This week is moving week and I’m surrounded by boxes and chaos. So what better time to sit down and write, right?

(That was a joke.) I’m keeping this one short.

When I began writing in this space more than a year ago, most of my readers were friends. But this small universe has expanded to encompass so many of you who don’t know me in real life, and you’ve joined at different stages along our journey to Portugal.

Also, after my last post about Oliveira do Paraiso, several of you asked what we were planning to do with the “city house” in Setúbal. And it got me thinking that you might have more questions. So now’s your chance!

Write a comment below and let me know what you’re curious about. I’ll collect questions for a week or so and then circle back with answers—and a move update.

Leave a comment

As always, thank you so much for reading. I’ll see you soon—até logo!
