Welcome back, travel Geeks! On this episode, we are embarking on a journey across the Atlantic to the stunning, coastal country of Portugal. Curtis is joined by guests Glenn and Rebecca, who recently returned from a trip centered around a beautiful destination wedding, alongside Joe and Karen Taylor, who bring their own Portuguese travel memories to the mix.

From the hilly, historic streets of Lisbon to the romantic heights of Sintra, this episode is packed with practical travel tips, incredible culinary reviews, and the kind of spontaneous travel stories that will inspire your next big adventure.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Navigating the steep, 45-degree streets of Lisbon and why rental car insurance is a non-negotiable must.
• Visiting the gorgeous but crowded Peña Palace and Quinta de Regaleira in Sintra.
• A deep dive into Portuguese food, from giant tiger prawns at Cervejaria Ramiro to the legendary pastéis de nata.
• The rising trend of "tin fish" (canned seafood) and bringing home a suitcase full of unique delicacies.
• A green Michelin star dining experience at a beautiful winery in Évora.
• Experiencing Fado, the traditional, hauntingly beautiful music of Portugal, during dinner.
• The hilarious mystery of the "stolen" wedding ham that kept the wedding party talking all weekend.

Beyond the sights and delicious meals, this episode highlights the true heart of travel: connection. Whether it's the pure hospitality of locals walking you to your hotel door, or laughing over shared jokes with a group of friends in a beautiful city, the connections we make are what truly make a trip magical.
