    Porto was really walking friendly, even late at night and early Morning. I never felt threatened. Also at a side walk cafe, I had calamari. I felt so welcomed from the staff, as I people watched. This was across the park and street from the stock exchange.

    I'm from Lisbon, live in Ericeira, but I love the city of Porto. Everything is beautiful there. About the Treaty of Windsor, It is actually the oldest diplomatic alliance in the world still in force, it was signed on May 9, 1386. Let me tell you, an anemone (in portuguese anémona) is like a flower in the sea.

    As a Canadian who is looking to winter and eventually move to Portugal, Oporto has my heart.
    My favourite day is taking the bus to a restaurant at the far end of the ocean boulevard for breakfast then walking back to the Port houses. A stop in Afurada (a small quaint fishing neighbourhood) for lunch a must. It’s a long walk, 2-3 hours with stopping along the way for pictures but it’s mostly flat. After a Port, head up to Jardim de Morro for the sunset and hopefully there will be a live band. Walk up the (steep) hill behind the park to Mosteiro da Serra do Pilar for some even more stunning views. Oporto/ Gaia have some really amazing miradouros (scenic lookouts), you definitely need to stay longer just to see all of them. 😊

    I love your video brother, It was remind me about the place I used to visited in Porto. It make me want to visit again after I saw your video, but it just costing a lot for me to go honestly. but hopefully I can find the way to go there again in the rest of my life. I love you very much Porto.
