Casa do Penedo
Place
"An interesting house located in Fafe. "
Águeda

Santa Cruz (Torres Vedras)
Place
"One of my favourite beaches. The corner next to this big rock is often quiet and at sunset, when the tide is low, you can actually go under the rock"

Place
"One of the most popular destinations for surfing, Ericeira is a town by the coast that will be a perfect site for a day trip from Lisbon!"
