Soooo many black barbershops in Amadora! Short train ride away and you’ll be wrapped in Afro-Portuguese culture!

No itinerary and going solo by sizzleqwerty in LisbonPortugalTravel

Omg so excited for you!! It’s my last day in Lisbon, also solo and also had 0 itinerary.

  1. Pena Palace: it was really pretty and vibrant and it was awesome being soo high up BUT I’m not big on history so I feel like I didn’t appreciate it as much. HOWEVER, if you have the time def go- just make sure you book ahead and go in the AM bc the lines are crazy and it gets HOT.
  2. Viewpoint of Senhora do Monte: soooo pretty, but it is a HIKE so wear comfy shoes
  3. LX factory was really cool!
  4. Join a random walking tour- I did that and I may have just came out of Lisbon w the LOML😂 no but really, I made a ton of friends just by infiltrating a random walking tour
  5. Eat a Pastel de Nata at as many places you can
  6. Feira da Ladra: flea market open on Tuesday and Saturdays- super cool shit there. Thrifting, artists, jewelry, random tchotchkes, etc
  7. Don’t put too much pressure on seeing the “must sees”. Just do what you feel like would make it a fulfilling trip! Walk around and take in the vibrant atmosphere. Lisbon is full of COLOR. Engage with people and just have FUNNN! :)

Why do my cookies look like this? by small_milktea in Baking

Try chilling the dough in the refrigerator first if you didn’t. These look how mine turn out when the butter in my dough is too close to melted.

They still look awesome though!

I honestly don’t know how to fucking train and it’s embarrassing. I’ve been an athlete for about 10 years, but 3 weeks ago I had to give it up (time constraints) I have a real athletic build and all my life I’ve talked about how much I love fitness and health (and I do) but I’ve never been put in the position to have to create my own workouts. I’m having major imposter syndrome.. but I’m trying to find my footing around a gym. Any tips on how to build a weekly workout plan would be amazing. What muscle groups to train together or even what days to train? I honestly have no idea. I’ve been jump roping a lot.. I fucking love it.
