Пост в Travel Companions in Spain & Portugal (Iberian Peninsula)

Dear friends, I will be travelling alone during the period from August 13 to September 4.

It would be fantastic to spend some good time or travel together with some interesting non-smoking travel companions who have similar interests during my trip. I am sure we will learn a lot from each other's culture, language, and travel knowledge.

I am posting below my itinerary and things I would like to do during my trip for your references.

If you are interested in travelling with me or just meeting up with me, please send me a PRIVATE MESSAGE.

Thanks a lot for reading my post. Happy travelling!

Sincerely, GB

I would like to use Lisbon as the base/headquarter of my trip.

First, I plan to visit Lisbon and cities around it (Sintra, Queluz, Mafra, Ericeira, and Torres Vedras) from 8/13 to 8/16 (4 days and 4 nights).

Then I would like to visit the South of Portugal (Faro, Olhao, Lagos, Portimao, Sagres, Cabo de Sao Vicente, Praia da Luz, Praia da Roche, and Silves ) from 8/17 to 8/20 (4 days and 4 nights).

Then, I plan to go back to Lisbon on August 21.

After, I plan to visit Peniche, Obidos, and Caldas da Rainha from August 22 to August 24 (3 days and 2 nights).

Then, I would like to visit Porto from August 24 to August 27 (4 days and 4 nights). During this period, I would like to visit some cities/towns around Porto (Viana do Castelo, Barcelos, Amarante, Vila do Conde, and Ponte de Lima).

After, I plan to visit some Western coastal cities in Spain (Baiona, Vigo, Pontevedra, and Santiago de Compostela) from August 28 to August 31 (4 days and 4 nights).

I plan to return to Porto on September 1.

On September 2, I would like to visit Viseu from Porto.

Finally, I plan to return to Lisbon on 9/3 and fly back to Boston on 9/4.

I am a friendly, energetic, enthusiastic, thoughtful, warm, clean, honest, and funny woman who is eager to learn about your beautiful country, people, and culture. During this trip, I would love to meet non-smoking hosts/friends and spend a lot of good time with them in exploring their city/town/village and region.

During this trip, I would like to visit beautiful beaches, islands, music and arts festivals, botanical gardens, castles, mansions, palaces, parks, natural places (waterfalls, rivers, mountains, volcanoes, valleys, hills...), places of worship (churches, mosques, temples, synagogues, shrines), monasteries, and convents.

I also would like to explore interesting non-touristic places in these cities/towns. I love multicolored and ornate architecture with floral patterns. I love buildings and houses with vivid colors.

In addition, I would like to visit fine/visual/performing arts, textile/costumes/clothes, and crafts museums.

Furthermore, I would love to share my music with my future hosts/friends if I could play piano at some public places and/or someone's house/apartment.
