When did i start?
One year ago i started to show around Lisbon to the tourists from all over the world that come to this amazing city during the whole year!
It has been an amazing experience! So far i met people from India, Jordan, Canada, Sri Lanka, Iran, Saudi Arabia, USA, Sweden, Turkey, New Zeeland, Philippines, Israel, Italy, Luxembourg, Albania, Germany, UK, Romenia...
I am a proudly portuguese so i teach a lot about Portugal and i try to explain the essence of being a portuguese. I also learn a lot and i have lots of fun. Sometimes i even receive gifts (how cool is this?)
This really broaden my horizons! The more people i know the more i understand the world!
Life is about the people you meet along the way!

"The moment you meet Filipa, is the moment you become friends with her! As a first timer in Lisbon, I couldn't have enjoyed it more, and if wasn't for Filipa, I wouldn't have enjoyed it at all! Filipa is the perfect companion for you in Lisbon, she knows the hidden spots, history, transportation.. etc. very well informed, with a beautiful sense of humor, sociable, open and exposed to all cultures. And most importantly, Filipa does it with pleasure! she enjoys doing as it is a passion of hers. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!" - Mohd from Jordan
