Hola Reader! It's been nice being back in Lisbon especially now that the weather is getting better. For the month of May, many parks around the city are hosting 'Jardins Abertos' (open gardens) especially ones that are rarely open to the public. Some are open but cost a fee, but for the days they're open for this event they are free. I'm looking to start a separate list to share Lisbon related activities so let me know if you live in the city and/or plan to visit and want the tips.

Hola Reader! Whoops, last week got away from me. Traveling around Turkiye with my family and having limited WiFi didn't let help. But the trip was AMAZING!
