A Portuguese Affair
An Introduction to Portugal
Episode notes
It’s no surprise that Portugal - with its blend of natural beauty, rich culture, world-class cuisine and incredible wine - is a favorite among travelers in the know. What is surprising is how little the rest of us know about this small nation with such a big history; and how it’s often overlooked in favor of its larger, more famous neighbor, Spain.
But, Catarina Araújo, the Lisbon-born writer of one of the top Portugal blogs on the net, A Portuguese Affair, is here to change all that.
In this Portugal primer, Catarina lets you in on why Portugal makes such an incredible destination, and gives you some key practical tips to help you start crafting the trip of a lifetime.
