I've been on holiday this week in Porto. So far I've dropped 2* €10 somehow/somewhere on my travels. My showerthough is I wonder who found it, maybe it made their day, I hope so...
Yeah, I'm pretty annoyed right now, hence the post! I've got a nice travel wallet. However, I have a tendency when leaving a shop just to bung the change into my back pocket, and I think perhaps to retrieve change etc, the 10s have fallen out ffs, once is excusable, twice I'm an idiot lol. Porto is fantastic, having a great time, fortunately it's pretty cheap, and I'm at a time in my life were 20 is just annoying and I'm not crying only p*ssed! Can recommend:-)
Ha yes, I've also been to Lisbon, I did the Lisbon ½ marathon, they ran out of water at the water stations, I'll never forget that run! Yes everyone is happy to see you here in Porto, more 'locals bars' and restaurants. I also live in a provincial city, it's great. Lisbon feels a little too large, perhaps not as relaxing.
I agree! :D I don't want to be overly negative, there were some lovely places in Lisbon. We stayed in Picoas, a beautiful area. A visit to Belem was also very nice, a lovely (but seemingly affluent) neighborhood. Well worth the trip - for anyone reading and feeling down on Lisbon after reading this thread :)
