Explore Portugal with me!


I'm about to embark on another grand adventure- a new life in Portugal: exploring the cities and countryside; the wine and food; the language (and the challenges in learning it at this stage of life); and its history and culture. Come on this journey with me!  I'll try to post at least once a week (and feel free to call me out if I fall behind). 

I leave Portland  on March 14 and arrive in Lisbon on the Ides of March. (Is this an omen?) My temporary abode is in Nazare, north of Lisbon on the coast of the Atlantic. Nazare is one of the surfing capitals of the world, and boasts the highest wave ever surfed: a monster that topped out at 80 feet.  

From there, I will apartment hunt: find a sunny, furnished, 2 bedroom apartment with access to excellent public transportation, close to but not right on the beach, and somewhere between Lisbon and Porto. 

If you'd like to join me on the journey, fill out the contact form below and I will put you on the list.

Be safe, all, and you will hear from me again soon,

Maxine
