Lisbon / Portugal blogs
Lisbon and Portugal isnpire hundreads of travel posts, bloggers and videos but there are a few that stand out for me which I check out regurarly.
HERE TO GO TO
http://www.wheretwogoto.com/category/around-portugal/around-lisbon/
A travel blog for Portugal and outside of it. Good tips for day or weekend trips from Lisbon. Written by expat couple in English.
SALT OF PORTUGAL
https://saltofportugal.com/about/
Mainly about Lisbon and Portugal. Different themes you can search for posts produced by small group of posts. I like that concept how they create this thing together. Nice artwork. They also have their own voicemap tour of Lisbon! And scarfs inspired by Lisbon tiles.In English.
LISBON BY LIGHT
https://www.lisbonbylight.com/lisbon-stories/
This is lovely even though more like a design blog. I love the idea of ’stories of Lisbon’ as locals of the city, often artists. Great strories and inspirations. Great way to discover portuguese brands and artists. Very ’arty’, very Lisboa.
THE LITTLE UPSIDE DOWN CAKE
http://www.littleupsidedowncake.com/category/lisbon-stories/
Like the name tells you already this about eating in Lisbon and elsewhere in the world. Another not a travel blog. You can look for recipes according to the time of the year, which is a fun idea. Love the posts of different cafés of Lisbon. Also stories behind the counter. Amazing photos!
LISBOA COOL / LISBON SECRETA / TIME OUT
Available in Portuguese as in English. These are all quite similar, commercial websites about Lisbon. Tips for visiting and learning more of it but also events, restaurants, cafes… Time Out comes out as a magazine once a week if you prefer.
VISUAL DIARY
https://www.lily.fi/blogit/visual-diary
In Finnish. Written by a graphic designer living in Lisbon for over 3 years. She writes about life, in general but especially in Lisbon. Great lists. Also about design. I love her photos. She also has a great instagram account worth following if you speak Finnish.
