Ok /int/, tell me about the mysterious city of porto. What is it like there? Is it any good? How are the people compared to the rest of portugal?
>>
>>68598696
It's okay. It's getting too big, and starting to show symptoms of it.

People in Lisbon think that Portugal is just Lisbon, people in Porto are starting to think that North Portugal is just Porto. Nowhere near at the same annoyance level, but still. At least they aren't as rude.

Great city. Great food and people.

What is the people like compared to the rest of Portugal? Actual Portuguese in the real seance of the word since we are the ones that "colonize" the rest of country after reconquista.

Oh pls, stop the "muh whiteness" meme, children are always lighter pigmented.
We get it you're not quarter-negroid Maghrebis and nobody who has half a clue about Yurop thinks that unless they're memeing, but even here I'd say (adult) light brown is most common hair and blue eyes are minority (compared to green and light brown), so I seriously doubt it's any higher that far South

Portuguese with north African ancestor's are all over the place, but properly labeled , as mostly will be named the following names : Moura, Mourao, Oliveira (not always true in this one),Coelho, amaro etc.

Not true, though. Since names only come by the father, you can have a 50% nigger without that name, and a 1% nigger with it.

Also, the new christians name is a meme. Up until the 50's, rural areas people didn't have surnames either, and they were the most christian of all.

Well, you waz romans n shiet.

But the name thing is a meme. It happened to everyone, not just the jews and niggers. I know a dude named "Porta" (not Portas) because his great-grandfather had a double door in his village house, and they needed a way to differentiate between different Manueis.

Up until the 30's or so people were called "do/da <name of parent>" as in Manuel do Rodrigo or something like that.

>>
>>68601206
Blondism exists naturally at a low frequency in Southern Europe. Blond Portuguese are a minority but they exist, and the fact that they're blond isn't necessarily indicative of any foreign ancestry. They would probably be average Portuguese, genotypically.
>>
>>68601206
The mutation still occurred. We have some Celtic and Germanic blood. We have thin faces with long noses and deep eyes (semitic blood helped too), as opposed to completely flat cheeks like the Anglos or Chinks.

It's just that we're further away from Finland (where it started,I think) for it to occur as often. I'd put it at 10% overall, but it's usually dirty blonds, not white hair.

Hazel eyes are a lot more common ~20%, and so are blues. At least, nobody bats an eye if you have blue eyes.
>>
>>68601206
I have a theory .
My gh is light brown, and mi daughter (pic posted above) in less degree also has it. And the family name of my gh is Braga were the suebi made they're capital so she is probably a legit descendant of a rape
>>

It's also not uncommon for people to be born blond and get dark hair by 10, like I did.

I also have ginger beard highlights and green eyes, and that's fairly common as well.

Yes, I am U106 myself (family is from Braga and Madeira). Nonetheless, my eyes are amber and my hair dark brown.

You have to remember that the Suebi constituted ~30,000-45,000 at a time when the population of Iberia was around 4 million. It is not possible that they would have left a significant genetic footprint and the genetic surveys of Portugal mostly confirm this.

Yes, it was quite expensive for me also even though I bought it on sale ($160 USD, including shipping).

>they never devolve into shitposting
Not completely true, but sure. I've seen a couple of nice digs/shitposting on non-Portugal threads by Portuguese, though.

We're genuinely pretty calm and civilised, oddly enough.

I feel like we also try to keep a good impression, since we're easy to get bunched up with Brazilian and/or Spanish stereotypes, which we're very different from, to be frank.

That and we like the attention, tbf. We often feel forgotten in the international stage that we try to imprint our stuff and make a good impression when we have the chance, which also ends up in the WE WUZ memes we keep posting/getting posted about.

At least that's what I think.

>>68602226
>1 litre bottle or more per day
That's about the par for the course for every old geezer around here.

There's even a meme food called "tired horse soup" that's wine, bread, honey and cinamon that old cunts eat in the morning to kick-start their dusty system and go to work on the field. It doesn't even taste good, desu. Not to mention putting liquor in their morning coffee and drinking one bottle of wine across lunch and dinner on any regular week day.

It's hard to explain. I started learning Portuguese on a whim, but then grew to love the culture. I can relate to your melancholy more than to the typical Southern European culture.

Well thanks.
Made me fell kinda happy.

Problem with Portugal is that we are dying in a way.

We have no culture left to young people. All Americanized.

Lisbon has become such a hot spot of African and Brazillian culture that is kinda disgusting.

Hip-Hop is the norm for kids these days.

We're too centralized honestly.

Coimbra, Porto, Braga, Guimarães. That's the real Portugal left.


Ever since I was treated as foreigner in Lisbon (they thought I was tourist from somewhere in Northern Europe) I've grown a dislike for Portugal unfortunately.

I kind of feel your pain. We're an Anglo country so we're even more Americanized than any European country, but we never really had our own identity. Maybe if you knew some locals in Lisbon you might be able to find the Portuguese heart of the city.

Auckland is the same here. Every big city becomes globalized and feels "less local"
>>

>drink Port
That's not even that Portuguese a habit. It was made to sell to the Brits. We usually just drink the local shizz, desu.

