Chapito is another one of those places where you have to go if you’re ever in Lisbon. This circus school also houses a restaurant, including a terrace with a wonderful view and a bar where regularly a band plays on a former swimming pool which is transformed into a stage. Every sunday you can come here for live african music and in my experience, it’s always good!

One of the things I was really looking forward to when my best friend came to see me in Lisbon, was paying a visit to the CCB, or the Centro Cultural de Belém. We both love visiting museums of modern art (the fact that we spent all our money on museums when we were in Vienna says enough) so this was a must-do during her stay. The CCB was one of the most fun museums we’ve visited together: one of the artworks included a sandpit, parrots, a tent and required bare feet, while another one existed out of a room with mattresses on the floor, rock’n’roll music and projections all over. I’ll warn you right now for the photo overload, but I just couldn’t resist showing you all the wonderful art this museum has on display! Oh – and they get two thumbs up for their creative use of signage!
Despite the fact that I live in Portugal at the moment, I’m obsessed with fall looks and beautiful coats at the moment. Because without heating, double glass or any isolation in most houses, 15 degrees celsius outside means 15 degrees celsius inside… My winter coats are unfortunately still in Belgium, so at the moment I’m warming my hands with hot tea and wearing two jumpers at the same time. Oh well, you can’t have it all right! So, with that in mind, I’ve been browsing the internet for pretty coats. These are my favorites!

The former convent, Convento da Ordem do Carmo, and it’s church were severely damaged during the earthquake in Lisbon in 1755. Until this day, the ruins of the Igreja do Carmo, are the biggest proof of the earthquake. Nowadays, it’s an archeological museum which you can visit for only €2,50 if you’re a student. In my opinion, you don’t have to go there to see the ‘archeological treasures’, but just to enjoy these breathtaking ruins.
