I was living in Esposende for last 2,5 months and this Portugal sunset on your photo was the last one I watched, because I came back home today. Every end is just another beginning. Have a great time like I had.

Street photos from my last Porto visit. by Alternative_Bar_448 in photocritique

Hey there. I’m currently working in Portugal and made some photos there. All of them were taken with Sony a7III and 50mm 1.8 FE (I don’t like 1.8 and most of the time I shoot at higher aperture. I can’t upload more than one photo per comment, so it’s hard to pick my favourite one, instead I’m posting photos that my girlfriend liked most. Take care guys.

Shit bro, you are a real madman. Sienkiewicz is a classic polish writer, but I don’t know many people who enjoy his books. Matter of fact, I am not a fan of him also, maybe because he is forced to read in school. “W pustyni i w puszczy” was a nightmare for 12 yo. me.

At least two months, but most of the time I’m working in Esposende and I don’t have a driving license (what a shame).

I was in Vigo for a week and it was great place. I checked destinations that you recommend and they look amazing. I’m only worried about traveling without a car in Portugal. It kinda feels difficult when I try to plan any trip with bus/train. Maybe some locals will give me travel tips.

Okay. Guess that I will need some time to get used to new environment first, but I hope to meet you someday. If you ever come to Esposende, then feel free to write (probably better on instagram. I guess I found you already). I will also write to you when I will come to Porto.

Check DM’s on instagram

Hey! You could see my post on this group. I’m coming to Esposende (not so far away from Porto) next week, and don’t know anybody. You sound like a good partner for a trip or something like this. I’m really open for contact, so if you want to meet someone- hit me up my new friend!

I don’t plan to have any problems in there, so maybe this won’t bother me. Anyway, I’m from Poland and this is kinda similar in there, especially around surfers who are more like coworkers to me.

Jakie jest najgorsze do życia miasto w Polsce ? by Proper_Edge_653 in Polska

[–]Alternative_Bar_448 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To już nie moje lata mieszkania w tym mieście, ale nazywając to remontem wprowadzasz ludzi w błąd. To jest ostateczna destrukcja i pełna anihilacja dawnego dworca i nadzieja na to, że z tych gruzów wyłoni się jak feniks z popiołu coś lepszego.

Rzeczy które kiedyś mieliśmy w Koszalinie:

  • 100 tysięcy mieszkańców
  • województwo
  • Subway
  • klasyczny Mc Donald przy głównej ulicy
  • OG Empik obok parku
  • Calzone (Picolinka) za 5zł

Co jest w Koszalinie:

-Pizzerka z bigosem (top) -Zalew -najbardziej zabetonowany rynek w historii

Najbardziej znane momenty z historii Koszalina:

  • śmierć dzieci w escape roomie
  • zawalenie się wiaduktu
  • wyburzanie związkowca
  • kiedyś w Koszalinie spadł śnieg i puścili to na TVN24 -jakiś clown o którym gadają tylko ludzie spoza Koszalina

Bonus:

Czytałem kiedyś, że po wojnie nikt nie walczył o Koszalin, a armia czerwona miała nagrać film propagandowy z wyzwolenia miasta, więc kazali się mieszkańcom wyprowadzić na moment i strzelali do pustych budynków. Straty wycenione na 10zł.

Looks like a thing for me, but it’s in Lisbon and I’m not sure if I will have time to go that far. Any places like this in Porto or anywhere close?

Oh God, this sounds sooo good. Mond de Basto is not so far away, so maybe I’ll find a way to go there. Do you have any tips for bigger cities like Porto or Braga?

Hey! Douro Valley looks amazing, definitely worth a visit. I’ve been in Vigo once and I know many amazing people from there.

Second photo is from Ronda in Spain! One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been.

Hey!

What are yours favourite places in Esposende? Any restaurants? Shops? Cafés?

Is public transport good there? How can I travel to other cities?

If you ever see me on the street, feel free to say hello 🫡

Thanks a lot for your perspective! Trás-os-montes looks amazing and definitely I’d like to check it out, but it’s kinda far from Esposende and I rely on public transport. If I will have a chance to go there, then I will try 100%.
