in LOVE with LISBON

my dubai friend lulu met me in lisbon for a few days at the end of my trip. it was absolutely beautiful & is one of my new favorite cities. old european charm like paris, beautiful architecture, fabulous shopping, scenic streets, impressive monuments. i could go on and on but the photos will say it all better!

{this is the last of my travel posts...so i guess that means i better get back to work!}

    Shame on me, but I don't know that I would have even considered traveling to Lisbon (I've still got to get my husband to France, he's never been) but you've captured the city so beautifully that it is officially "on the list".

    I'm glad I found your blog. I totally dig your style.

    That looks like Lisbon is such a beautiful city...I will also have to put this city on my list of places to visit someday. Also, I love the white watch that you have on in the pictures and the gold bangles you have on with it. Where did you you get both the watch and bracelets? I would love to know!

    I went to Lisbon about 5 years ago, and I have that same picture of the guy with the accordion and his dog! So funny!

    We went there last August and I, too, fell in love with it. The Alfama district was my fav...

    Isn't it hard to go back to work?

    Lisbon is one of my favorite places too, but it always gets overlooked.

    I especially love all the tile work on the old buildings.

    Glad you had a fun vacation and good luck with your party tomorrow.

    Hope you stopped by a taverna to listen to some Fado music. Mariza is my favorite.

    Hi Caitlin,
    I've found you through Ana Antunes Facebook profile and I like your works very much :-)
    Lisbon is a very pleasent city although the natives don't agree so much :-)
    I reccommend you to visit other Portuguese regions, they are lovelly as well in their on ways.
    Regards,
    Catarina

    Being Portuguese I must agree with you. Lisbon is one beautiful city. But when you come back to Portugal you cannot skip Oporto... even more beautiful. Generally a great surprise for the visitors.
    Big hugs from Portugal.
