A guide to Lisbon - exceptional experiences, passionate authors, a new approach to the art of travelling.


Drink a cocktail that takes you back in time, slip into a pocket-sized bookstore, unlock the secrets of bacalhau, run with the clouds, make a stopover

in the tropics, track down the restaurant whose address we won’t tell you, clink glasses with an old-timer, awaken your inner ceramics-maker,

scuffle with a spider crab, infiltrate the secret hide-away of the city’s fado singers, bite into an elephant-ear cookie made to linger in your memory forever …

Soul of Lisbon is written by Lauriane Gepner, journalist and traveller, and Fany Péchiodat, founder of My Little Paris, the influential newsletter-cum-lifestyle brand.


You've seen Castelo de Sao Jorge, wandered through the medieval streets and ridden a tram, what next? If we really want to experience the true essence of Lisbon today, where do we go?
