Portugal

“Lisbon's tiled hillsides and sea-facing light. Pastéis de nata at a sidewalk table. Europe's quietly beautiful western edge.”

Highlights

• ·Alfama's hillside streets, tiled facades, and Fado drifting through open windows
• ·Pastéis de nata at a sidewalk table with an espresso, one of the better food memories
• ·Tram 28 winding through neighborhoods the rest of the city forgot to modernize
• ·The light in Lisbon is different: golden, low, and the reason painters come here