Saudade is a bit of a meme except in special occasions like Fado (proper Coimbra fado, not sissy Lisbon fado). We're just stoic most of the time, I'd say.

Bacalhau is true, but you need a mother/grandmother to cook it for you and teach you.

That's not to say we don't do either, but doing it all would be tryhard, and we don't usually like tryhards (see stoicism above).

I guess emigration is the Portuguese thing, which you could do whilst being in Portugal.
The real thing you have to do to be Portuguese is to solve problems on the fly, as slyly as you can.

>>68603869
Looks pretty good, but a couple pointers:
Don't use green beans.
Use a bit more cabbage.
Use Bay leaves if you have access to them.
Cook the rice separately and place it separately. Each fork scoop should bring the sauce and beans together with the rice.

Also, proper feijoada has the magical property of tasting even better the next day when re-heated, so you'll know when you've done it right. It must condense or precipitate something chemical or something. It's fucking magic.

>>68604226
It's also nice to have a pretty well defined quarantine. If only they didn't rule everything else and stole all the money, though.
>>
>>68604226
Yes they suffer from the same problems.

Honestly Portugal for me ends at Coimbra pretty much.


A- The people of Lisbon don't look like me, my friends, or my family.
B-Their culture seems so.. different, even if it's what sells to the rest of Europe.
C-They clearly have a different view of themselves that we do not have.
>>
>>68604263
Thanks for the pointers anon. I've heard about the "desenrascar" attitude.That's kind of similar to New Zealand culture.

I don't honestly think that desenrascanço is unique to us, but it is a requirement nontheless.

Stay strong, Kiwi. Portuguese food isn't too complex to make until you get into pastries.

Try Caldo Verde for a start, or maybe Migas (can you tell that it's kale season?). The big Portuguese dishes are fine, but are mostly celebratory and require some effort to cook, and you can't trust bacalhau that far away from us. Try simple stuff that we eat every day that isn't that showy but it's still delicious.

Good olive oil is a must, though.

Never even planned to move there, at best I'd like to visit it to prove your wines at a cheap price.

>tfw winegrowers in family
>tfw they have to sell the cheapest wines that are still officially "quality wine" for €0.40/litre
Kinda makes me feel conflicted. On the one hand sad they can't get more because the market is saturated and our reputation is still somewhat tainted by the Liebfraumlich scandal that went through a whole stretch of the 20th century, on the other hand happy for cheap booze! (I'll leave a €5 note, sometimes €10 if it's just been payday after pulling a 5 litre jug from the barrel)

It's beautiful, I've been there this september for 3 days and I loved everything about it, the morning fog made me fall in love with it.

I love Portugal and it's probably one of my absolute favorite nations, and Porto is the city I liked the most.

Our cities do look pretty good at night/fog if I may say so. Must be because most are on hillsides by rivers, which makes a very picturesque view with the yellow streetlamps fading away and reflecting in the Tejo/Douro/Mondego/Whatever rivers.

You have to go back.

>>68605731
Kek, I never see that street in the morning. That's basically where we all go for a drink late at night.

That and the serenata, which you may enjoy, when all the students go back home after the school year, and some of them say goodbye to the city for good:

You have a very Portuguese and Spanish-looking chin. I mean, you have both of them atop each other. Stop the grease, yank.
>>
>>68605845
yeah I saw that!

It was the day of uni opening I think, the lads with the cape were doing some initiation ritual thing to the guys with the red shirts, pretty cool.

Also we went to listen to Fado in a small place in the street going up the stairs to uni, it's 2sad4me usually to listen at home but live is great.
>>
>>68605957
also in the Church place near the city hall, but itwas full of tourist there.
>>
>>68605957
Yeah, it's the praxe.

The video I posted happens at the end of the year, and it's the last episode of that whole thing.

It's mostly just drunk pranking these days, but the serenata and the traditions by themselves are pretty neat.

>>68605997
Igreja da Santa Cruz? Our first king is buried there. I haven't visited it since I was a kid, though. I definitely should.

Yeah, live Coimbra fado is great. I usually prefer it when it comes from the students, though. Feels more unpolished and amateur but more sincere and raw.

Instrumental Fado is GOAT, though.
>>
>>68606066
I like the song you posted, wish we had something like that here.

But yeah Coimbra is very nice, I want to do my erasmus in Portugal, if I can't manage to go to Porto I'll try Coimbra definitely.

Coimbra is pretty nice 2bh, good luck on your erasmus

>>68606217
thanks m88

>>68606163
Both pretty good options.

Some degrees are better in Porto, but Coimbra is definitely the student town of Portugal, and has the biggest tradition surrounding it and the most foreign students. Whereas Porto is traditionally a fishing and commerce/trading city.

Either way you won't be disappointed. Have fun.

>>68606311
well I come from the sea and I lived away from it for a long time now so I want to go back to live in a seaside town for a while, plus I really loved the city so there's that. I do international relations (diplomacy stuff) so I don't know which one is actually better, I honestly don't mind it that much if it's not the best.
>>
>>68606456
>International Relations
Eh, it's about the same in both places, desu. I'm sure you'll enjoy Porto. It's not like it's more than 1 hour away, anyway.
>>
>>68606632
yeah true! train ride was super quick.
