Adjusting to living in Portugal with an analogy of a washing machine

Posted on 2 April 20232 April 2023 by Marc

Oh my, oh my, oh my.  Another two weeks have passed and I’m only just getting around to writing a blog.  Whoops.  But hey, it’s not a big deal.  The new blog is here now. Previously, and mainly when in employment, I would’ve beaten myself up for missing deadlines and not being 100% professional.  I…

Happy New Year.  For me, 2022 was an instrumental year as I moved to Portugal.  I’ve now been living in Portugal for five months and the time has flown by.  I am sure 2023 will be a mixture of excitement and challenge.  Hopefully in equal measure. The festive period has been quiet for me.  I’m…
