Lisbon Overview

There are few countries as affordable as they are popular. Not only does Portugal tick both of those boxes, but its capital is the embodiment of an exciting, modern city where you don’t need to spend a fortune.

I’ve been several times – my first trip was back in 2016 – and it’s been a great city to revisit and learn more from each and every time. Whether its new dishes, new restaurants or simply the lure of meeting new people, I always find an excuse for another trip back!
