Lisbon by Tuk Tuk

The best tour in #Lisbon is hands down Eco Tuk Tours – http://ecotuktours.com/

Our adventure with Tiago was definitely a highlight of our time in Lisbon, as we learned far more in the two hours we toured the city with him than we had in our normal self-led exploration. He was not only knowledgeable of the city’s history but was also so gracious in showing us a bunch of spots that he loves to go with his friends.

We learned a lot about the #streetart that covers so many of Lisbon’s walls with famous artists such as Vihls, Obey, Shepard Fairey, and many many more. He showed us neighborhoods we wouldn’t have stumbled onto on our own like Bangladeshi Street and China Town.

But the most incredible part of the whole trip was seeing Tiago interact with the city. He grew up here along with his 12 brothers, and you can tell by the number of people he knew on the street just how much he loves and interacts with his city. We would be driving by and then a bus would pass, and he’d be honking and waving because he knew a passenger on the street. We would stop and chat with old ladies on the corner that he made friends with long ago. And he wasn’t shy to chat up strangers too. A new construction site had gone up and he started asking about what they were doing, only to find out it was actually archeologists because a Muslim burial site had been discovered during the build of a new hotel. His contagious smile and next level energy had Lou and I buzzing for the rest of the day.

Thank you Eco #TukTours and Tiago for such an incredible opportunity!

Much love,
Dana (& Lou)

Ps if you want to try his restaurant it is Carapau de Corrida (restaurantecarapaudecorrida.pt) but if you’re vegan make sure to call ahead. They have one vegetarian option every day and some days like the day we were there you get lucky and it happens to be vegan too 🙂

MUSIC
30 Day Free Trial for Epidemic Sound – http://share.epidemicsound.com/pl2WQ

Switching to Epidemic Sound – a royalty free music library – for all our videos has been such a gamechanger. Many of our most viewed videos on our channel ended up with copyright claims and no longer can make any ad revenue. This was actually a substantial part of our YouTube income stream and we can’t get those claims removed even though we received full authorization from every artist to use their songs. If you make Youtube videos this is an amazing way to no longer fret about whether or not you will get demonetized!!!
