ABOUT US

Who we are

Portugal in a Can is more than a tourist company and more than a group of people. It is a concept linked to the pride and passion that we have for our country, and our need to share the best of it: our friendships, our food, our drinks and the excellence of the way we connect with each other. This project was born of a desire, but also of a need. As people who also travel to other destinations, that are eager to try foods and drinks from the other cultures we visit, we realised that our so rich identity was often not fully appreciated by those who visit us. We are not just a historical legacy of culture, expansion and sporting results. We are people of spirit and soul and so diversified, that whoever visits us, does not have enough time to really know us. And what is the best way to do it? Sharing a table with us. Portugal in a Can is a project of friends who value our identity, but above all, the desire to share and make who visit us, one of us.

André

Backpacker and Food Lover
You know that sort of guy, that knows everyone, adventure’s himself through every nook and corner wherever he goes, and ends up finding special places and incredible people that you would never in a million years get there? That’s André. Even more, he is that smile and laugh that will make your somewhat cranky mood in pure enthusiasm. Favourite Food: Feijoada à Portuguesa Favourite Drink: A cold beer with friends

Sofia

The Party Warrior Princess
Sofia is a constant celebration of life, fierceness, softness, determination, compassion and drive. She's the glue that hold us all together and always on point and focused. There is no person more giving, more willing and better company to enjoy a meal, a party, a drink or just a silent moment in contemplation of something beautiful. An explosion of energy 100% ready to make you feel welcome. Favourite food: Chocolate! Chocolate! Chocolate! Favourite drink: Cold beer with a view

Nuno

Portuguese Cuisine Evangelist
Revolutionary at heart, pacifist at hand. Nuno believes the fight for acknowledgement of how amazing the Portuguese Cuisine is can only be fought through live tasting, at the everyday places, in the streets of our towns.
Favourite dish: Pork liver scallops with onions and white wine reduction sauce with boiled potatoes.
Favourite drink: Douro Red Wine warmed by the cheers of his friends.
