Nightlife Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I ate Cobra whilst on my travels.

And I found Lisbon a very attractive place in terms of 'livability'! Sure, portuguese is easy enough for me to read, and we can understand Brasilians OK, but I found your accents (and the speed in which you talked) much more difficult...

Oh glad that you liked LOL one of my problems sometimes to understand the Spanish is the speed at which they speak I always have the feeling that they speak so fast and they think the same of us it's all a matter of habit, with practice we go there.
