Hello
For this year's summer vacation, I and Mr.A decided to go once again on a road trip in the northern region of Portugal and visiting other cities we haven't been.
We visited in total 4 different cities during our trip, which I will be sharing with you on this series of posts called "On a trip through Portugal". My plan is to do two posts per city as we spent about 2 days at each location and there is quite some info to share with you.
It won't be just a photo diary of each town but I will also give you some recommendations on where to stay and eat.
I hope you enjoy it this series! And of course, seeing more of my beautiful home country Portugal.
Let's first start with GUARDA.
