Meet Ashley and Jessica, two adventurous American ladies who have embarked on a unique journey of living in Lisbon with their families for a few months. Eager to immerse themselves in the local culture, they decided to take a cooking class to learn some typical Portuguese dishes.
As I listened to their story, I was captivated by their sense of adventure and willingness to step out of their comfort zones. It made me realize that there are so many ways to experience different cultures, even without leaving your own country.
Ashley and Jessica’s decision to live abroad for a short period of time allowed them to fully immerse themselves in the daily life of Lisbon. They had the opportunity to explore the city, interact with locals, and truly understand the Portuguese way of life. And what better way to connect with a culture than through its food?
The cooking class they attended was not only a chance to learn new recipes, but also a way to connect with the local community. We exchanged stories and tips, and created lasting memories. From preparing traditional dishes like Caldeira, the famous fish stew to indulging in pastéis de nata, they discovered the rich flavors and culinary traditions of Portugal.
Listening to Ashley and Jessica’s experiences made me realize that exploring new cultures doesn’t always require a passport. It can be as simply living in a caravan and go around your own country.
