What an Instagram Reels transcript looks like

Three things I wish I knew before my first trip to Lisbon.
- 00:03
One, the hills are steep, so bring comfortable shoes.
- 00:06
Two, go to the viewpoints at sunset, not at noon.
- 00:09
Three, the best pastries are in tiny neighborhood bakeries, not the famous one with the long line.
- 00:15
Save this for your trip.
