The region of Sintra, 45 minutes from Lisbon, was gorgeous. I would've loved to spend more than just one day there, but time was running out.

Here's a photo showing part of the ruined ramparts of a Moorish castle at the top of a mountain.

One of the few contemporary artists I like - Antony Gormley!

This installation has dozens of human-sized figures made out of small lengths of metal welded together. Walking between them feels very odd. They're like ghosts.
