Description
I live in the Alfama area, so I can truthfully say that I’ll be showing you my home!
We’ll cover the roots of Fado, the area that survived the earthquake, the influence of the Age of Discovery, the Portuguese fishing tradition, José Saramago – our Nobel Prize recipient, and much more.
We’ll see locals grilling fish on the streets, old neighbours going about their daily lives, kids playing on the streets… This is the hidden, authentic Lisbon!
