Portugal

Lisbon is one of the most atmospheric cities in Europe, but this small, highly historic country isn't done yet. There's the balmy resort region of Algarve, the green north, home of Port wine; and Atlantic islands Madeira and the Azores; and more.

Imagine you are visiting the Arrabida Mountain in a electric moto or take a ride on a Electric Skateboard. In Setúbal it is possible through BiGPlanet , a company with two years located in the center of the city.

These electric skateboards work with a remote control assisted by an integrated braking system. With a word design and electric propulsion, take 3-4 hours to charge the battery (depending of the model).

There is four different products, that have a different range and speed, which can vary from 13 km to 25 km autonomy and from 15 km/h at 30 kms/h in terms of speed. You can have a different afternoon, during your vacations.

I know I'm in good company here, cauz I too adore Portugal! My husband and I lead a photo tour there last June and will go again in October--this time to explore the Douro Valley and the north. Can't wait!

Portugal has the friendliest people, and some of the most amazing architecture. I also enjoyed seeing some of the important cultural events--like the candellit procession at Fatima, the Agricutural Festival in Santarem and the bullfighting and courageous forcados! I recently posted a couple photo essays on both the bullfighting and Portuguese art and architecture on our blog UniqueTravelPhoto.com. I think Tomar's Convento de Cristo was my favorite architectural gem. What's yours?
