Rosana and her home are as lovely as described on this listing. I arrived and had some trouble with unlocking the door, so she immediately called on WhatsApp to explain how to get in. The whole place gets such great light and has nice touches that really compliment Rosana’s fun and curious personality. When I’d return in the evenings, Rosana and I always had a nice conversation about the day, Portuguese culture, and anything else top of mind. The flat is a bus ride away from the hub of things, which isn’t too bad except the buses do tend to run behind schedule and take longer than estimated on Citymapper. It was a little tricky to account for that, but honestly this is a problem with Lisbon transit and not Rosana’s flat. On the upside, her apartment is a short walk from the start of the no. 28 tram line, meaning you can get a nice seat on the tram and let it take you all the way to town. The other thing is that it is closer to Belem, so that trek to Pasteis de Belem is just a tad shorter!
