Podcast: Aveiro, Portugal

Aveiro is called the Venice of Portugal, but that might be unfair to Aveiro. The city has so much to offer besides just being compared to the Italian city. Yes, there are canals and cool boats, but there’s also great food like a local pastry and a delicious treat named after pig innards (yes, really). Local guide Rossana Freitas shares her expertise on this interesting city. [Ep 306]
