Storytelling in Tourism: https://academiadigital.turismodeportugal.pt/index.php?option=com_training&task=show&id=7393&Itemid=33 Building your nest somewhere involves diving into the local culture, overeating because you want to taste everything, turning the city upside down out of mere curiosity, struggling to learn the language, meeting up with fellow city dwellers until late.

Ten years ago today.

On 5 October 2016, thousands of people gathered on Lisbon’s riverfront for the opening of MAAT, the Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology.

And I died in front of it.

This photograph, taken by from a boat on the Tagus, became part of To Die For Portugal. For the book, I quite literally dropped dead all over Portugal, in landscapes, historic places and extraordinary spots that made me stop in my tracks: places of beauty, rarity, memory, imagination, or simply places with that strange power to connect people.

MAAT was one of them.

It arrived in Lisbon with the ambition to be much more than a new building, much more than a museum, much more than another architectural icon on the waterfront. It wanted to challenge Portugal’s cultural landscape. It felt bold, sparkling and vital.

And just look at that crowd. Lisbon clearly wanted to know what had landed on its riverfront.

Ten years later, MAAT is part of the city.

✨Happy 10th birthday, MAAT ✨

Lisbon has a fantastic new address: brings together a well-curated selection of contemporary Mexican art, fashion, jewellery and objects.

Not Mexican craft frozen in tradition, but a new generation of designers and artisans taking centuries-old techniques, materials and knowledge and breaking all the rules.

Think traditional Oaxacan embroidery turned into contemporary fashion, Taxco silver paired with wool, and : a limited-edition clothing line made from ancient native Mexican cotton varieties that had all but disappeared under colonialism. Of the original fourteen varieties, five have now been brought back into cultivation. Heritage not as nostalgia, but quite literally grown back into existence.

Also to discover: handmade objects, art, jewellery and pieces by makers you’re unlikely to find anywhere else in Portugal.

And the opening was fuelled by **es : lightly sparkling Alentejo w**es infused with botanicals, with a wonderfully wild visual identity by ✨

Two artists went to Sintra and got a little carried away. Thankfully, they brought the results to HUM Gallery in Lisbon.

I got a sneak peek at Mountain of the Moon, featuring paintings by Patrick van Riemsdijk and photographs by Rogier Houwen. Layers you’ll want to touch, colours you’ll swear can’t be real. A must-see✨

Opening tonight, 3 October, 6–10 pm.
On view until 15 November 2026, by appointment after the opening.

Estrada Militar 38 · Atelier 33, Camarate, Lisboa

✨Tonight’s Mozart starts with a little tuning ✨

This beautiful piano from 1780 is being tuned for tonight’s concert with Artur Pizarro, in the magnificent church of São Pedro de Alcântara in Lisbon.

Pizarro is performing all of Mozart’s piano sonatas over a series of Saturday recitals.

Tonight at 7 pm. More recitals on 10, 17 and 24 October.

Another exhausting day walking my Dutch Lisboneye friends through Lisbon. Hydration is key.

Diplomacy, but make it dance: the Belgian Embassy brought the Belgians in Lisbon together at CCB today for Jan Martens’ The Dog Days Are Over 2.0. For seventy minutes, eight phenomenal dancers flirted with all limits. Our knees hurt just watching them, but we did manage to get up for the richly deserved standing ovation. What a performance ✨

An Odyssey.

Ramona Galardi’s family fled Karachi for Mumbai after Partition and later scattered across the world. Born in Mumbai, raised in London, she went on to live in Paris, Singapore, Provence and now Lisbon.

Her work carries that lifelong journey: memories, places, cultures and the recurring questions Who am I? Where do I belong?

An odyssey that, in one way or another, speaks to us all.

An Odyssey runs until 21 September at Sá da Costa. Go for the exhibition, stay to wander through one of Lisbon’s most wonderful bookshops, where new books, old editions and unexpected treasures are piled into a place that feels like a discovery in itself.
