sept 11th checked into our airbnb a little early. Which was great - bc it was about 90 degrees the city is HILLY…and our room was in a 5th floor walkup.

Some highlights from Lisbon:

  • Our neighborhood! We had some amazing meals at: Santa Rita, Prado, Fabrica Lisboa, AO PE DA SE, Cruzes Credo. Some pics below!

  • The pastel de nata *drool*

  • The tile *heart eyes*

  • The National Tile Museum

  • Sintra (I will do a separate post for this!)

  • TimeOut Market

  • Ginja (a local sour cherry liquor)

  • The hills! jk jk…lol but it was such a beautiful city that we just dealt with them! AND there are some free and open to the public elevators between hills/neighborhoods that were life savers

Ok, pictures!
