Today was an epic one! Some of our students took on the first optional excursion: coasteering. From scrambling up seaside cliffs to cliff jumping into the ocean, ziplining across waves, and clinging to the coast’s edge, it was an unforgettable thrill. It was an adrenaline rush from start to finish, and the students faced every challenge with courage and teamwork. It was incredible to watch! Afterward, we soaked up the sun with lunch and some well-earned relaxation at the beach in Sesimbra. The views were straight out of a postcard.

Back in Lisbon, the students jumped into their first day of classes. Our English students delivered their Portugal Icon presentations in iconic spots across the city, while the History class had a scenic outdoor lesson followed by a traditional Portuguese taste test. 

We wrapped up the day with a group dinner to share stories and laughs before heading out to enjoy the energy of downtown Lisbon. We are looking forward to our last day in Lisbon tomorrow before heading to Porto.
