Portugal

An 8 days trip

I wanted to go to Italy at first. But ended up visiting (with a friend), Budapest, Moscow for the World Cup, then Portugal.

Here is a quick recap of my trip to Portugal, where I spent the majority of the trip:

The people

The people of Portugal deserve their own part as they were super nice. Everyone talk French and/or English, so it was very convenient. We spent two days in Russia before visiting Portugal. In Russia it’s totally the opposite. It’s hard to find people speaking English.

The beaches

Oh, the beaches 🏖, the least I can say is AMAZING. Beautiful colors and landscapes. Lot of secret beaches you can’t reach unless you take a boat or a kayak (which we did).

We even watched dolphins 🐬 swimming in the ocean, yay!

The caves

Read the following in portuguese… SPECTACULAR.

The forest

We visited Sintra. A small town full of forests and a castle at the top of the mountain. We did some hiking to visit it. We don’t like simple tasks like taking a bus to the top.

It was a good escape from the beach as my eyes started developing an allergy for the blue color… Juuust kidding.

And of course, some photos (can’t share everything, there is a lot 😔):
