The Holy City of Fatima in Portugal

Fatima in Portugal was not in my travel itinerary, but I took a trip in the BlaBlaCar from Lisbon to Porto where the driver was using the site for the first time. He was a middle-aged boy with a family and said that he did this route several times a week because he worked in Lisbon and lived in Porto. However, he felt a lack of company and decided to test whether BlablaCar’s idea worked. As he saw my recommendations on the profile of BlaBlaCar decided to take a chance. Soon at the beginning of the trip he commented on the Sagres brewery that was national pride and showed us when we passed through it.20140911_194404

He also commented that tolls in Portugal were one of the most expensive in the world, but making the stretch inside the city greatly increased travel time.

He was very sympathetic and took pleasure in explaining about his country and the details of its culture. Then decided to stop in a city on the way to show a famous religious tourist spot, the city of Fatima.
