Raul is an excellent host and has taken many extra steps to make his wonderful studio as hospitable as possible (e.g., welcoming beverage, sunblock, luggage weigh scale, etc.). He was also generous in sharing his views on which of the wonderful Porto sights and restaurants we should take in. The rooftop deck is truly exceptional and added to the delight factor. I have already started recommending Raul and his studio to my family and friends!
