How fun! I am so happy for you plus what a cool surprise! You have an awesome dad! Lisbon is one of my favorite cities in the world! I was so out of my mind stoked when I found out Steemfest was going to be there this year! Unfortunately, I have some other plans that came up during the time it's going on plus you know, the volcano ;) JK.
Have a great time! I had the time of my life when I was in Portugal and the food was just incredible ;) You'll love it!
Thanks so much for the telling me how much you loved Portugal. I have to admit, of my list of places I would want to visit in Europe, Lisbon did not make the top 10. That's is totally due to the fact that I know nothing about it. So, I am excited about clearing up my ignorance. Andy, yeah, my Dad is pretty cool. Again, thanks so much for the awesome comment @heart-to-heart
I have a confession... when I was growing up my dad had a friend who owned a villa in the Azores off the coast of Portugal so he asked us my whole life to go visit there for free and every time my dad tried to plan that trip, I refused to go as I was just completely uninterested!
I only ended up there because it was CHEAP TO FLY TO FROM PARIS LMAO! I was really upset about having to go but I was on a budget and it made the most sense to fly into it to get to Spain. Out of my whole Euro trip, it was my favourite so do give it a chance, sounds like you're more excited now ;)
Make sure to go to the beach! <3
Oh, I intend to give it a chance for sure. Thanks so much for the encouragement
