Thank you so much Kelsey! This is just step one of what I envision will be "the big move"...I'll need to tackle a few pesky legalities before I can make it permanent (!)...but am loving it here so far. Yay!

Hi Anne, lovely news letter. I’m pleased you’ve got your wings! Lisbon looks beautiful! Qi Gong, tea and cake sound very pleasant. Enjoy the new life.

Thanks Anne! I can't get too used to the cake bit, but aside from that, it's all good!

No, don't forfeit the cake bit...pasteis de nata (custard tarts) are so yummy, LOL! Seriously...I am delighted to see this lovely place you've chosen to sojourn. Your blog is a really beautiful way to stay in touch with friends. Really impressive!

Sounds like your new adventure is a well deserved journey! You are incredibly brave, I’d love to do what you are doing. Winter will soon be here, enjoy the beautiful sunny days. Maybe a new collaboration for a shop, if you so desire 😊. Take care and have fun!!

Thank you Laura! The weather in Lisbon has been flawlessly beautiful...it's definitely warm (sometimes a little too warm) but there's always a lovely cool breeze off the river...and the constant sunshine is very good for the soul! Not sure about shop collaborations...I think I may just continue to bop in and out in a more observatory capacity! Best!

Thanks Caitlin! How exciting that you'll be moving here...congrats! I feel that I've barely scratched the surface of what's here but I'm always on the lookout for places that are off the beaten path...and that have their own unique non-cookie-cutter essence.
