JERFFSON SOUSA
Jerffson Sousa has lived in Lisbon for the past 4 years, where he works for a Portuguese bank. When he's not in the office, he enjoys experiencing the vibrant city and all it has to offer.
A coastal capital city with a ton of character, these days Lisbon is known for being a creative hub, popular with artists and startups alike. Its historic, intricately cobbled streets are now home to cutting edge galleries, excellent nightlife, and inventive and experimental restaurants.
So, it's probably no surprise that many of Jerffson's suggestions focus on food and drink. Here are some of his favourite places in the city...
