LISBON: WHY VISIT NOW
"There was a time when Lisbon was far from the spotlight. Smaller than its neighboring European capitals, the Portuguese city went under the radar for a while, with most tourists preferring the country’s balmy southern coast. But things took a turn over the last decade, thanks to a series of renovation projects and a surge of creative and tech spaces, all of which have contributed to a new wave of visitors. Now, it seems everyone is raving about it. Digital nomads come and go (Lisbon has one of Europe’s largest nomad communities), but many have permanently moved here, drawn by the city’s laidback lifestyle and the unique blend of old and new.” — Joana Taborda
