Køb bus- og sporvognsbilletter i den officielle app eller i kiosker før ombordstigning, chauffører sælger måske ikke kontantbilletter, og bøder er reelle.

Følte mig tryg ved at gå alene om natten, de lokale var høflige. Et par turistfælder ved hovedattraktionerne gjorde nogle måltider dyre.

Smuk arkitektur, nattelivet er roligt. Ikke en festby, men museer, gallerier og hyggelige barer var dejlige.

Madudvalget var mindre end jeg håbede, mange ens menuer. Elskede stadig rugbrødet, røget fisk og billige bagerier.
