Hi! My name is Marga!

I was born in the Netherlands but started exploring the world from a very young age! I’ve travelled to over 65 countries and lived in 6!

My last move was to Portugal, where I settled down in Lisbon. I left a career as a flight attendant and later in tech to follow my dreams as a travel writer and photographer. 

I hope to inspire you with Portugal Travel Tips as I discover my new home country. And maybe we will even meet during a photo session in Lisbon. I will happily tell you even more about this amazing country!
