Discovering Portugal With My Portuguese Girlfriend | Almourol Castle | Ribatejo | Traditional Food

This is the first vlog of our Portugal Series, where you can vote for our next destination on our Instagram stories. Right after posting the videos, we’ll post a poll on our Instagram Stories where you’re going to be able to vote for the place you would like to see us on the next Friday's vlog.

On today’s video, we did a lot of things, first, we went to Castelo de Almourol, which is a Castle on a tiny island in the middle of the river Tejo. We had to take a little boat to go over there, it was really nice!
After that, we went to Almourol Restaurant, which is just a few minutes away from the castle. We love trying new food, people from the restaurant were so nice, they offered us a tasting of different kinds of olive oil (which was really interesting) and we even tried eels for the first time, they were delicious…! Our last stop was visiting Constancia, a small city nearby that is famous because of Luis Vaz de Camoes, the most famous poet of Portugal’s history.
Before leaving, we stopped by Quinta da Cardiga, a private house (recommended by a local guide), beautiful although it is very old and abandoned.

Now it’s time for you to choose our next destination! Sintra or Cascais?? Vote on our Instagram Stories!

Thank you.

We’re Maria and Du, we met shooting a commercial in Lisbon in 2018.
We started a distance relationship flying twice a month (Lisbon - Barcelona) and after a few months of that, we finally moved in together in Barcelona, where Du was born and raised (his parents are from South Korea).
We started our Youtube channel because we love traveling, we always enjoy our trips and we wanted to keep our memories through nice videos, now we can share them with you.
Our final goal would be traveling full-time and someday, helping people around the world doing good.
