One of the most beautiful concert halls I’ve ever seen and a must visit when in Barcelona 😍

Postcards from my trip to the Douro Region with , the perfect setting to celebrate the launch of their new Iberian Edition Redbreast Tawny Port Cask Edition, and its connection with the Quintas and winemakers in the Douro Valley. 🧡

This Edition is finished in Tawny Port casks for a number of years after a maturation process that helps to achieve its rich and chocolaty notes with a glimpse of fresh plums, dried figs with a lingering finish of tawny seasoned oak.

Hello 🫶 I’ve never done anything like this, so here are 15 things about me:

6. I lived in London for 7 years
7. I met Rafael when we were 15 (we were in the same class), we started dating 9 years later and got engaged 4 years ago, and no, we don’t have a date for the wedding yet 😅
8. We’re now based in Lisbon and we rescued the cutest pup named Poppy almost 3 years ago - I love her so much I can’t even handle it.
9. I divide my time between Lisbon and London, and I’m lucky I’m able to travel a lot for work
10. I’m a social media manager and content creator, and co-founder and director of
11. My comfort food is mashed potatoes and pasta is a close second.
12. I prefer savoury food rather than sweets.

15. My dream destinations are Japan and Iceland, but my travel bucket list is loooong!

I was in awe as I stepped inside in Cappadocia 🤩 The vibrant colours and intricate designs of the handmade Turkish carpets were simply stunning. I still regret not bringing one home with me but one more reason to go back to this magical place.

10 Things to do in Cappadocia:

- Visit in Göreme for authentic handmade carpets and try on traditional dresses
- Visit the Kaymakli Underground City, with multiple floors down, carved tunnels and rooms, and that was once populated by thousands of people hiding from the enemy. Currently, only a fraction of this large underground city is open to the public. (Do not recommend if you feel uneasy in tight spaces).
- Visit Uçhisar Kalesi (Castle), a metres-high rock formation with numerous rooms and passageways which served as residential areas and are now blocked. You can visit the Castle and enjoy the beautiful views.
- Stop by Güray Pottery Museum for a pottery workshop and some shopping of authentic and handmade ceramics.
- If you fancy doing a photoshoot with a vintage car with fairy chimneys in the background, and are your guys.
- Enjoy the beautiful natural rock formations at Göreme National Park.
- Eat the most delicious local food at . Other places to eat: , , Ziggy Café and Restaurant in Ürgüp and . If you fancy some wine, stop by , for a local wine tasting.
- Visit Göreme Open Air Museum - this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a valley with rock-carved churches with beautiful frescoes and home to monks.
- Visit Pasabag Valley, a beautiful place to see Fairy Chimneys. Fairy Chimneys or Hoodoos, are tall rock formations formed by erosion.
- And finally, you must go on a Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Ride. You must be prepared for an early start but it’s so worth it! I will never forget this magical experience! ✨

In love with the unique gingerbread house that created at this year! ✨ If you are in town and love fashion, make sure to check the Dior Café and the Fabulous World of Dior exhibition - it’s free to enter, you just have to book a ticket on their website or check in person if you can join a group if there are any no-shows (this is what I did 😉)!
