By the time we reached the islands, we were drenched from the seawater that splashed us all along the way.

» Lisbon's hills are no joke. The city is built on seven of them, and a vigorous uphill stroll often sees you rounding a corner only to be faced with another, steeper climb.

» It's time for that essential caffeine hit you need. Drop by Starbucks stores nationwide to try out new coffee beverages introduced this autumn with the bold espresso and silky milk foam in Flat White, or try cold brew coffee with milk foam and Cascara syrup in Cascara Cold Foam Cold Brew. If you're a fan of both chocolate and coffee, the Duo Cocoa Mocha, which blends dark and white chocolate with a smooth espresso shot, just can't be missed. Try pairing the drinks with the new line of healthy, sweet and savoury dishes, such as Nicoise salad, pumpkin muffin and more, for a hearty meal.
