About Me

Portugal is one of my favorite places to send people because it’s the perfect mix of beautiful, delicious, walkable, and surprisingly easy to love. It’s got history and charm, but also that effortless “sit here and enjoy life” energy.

My Portugal highlights:

  • Porto (yes, we’re drinking port)
  • Food tours that make you feel like you instantly understand the city
  • Sintra for castles + fairytale vibes
  • And honestly? Portugal is just… vibes on vibes

How I plan Portugal trips:

Portugal shines when you do it with smart pacing - enough structure to see what you came for, plus enough flexibility to wander, snack, and soak it all in. I’ll help you choose the right home bases (Lisbon, Porto, and beyond), plan day trips that are worth the time, and book experiences that elevate the trip without making it feel overly “toured.”

Expect:

  • Great neighborhoods and boutique hotel recommendations
  • A mix of guided experiences and free time
  • Food + drink experiences that feel fun, not formal
  • An itinerary that flows

If you want a trip that feels rich and memorable but still laid-back—Portugal is the move, and I’ll help you do it right.

Thank you for noticing. ”This is why I love building Portugal trips with Sintra as a highlight. It’s not just a day trip -...
