SPRING IN PORTUGAL

 

What better way to start of this blog than with a post about travelling?! Last Month me and P. visited Central Portugal for the first time and we enjoyed it a lot. This area of Portugal has amazing beaches with beautiful high cliffs, green hills, and lovely little towns with tiled houses .  We drove around a lot in our rented car and ate lot’s and lot’s of very fresh seafood. We stayed in the cutest little white house, found on http://www.natuurhuisje.nl (a real great website if you’re looking for special private houses to rent) near Alfeizerão (one hour drive from Lisboa. Tips and links at the end of this post but some pics first!
