In July, my husband Chad and I set out on our second motorcycle tour with 2RidePortugal — an unforgettable eight-day journey from Lisbon to Galicia and back along the Atlantic coast. From mountain roads and Roman ruins to fresh seafood and stunning coastal views, every day brought new discoveries and memories that will last a lifetime.

A Journey Through the Senses with 2RidePortugal – Part 2: Mountains, Colors, and Scents

In Part 2 of our journey with 2RidePortugal, the road rises into the mountains — and with it, a deeper connection to nature, freedom, and self. From the laughter-filled night in Viseu to the exhilarating dance of curves through vibrant landscapes, this leg of the trip speaks through scent, silence, and sweeping views. At the mountain peaks, where the world falls away and breath comes easier, we discover that happiness sometimes lives in the simplest moments — wind in your hair, stories around a table, and the scent of wild mountain air.
