"Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow... Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possible can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something."

Kurt Vonnegut

The narrow streets of Porto, Portugal. This quiet area is just a few minutes walk from the crowded Ribeira do Porto waterfront. It's worth the effort.

Looking up at the ceiling of the Porto Photography Museum in Porto, Portugal. Housed in a 200-year-old former prison, it's definitely worth a visit for anyone interested in photography. Oh, and it's free!
