Lisbon: A Meeting of Rivers, Roads and Roots – A Story by Marius Festakar


Sailing into Lisbon felt like stepping into a parallel chapter of Goa's story. As Marius Festakar wanders through Lisbon’s Alfama, rides Tram 28, and visits St. Anthony’s Church, he draws deep connections between the Portuguese capital and his homeland of Goa. This is more than travel — it’s a reflection on heritage, identity, and the living link between two vibrant cultures.
