Awsome opportunity

Studying tourism at University College Birmingham give me many wonderful opportunities. One of them was a trip to Portugal.

To be honest, Portugal was not one of these countries which I really want to visit, of course, I was very happy about that trip but I thought it will be Spain. But is always like this - when I am not 100 % sure about something and not so excited about something I always have a fantastic time. So was this time! I could not ask for a better journey.

Secondly, the peacocks which free roam around the zoo.

The vegetation and colorful castle looked then nice. The center of Sintra looks amazing, I have found many lovely shops, pubs, and cafes.
