Lisbon, Portugal

(Late-2017, 3 WEEKS)

 

  • Unusually more expensive than assumed for being Portugal. Groceries, rent, and restaurants are similar to US (except the cheaper places you can seek out with a bit of searching)
  • The bus system is frustrating, to keep it mild. Busses are never on time (I waited 30 minutes once), especially on the smaller streets. Confirmed this with locals. Busses look different which causes confusion because you have to wave at them to stop for you. To refill your card, a machine will read your card, but will not be able to recharge it. Trains and metro are on time.
  • Hot during the day (30C/80F) and cold at night (sometimes windy) (15C/60F), most nights
  • Super, super windy
  • No cooking instructions on packaged items you buy from the grocery store
