You are at home and you want to go out.....well, look to the watch first and if it is before 24:00 just grab a bottle of wine and drink it at home. It will be cheaper, it will make you warm, and it will give you the necessairy time to go out. If you want to go to a pub or a club, you should never go before 24:00. You will  feel yourself crossing a city in the middle of a "Walking Dead" episode. Worst is the fact that you will start to drink faster at pubs, and around 01:00 you will feel tired and drunk. You will notice that around that moment everyone will be arriving to the club and you are already K.O, instead of being ready to be who you should be on that night.

You have this picture about our nice weather in your head? You came to Porto in the Summer and it was freaking awesomly hot? Yes it was, but during the winter, you get to feel the opposite, not because of the low temperatures but because of the humidity. Porto is one of the most humid cities in the world and it forces us to get really careful when we dress up during the winter. Even when you go inside of home, the cold follows you because the humidity get stucked in your bones, and you take a couple of minutes to get warm again. If you ask us how you can run away from this problem, we have to honestly point the finger to the ones who coincidently get a girlfriend/boyfriend always during the winter semester. Therefore, bring some nice jackets, and some warm clothes for the winter or otherwise you will have to spend money in the clothes shop. 

PS: Bring the most cosy and horrible Pijama to keep yourself warm at home. Foreigners wonder many times why all the portuuguese have very cosy pijamas......well, we know the humidity well, and we learned how a pijama can makes us much more cosy.
