I’ve been on holiday this week in Porto. So far I’ve dropped 2* €10 somehow/somewhere on my travels. My showerthough is I wonder who found it, maybe it made their day, I hope so…

    My brother found 20 US dolars in the street the other day. We don’t even live in US. He bought everyone pizza! For the person that lost the 20, we are forever grateful for the pizza

    How do you drop a ten, twice?

    And how’s Porto? It’s on my to-do list, I’ve been to Lisbon and Lagos. Gotta say I love Portugal.

      Yeah, I’m pretty annoyed right now, hence the post! I’ve got a nice travel wallet. However, I have a tendency when leaving a shop just to bung the change into my back pocket, and I think perhaps to retrieve change etc, the 10s have fallen out ffs, once is excusable, twice I’m an idiot lol. Porto is fantastic, having a great time, fortunately it’s pretty cheap, and I’m at a time in my life were 20 is just annoying and I’m not crying only p*ssed! Can recommend:-)

      I preferred Porto over Lisbon: more laid back, beautiful old city, friendly people, some of which I kinda missed in Lisbon.

      I don’t miss the staircase next to that Eiffel bridge though, that was brutal. 2 years on and my body still remembers the exhaustion.

        Ha yes, I’ve also been to Lisbon, I did the Lisbon ½ marathon, they ran out of water at the water stations, I’ll never forget that run! Yes everyone is happy to see you here in Porto, more ‘locals bars’ and restaurants. I also live in a provincial city, it’s great. Lisbon feels a little too large, perhaps not as relaxing.
