Personal information: After working with several Portuguese consultants on the project, I planned a visit to Lisbon. Interestingly, none of the consultants wanted to meet us; perhaps Portuguese hospitality differs from that of Germany, Spain, Romania, etc., where we were always welcome. What's the story? In early May, we wanted to escape the bad weather in Germany, but while the sun was shining in Germany with temperatures well over 20 degrees Celsius, it was raining and very cold in Lisbon... What did I enjoy? Definitely the port wine and the amazing fish and seafood dishes. And, a unique experience, Axel Rose as the lead singer of AC/DC in Lisbon. Brilliant! |
