Yup! I just got back 2 weeks ago! Such a great area. I stayed in Cais do sodre near downtown and it was perfect. Easily walkable to so much stuff too! I'd highly recommend visiting Sintra

I just came back a week ago! Stayed in Portugal for a week 5 nights in Lisbon and 2 in Porto (took the train in between). From Lisbon I went to Sintra, Belem and spent an afternoon at Calcavados beach after Belem (the weather was still warm). The touristic attractions didn’t take that much time as is but I definitely recommend just blending in the culture and taking your time to walk around, have great food and wine. I also did an Airbnb experience to visit the Douro valley and vineyards from Porto that was a once in a lifetime experience!!

I went a few years back - only regret is not exploring some of the the nearby coastal towns! Lisbon was one of my favorite places I've been but I'd definitely recommend looking into additional travel outside of the city! In Lisbon, I stayed in a river view airbnb in Alfama and thought there were some great walkable locations

Went 3 weeks ago. For high-end food, Belcanto was awesome, but pricey. For more affordable dinners, we really enjoyed Sr. Lisboa and Fam Kitchen. Time Out Market is great with tons of options for lunch.

Definitely spend a day in Sintra (tons to see there) and see if you can make it to Cascais to check out Boco di Inferno.

If you’re hoping to find a housing deal, you’re out of luck in the short term.
Maybe if you can deal with the higher payments for the next 3 years and sell/refinance above today’s prices you’ll be ok, but this isn’t going to be pretty.

Hi Fishes, I would like to know if any team here gets MacBook.

I have realized I grew up in a household where my dad did not treat my mom as an equal. He belittles her, is rude and convinced his way is the only way.

It is painful to say, but some of this shows up in me and in my relationship. I am starting to catch myself, and it to me seems to be more of a reaction than anythjng that is ever intentional.

Wondering if anyone has dealt with something similar, and any success in making changes besides therapy. Cont. in comments
