In Sintra
Thursday, October 30th, 2008
Sintra is another easy day trip from Lisbon. Aboslute highlight is the Palace of Pena, constructed in the middle of the 19th century.
In Belem

Belem is my favorite side-trip from Lisbon. Stroll along the waterfront and you’ll feel like you are walking into another place and time.
Day-trip to Palinuro
Tuesday, August 19th, 2008
Palinuro is a slightly longer train ride south of Salerno, about an hour and a half. But it is worth the trip, with some of the most beautiful beaches I have seen.
In Salerno

Rome and Naples are crowded with tourists in August, so I headed south to the smaller city Salerno. From Salerno various pleasant day-trips can be made.
