#Ericeira is one of #Portugal’s most beautiful coastal towns. Located about 45 minutes from #Lisbon, this cliffside town combines traditional fishing village charm with one of the best surf scenes in Europe. 🏄🇵🇹

With a wife from northern Portugal, I find flying Liverpool-Porto return a pleasant travel experience.

Europe's worst airport?
I loathe Paris CDG, though some like it.
Munich can be an ordeal.
Bordeaux picks up votes for its spartan low-cost terminal.
Yet in our tens of millions, we judge the rewards at the end of the journey justify the airport experience.
