I've been wanting to change the structure of this newsletter and for that I need to step back...
Hola Reader! This week has been buuusy! From Friendsgiving to creating future experiences for you, there's been lots going on!

We got to have our meal right in the middle of vineyard, absolutely beautiful. * If you make a purchase through any affiliate links below, I may make a small commission at no...
Hola Reader! I cannot believe we're mid way through November with chestnuts roasting on open fires around Lisbon. This past weekend I checked out one of the Christmas markets around town and went to a Friendsgiving hosted by a friend. I'm not a big of the actual holiday but I love the food. * If you make a purchase through any affiliate links below, I may make a small commission at no additional cost to you.
