Porto or Lisbon: An Honest Comparison for Travellers Planning a Long Stay

March 29, 2026 by Joao BurnsLeave a Comment

The Porto-versus-Lisbon debate has been running for as long as budget airlines have served both cities. For a weekend trip, the answer barely matters - both are excellent and you should visit both. But for travellers planning a month or longer, the differences between Portugal's two major cities start to matter in ways that no weekend can reveal. I have spent extended time in both. Here is what I have learned about living in each, rather than … [Read more...]

The Backpack That Floats: How Inflatable Kayaks Rewrote My Travel Rules

March 25, 2026 by Thomas FranklinLeave a Comment

A rigid kayak strapped to a rental car roof in Portugal cost me 47 euros in unexpected fees and a heated argument with an airport shuttle driver. That was three years ago.
