Photo Diary: Portugal

An open window overlooking Douro Valley's hills and vineyards, shining light into the room of Quinta da Gricha

Oh hey there,

It is I. Back from our 12-day trip to Portugal, and let me tell you, third time IS the charm. This time I got to enjoy it as an adult (barely), a blogger (aka a committed review-reader, instagram-scroller, and world-wide-web-researcher), and alongside the love of my life, who is now forever traumatized by the words ‘Miradouro’ and ‘Douro Valley’. Details to follow, but for now, I will leave you with a snippet of what these eyes have seen, these mouths have tasted, and these blistered feet have walked. Hope you enjoy!
