Lisbon is really a beautiful city - very quaint with old world charm, lots of interesting unique culture with their Fado and melancholy, cultural influences from Brazil, Angola and Mocambique, accents leftover from the centuries of Moors occupation with small winding streets on the two city hills, close to the ocean, great cheap seafood, food in general is very wholesome and tasty, fun futbol culture, great cheap wine, and on and on...and Porto is arguably even more interesting and scenic.Lisbon: wouldn't know first hand, but I strongly suspect it's much nicer than some extremely low-cost European locations most U.S. Americans would not find too appealing. And, even for those of us who are far more adaptable than average or when saving most of a US salary + all living expenses. Paris: financial vacuum to live a good lifestyle!
