Porto, Portugal!

Porto is a city of color, history, intrinsic structures, diversity, nightlife, wine and amazing food. This trip has been the first time I have ever set foot on Portuguese soil.

First impression of Porto, it is a maze city! It requires you to have some sort of a map to get around (I recommend the application maps.me, it does not need Wi-Fi). However, once you begin to explore the city you see their economic history, wineries along the riverside, bridges, as well as the beautiful and colorful façade of the buildings.

DSCN1254 Keep walking further and you discover the amazing vantage points and an amazing little restaurant called Lareira (which I 100% recommend). This inspirational city is hard to describe with text, therefore I though I would do something different with this post and solely present you with different pictures and videos that caption different parts of my trip and describe each of the moments. Enjoy.

As you can tell from just a few pictures, this trip was amazing. Definitely a a place to put on the bucket list. Now, for next weeks preview… I went to my version of Disney World, think EU. See you then.
