I would move to Lisbon, Portugal tomorrow and here’s why…
Lisbon was one of the most beautiful cities i have ever been too. It isn’t just the unique architecture that makes this cities so amazing, its everything! The people were so incredibly kind, The food was absolutely delicious, the way the city was designed was unreal. Everything about Lisbon was PERFECT!
They have a very peaceful history which I think is so beautiful. Instead of war soldiers bought flowers and put them in their guns to show they were not going to fight. The city was hit but a huge fire on one side and a huge tsunami on the other side and the damage still remains on some buildings which gives the city a cool look into its unique past. The sidewalks are all tile and different colors and so are the buildings. With each building a different color and design than the one next to it gives it such a dope vibe!
Lisbon also has cable cars and a replica of the Golden Gate Bridge both from San Francisco which i thought was super interesting!
The streets are really narrow and on a big incline so there are pegs on the sidewalk for you to hold while you walk up the road.
If you are every in Europe PLEASE stop in Lisbon for a few days and just take it in! A few interesting things to note if traveling there on a budget, you can buy a card for the amount of days you’ll bee there and it will allow you to take unlimited cable car rides. This is how we got to see so much of the city in once a few days! You can get an entire meal (Kebob, Fries, & a drink) for only 4 euros. And Take a trip to Barrio Alto which is a city that is up really high on in incline, but there are so many bars and restaurants and people partying in the streets, take the metro there. You will be amazed how far up escalators can go!
Lisboa, you have had my heart since the first day i arrived. I will be back one day!
