Headed to the Algarve early July with my wife and 7 year old son. Obviously tons of resources out there but curious if folks here had suggestions on things to do? Eats?

Absolutely adore Portugal. We
Like family friendly Salema - it’s a tiny fishing village with a cool beach with some dinosaur footprints in the rocks on the west end of the beach. Stay is Lagos or Luz a bit more cheaply. Rent a paddle boat right on the beach in Salema. We adore this restaurant https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g445039-d1453705-Reviews-Restaurante_O_Lourenco-Salema_Faro_District_Algarve.html. They are friendly family owned business.

North of Faro, Praia de Marinha carvoeiro - great food. If you get north check out the walled medival town of Obidos- if you go at festival time they have costumes you can dress up for a few euros in period costumes. Sagres has a nice hiking point which I’m sure you have read about. Portugal had some geocache locations which is a fun hunt with kids his age. https://rove.me/to/portugal/fiesa-sand-city. There is a huge sand castle contest in the summer ( I think it in may). But this area has very nice beaches ! Try their fish , potatoes and soup. Have fun -it s a great place.

Hi guys,
I'm lucky I landed C jobs at BCG and Bain in Doha. Please, I need your opinion on the below

1.BCG is T1 in the region while Bain doesn't seem so. Do you confirm? And the trend?

2.Interviews/negotiations went great with Bain vs BCG more acrimonious. Does my experience reflect structural cultural differences (pressure, up or out, cutthroat)?

3.What about transfers to the US-EU?

4. Type of cases

Your personal opinion: would you prioritize BCG T1 status over Bain "friendly culture"?

Lost sense of maximizing points/mileage value for int’l flights. Why is Detla redeeming so much more for some routes than Chase UR and even other partner airlines? E.g. non-stop economy btw Detroit-Seoul // Delta redeeming 160k on its own route while Chase UR 123k & Korean Air 80k for same route (code share)... I get it all depends on timing but still weird directly using Delta Skymiles on its own Delta route is more expensive than going through other methods....
