I think of all the cities I’ve visited this year, Lisbon is the one city that really seduced me. The fact that Lisboetas still “meet for coffee” (aka: bica) instead of take it “to go” is quite sexy. . Then there is Lisbon’s street art. The other day, I saw this tiny tunnel. A tunnel that had its archway covered on both sides in a cartoon comic strip. Each strip tells a part of Lisbon history, from the Phoenicians founding the city ( btw Lisbon is older than Rome) to …
