Every year, Erasmus students in Portugal receive a Survival Guide for free from the Erasmus Student Network Portugal ONG.
In 2015, I was put in charge of redesigning the whole guide in Adobe InDesign, including the cover, maps, and all images you can see below (except the logo and pictures). The idea was to make it more in line with the international Erasmus Student Network design branding, while also making it personal to the national level.
Below you'll be able to read it fully.
The book was divided into 4 chapters - Welcome to Portugal, The Erasmus Student Network, Surviving in Portugal and Discovering Portugal with ESN.
The fourth chapter has a map of the whole country, which was made from scratch using Adobe Illustrator and includes the main national roads, railways, UNESCO heritage sites, national parks, and where ESN sections are distributed throughout the country - the labels help you navigate the map.
Each region then has all the information needed on where the ESN sections are located and how to contact them directly, rivers, railways, airports, national parks, UNESCO heritage sites, harbours, and mountains. These maps were also made using Adobe Illustrator.
