Portugal is a combination of medieval heritage, vineyards, beautiful natural reserves, fado music, tiles decorating entire cities, welcoming people, and incredible coastal landscapes. It is often considered Spain’s little brother, but the reality is that Portugal is way different from its neighbor country and offers travelers a more peaceful atmosphere and incredibly cheap food!
It is not casual that Portugal makes travelers want to extend their stay in the country. Its modern cities of Lisbon and Porto attract a significant amount of digital nomads. Adventures and camper van owners choose the Algarve every year to chill and practice water sports. Nazaré holds prime-class waves every year that gather surfers coming from all around the world.
Portuguese vineyards are famous to produce one of the top ten best wines on our planet and if this all is not enough, wait to be serenaded with a fado at a local bar while having the best food. You will have second thoughts about taking that flight back to your country!

I have been to Portugal a few times now. Most of my trips have been to the Algarve area, but I have also traveled and camped throughout the center of the country on a road trip with my Portuguese friends! Although I haven’t visited yet any of the main Atlantic Coast cities (Lisbon and Porto), I have managed to get to know well all the main cities in Southern Portugal. These are Albufeira, Faro, Lagos, Tavira & Sagres. I have also visited a far amount of small beautiful Portuguese towns.
