Plan your Lisbon & the Algarve trip with Ligia

Jul 24

Born and raised in the Algarve, Ligia has lived in Lisbon for the last 20 years and traveled to over 75 countries. You’ll usually find her exploring, running her sustainable travel startup, or spending time with her dog, Alma.

“My friends always ask me for advice about restaurants. I swear they think I have a secret restaurant map in my head! I guess it makes sense, though. I worked at Zomato, a popular restaurant guide, where staying updated on the latest trends and hidden gems was part of the job. After all those years of scouting new spots, curating lists, and checking out what’s buzzing in the food scene, it’s become second nature for me to always be in the know. I’m also always on the lookout for the coolest indie, hipster parties, exhibitions, and swap markets—basically, anything off the beaten path. And as someone who’s passionate about sustainability and social impact, I especially love supporting local businesses and communities.”
