Very interesting! I visited Lisbon a month ago for a couple of days (yes I know I was part of the problem!) and I’ve rarely seen a city more overrun by tourists … definitely worse than Barcelona and probably on a par with Venice.
It didn’t feel like a city where normal people live and work (and we went quite far afield). Pretty sorry to see it in this state I hope they manage to sort it out.
