Dear Reader,
If you’re reading this, you’re likely an adventurer.
Maybe you live to travel, or travel to live.
Maybe you’re ready to shake things up like we did, move abroad to Portugal (at least for two years), and start afresh.
Maybe you need some fresh inspiration to take life by the balls and really live!
This newsletter is dedicated to inspiring you to stay home take more adventures and laugh about mine.
In fact, my whole goal is for you to do things you didn’t think you could do.
Originally though, I just started this little Substack to tell our story.
I didn’t think it would grow like it did.
Now two years later, here we are, living in Portugal, having sold almost all of our possessions and traveled over 4,000 miles to get here with our dog Loki.
We’ve got most of our paperwork done, we’re “settling in” and now we’re ready for new adventures.
What’s next?
