Back in my twenties when I was a broke college student, there was a travel agency on the drag in Austin that went by STA Travel. They always ran specials of cheap international tickets that you could take advantage of until you were like 24 or something.

One semester I got in a car wreck and received a handsome insurance settlement for my broken bone and totaled car. You know what I did next, right? Roundtrip tickets to Lisbon, Portugal baby!! It didn’t make any sense to buy them — I always had work during semester breaks — but not this time.

There is a memory I have from that spring in Portugal. I was riding in a passenger train on my way to a small village named Sintra and being that it was a smoking car, you could open the windows. I remember the blur of blue, green, yellow citrus groves and that blast of warm, lemony-orange soaked air. To this day, I’ve never experienced anything like that. Obvs, it made an impression on me.
