In my last post about my trip to Lisboa, I want to give you one last must-go! While strolling through the city, we found this adorable bar, LOSTin, with a spectacular view over Lisboa. If you ever visit this city, you defintely have to spend some time here! You can find it at Rua D.Pedro V, 56, or check out their website (as soon as it’s online) here.
Behind every corner in Lisbon, there’s a piece of art. Whether it be graffiti, beautiful paintings or photos of the old inhabitants of the little street you’re exploring.

2. Minimalistic bookend that serves as a letter holder too. (source)
3. Lovely mugtail cups. Available here. (source)

One day of our stay in Lisbon, was spent at the Expo Park. In 1998, the world exposition was held in Lisbon, with the theme ‘The Oceans, a Heritage for the Future’. Nowadays you can walk through the park, take a look at the pavilion of Portugal by Alvaro Siza (pictured above, but if you take a look here, you might get abetter idea of how impressing this building is), the trainstation by Calatrava, enjoy the ‘vulcanic’ fountains and so on. We had a great time and there were lots of gorgeous things to see, so expect a picture-heavy post!
I was tagged by Marlous of the last days of spring to share my 10 favourite blogs. Take a look at her list here! So today I’m devoting my weekly ‘Things that make me smile’ post to 10 blogs I recently discovered or that I think just diserve a little more love.

I’ve already showed you streetviews of Lisbon, and the colorful ‘azulejos’ you find on almost every house. This time I’m showing you clear views on Lisbon’s facades. I’ve expressed my love for this city before, but I will again today! All the houses are so bright and colorful, and there are beautiful and funny details to be found at every house: pretty lanterns, bird cages next to the window with fake or real birds, colorful laundry drying outside the windows or beautiful plants bringing nature to the city.
