I don’t miss the staircase next to that Eiffel bridge though, that was brutal. 2 years on and my body still remembers the exhaustion.

Ha yes, I’ve also been to Lisbon, I did the Lisbon ½ marathon, they ran out of water at the water stations, I’ll never forget that run!

I agree! :D I don’t want to be overly negative, there were some lovely places in Lisbon. We stayed in Picoas, a beautiful area. A visit to Belem was also very nice, a lovely (but seemingly affluent) neighborhood. Well worth the trip - for anyone reading and feeling down on Lisbon after reading this thread :)
