Convenient booking of tickets through Portugal and Europe.

Some notes on having a Portuguese bank account:

- Almost impossible to open on your own if you’re from outside of Europe
- Took me months to open with a help pf lawyers

- Took months to arrive to my address abroad (can’t send to a Portuguese address unless you pay 15-20 EUR per mail)

- Blocks all transfers and operations in online bank until you sign a paper no one knows in any bank branch

- Processing this paper takes a couple of weeks to unlock transfers

- Contactless limit is 50 EUR a day and there is no indication of that anywhere

- Security makes it crazy complicated to get into online banking

- UI/UX in online banking and apps is years behind, if not a decade

- You can pay any bill, purchase, transfer money inside Portugal - all through Multibanco (an ATM)

В прямом и переносном смысле слова.
Пожары наблюдаються почти по всей стране, а особенно в районе Брага. Там температура превосходит 40 градусов.

Крупные пожары тушат 600 ПОЖАРНЫХ, 200 МАШИН И 2 САМОЛЕТА.

Да прибудит с нами сила❄️💦
