A friend of mine and I looking too serious at the Castle.
The 5th largest bridge in the world.

Club Lux: apparently one of the top 10 clubs in the world, very fun but hard to believe its rated that high! Just hanging out there with some of my friends...
One of the pretty views from Sintra!

Loved this beachy part of Cascais...I had the best Sea Bass of my life at a nearby restaurant to here.

A fountain in one of the largest plazas, and though its hard to tell the brickwork is extremely original in all of the streets of Lisboa just like here...

In Spain, there is a tradition called "botellon," which literally translates as "bottle." We decided to bring this tradition where you drink in a park or a street to Lisbon, as it is a very key part of the young Spanish life! It sounds sketchy but is very safe and common...

The oldest "cerveceria" or bar/winery in all of Portugal. Portugal is very famous for "vino verde" or "green wine," which is a fresh, new wine with a distinct taste.
A great city view!
Atop the hill in the background is the castle, and to the far right is the Rio Tejo (river).
Lisboa was an interesting environment, much more open and agressive than the more formal and conservative environment of most madrileños (residents of Madrid). I saw about 10 fights break out in Lisboa! I also made it to three separate towns: Lisboa, the capitol of Portugal; Cascais, a resort town with beautiful beaches and great seafood only an hour away, and a town called Sintra where the Royal family in Lisboa vacations.
