RE: SketchTravel in Portugal

in #travel6 years ago

Excellent post!

I am amazed that you saw so much here in Portugal. That's not what the typical tourist does. Who gave you the idea to visit all those towns and places?

Beautiful sketches. You are making a very good promotion of my country. Thanks! 😃

Hello @trincowski - I'm glad you like the post. Let's see... My wife has been wanting to go to Portugal for some time. There was a Japanese poet who lived in Santa Cruz for a few years, and his writing inspired many Japanese to visit Portugal. We did stop in that town and saw the plaque, the house he lived in etc. We have friends who love to go to Portugal and they told us about favorite places too. But mostly my wife read and researched places to go, and she scheduled the trip. A couple we know go every year to the chestnut festival in the fall, I can't remember which town it's in now. But what's not to like in Portugal? Good food, wine, so much history, beautiful mountains as well as seaside.

Lucky you! 🍀
You had a much better experience than the majority. Maybe you and your wife should be travel guides / agents and bring some more people here. 😎

Haha yes that would be fun!
