I look back at these photos, and I can’t believe it’s been almost a year that we spent a wonderful day exploring and enjoying everything…
Medieval Castle Walls with Cobblestone Alleys Forever Marked of History & Culture || Óbidos, Portugal
Of all the books in the world, the best stories are found within the pages of a passport, beneath cobblestone alleys and the corners of withered castle walls. That’s where true history still remains.

A Moliceiro Boat Ride through Aveiro’s Ria || The “Portuguese Venice”
I’ve never been to Venice or Italy, but I have been to the “Portuguese Venice”… Oh sweet colorful Aveiro, I had only been to your well known and lovely beaches, Costa Nova with your iconic Aveiro striped homes all perfectly lined in different colors.

Traveling to…Sitio
It was a day trip I took twelve years ago, but it was these views from the must-see old village atop a cliff in Nazare, that inspired this three-day trip with the family this year. I remember my first time here, being in awe of how beautiful it all looked from the top and longing to be on…
