  • Coimbra Portugal was love at first sight! During our visit to Coimbra we learned so much about Portuguese history and culture. Did you know Coimbra is Portugal's third largest city? And that it used to be the capital of Portugal? And that they have their own unique style of Fado music? Or that it is home to Portugal's most prestigious university? Ok, I'll stop now.

      Hi :) Thanks for watching! Yes, so we did sleep in Coimbra for 4 nights. I think it's better to stay in the center because that's for sure where everything happens and it's so walkable, but because we are traveling on a budget, we stayed outside of town (10 minute uber ride or so). It was a great apartment though! I'm going to leave the link here for you: www.airbnb.com/rooms/49881568?guests=1&adults=1&s=67&unique_share_id=0e3d86a6-3cce-4a8d-8afd-85218ac1427b safe travels to paradise 🩵🇵🇹

    Actually, Lisbon and Porto are not split by the river like Coimbra is, the south bank of the Tagus River doesn't belong to the city of Lisbon and the south bank of the Douro River doesn't belong to the city of Porto. 😉

    I'm living near to the stadium here in Coimbra for nearly two years now. I really lived in such a lot of countries and cities, it's astonishing. In 2017, I became a widower due to lack of safety in Buenos Aires. In 2018, I resettled to Tigre. In 2021, I left the American continent forever, I return only as a tourist. Numbeo QOL life index on the internet is very good comparing cities and countries. A little bit better than Coimbra in Madeira. Pastelaría Toledo is one of my favorites. ( 0:48)
