Insider Emmy Urban moved to Lisbon ten years ago and has never stopped exploring. She knows how to shop, avoid the crowds and where to find the best ice cream (at her her own Geladaria Chantilly)
Well well ! I moved 20 years ago... in a sabbatical leave. Lisbon was asleep in time. A very bohemian city that I used to love more. At this time, coming from a Parisian life, my family and friends were sure I will come back at the end of the summer. But no, I felt in love with all the slow life, the locals, the none expensive life, the crazy apartment I rented for nothing in Santos with 12 rooms and a view over the Tagus river. Impossible nowadays... I feel that the city is losing its authenticity. For this reason, I created www.luzeditions.com a genuine brand based on Portuguese crafts, you surely saw my products at Vida Portuguesa or Depozito !
And actually, last week-end I discovered the Gelataria Chantilly that is a great spot for great ice creams !! And the owner is lovely. Long life to Chantilly.
