Curated Lisbon Experiences

Connecting visitors with authentic local stories

About this Collection

I've spent the past year consulting in experience design for the global relaunch of Airbnb Experiences, discovering the most authentic local stories Lisbon has to offer.

Now rebranded as "Airbnb Originals" this curated collection showcases my local partners - passionate hosts who want to share their crafts, traditions, and neighborhoods with visitors who appreciate authenticity over tourist traps.

Each experience has been personally vetted, and I work closely with this hosts to ensure they can deliver magical moments that become the best travel stories.
