Hola Reader! It's been 2 months now that I've moved to Lisbon and I'm loving the life I'm creating for myself here. I'm taking time to do hobbies I've been wanting to do for a while (dance), regularly have social meet ups whether it's brunches, co-working sessions or just random meet ups to do things like go out to eat, bowling, etc. This doesn't just happen overnight, but it's nice it's happening.
