About this title

About the Author:

Kerry Christiani : This is the third edition of the Pocket Lisbon guide Kerry has authored and the city never ceases to amaze her, with its easygoing locals, pure Atlantic light, hilltop miradouros and vibrant nightlife and arts scenes. For this edition, she clicked into the groove of Alfama's fado bars, ate fresh seafood at nearby beaches (in autumn), hung out with designers, and found a raft of new boutiques, bars, restaurants and galleries that are making the Portuguese capital one of Europe's most exciting. Kerry studied Portuguese translation as part of her MA at the University of Westminster before going on to author numerous guidebooks, including around a dozen Lonely Planet titles.
