We are Lina (Lithuanian) and Pedro (Portuguese), living between Munich, Germany and Porto, Portugal. We love travelling, trekking and getting to know other cultures more deeply. We always organise our trips on our own and try to include some trekking. For some years now, we have always thought that we should share our experiences, but never got around to actually doing it.
In October 2017 we were visiting Ethiopia and Lina was affected by a serious disease. This blog was one of the ways we found at that time to help her move forward, keep her professionally engaged, and build websites. We also thought it could be useful to share our experiences with other people who love travelling.
Although our primary focus will be Portugal, you will find here many of our “escapes” to Europe and the World.
We would like to say upfront that all products, restaurants or services that we refer, are mentioned because they are good or not and no one paid us to say that. In some of our posts we use referral links. If you buy a product following that link we’ll eventually get a commission, but we were not paid to write the review.
You can read more about why this blog is called Sunny Shiny Portugal in this post.
