"Shopping in Lisbon: A Virtual Hunting and Gathering Expedition"

by Sarah Foss

One of the challenges of moving to a new city is finding the things you need and want. Shopping is organized differently in Europe and it can be frustrating! Sarah LOVES shops, and shopping. She has never met a store window she didn't want to look at or a shop she didn't want to go in. Join her on a virtual hunting and gathering expedition around Lisbon. She will plot out neighborhoods and shops for antiques, good second hand furniture, new furniture and design shops, vintage clothing, clothing boutiques, specialty food shops, and what she calls odds and ends.

Sarah Foss is known to her friends and acquaintances as the go-to resource for where to find anything and on getting a great deal! Sara retired to Lisbon from Southern California in the US with her husband, David, after a 26-year career as a court stenographer, during which she traveled the US working on asbestos/mesothelioma litigation.
