A short wile ago I spent a short week in Lisbon. I also traveled a bit within Portugal, driving as far south as Sines and as far west as Guincho, probably the most western promontory of the European Continent. Guincho is also known as a world class surfing, windsurfing and kitesurfing destination!

I adjusted to Lisbon real fast, it's such an interesting city, lot's to see. I do have an affinity for towns at the waters edge, they put their stamp on the dwelling, the architecture and the people that live there...

So I put together a short gallery for you to look at and maybe if I am lucky, develop a bit of an impression of Lisbon and it's surrounding country. They are not all great photos, some are simply there to tell the story. I stayed at Pension: Residencial Mar dos Açores. It is a simple but nice place, with a friendly owner and helpful staff, located near the center of town.

It's a short flight from Zürich to Lisbon; 2 hours and 20 minutes...
