Hi y’all. I’m back, and I’m officially returning to blogging.
It’s been a while since my last post, and honestly, life got very loud. Between everyday chaos, work, navigating visas, and my ADHD doing its thing, I didn’t fully realize how much time had passed since I last sat down to write. Somewhere along the way, blogging slipped to the bottom of the list. Not because I stopped loving it, but because life in Portugal kept happening fast and all at once.
That said, I’m really happy to be back. I’m feeling motivated, grounded, and ready to be more consistent again. The last several months have been full in the best and most exhausting ways, and I have a lot to catch you up on. I’ve genuinely missed writing, sharing stories, and using this space to document life abroad as it actually feels, not just the highlight reel.
A quick snapshot of the last eight months
- Lots of festivals around Tavira, throughout Portugal, and Spain
- Plenty of beach days!
- I published my second coloring book! Check out my first one here
- I finally started my TikTok and have been putting more energy there
- A few fun trips, including Lisbon, Sevilla, and Córdoba
- Work, work, and more work
- Visa delays because of course
- Lots of time spent with friends, both new and old
- More health updates and navigating the Portuguese health system
- Celebrated our third anniversary of living in Portugal
It’s been busy, sometimes overwhelming, but also really good. The kind of good that stretches you a little and reminds you why you chose this life in the first place.

Stay Tuned for More
Stay tuned, because I’ll be back soon with more blog posts, travel content, and honest updates about life in Portugal. Thanks for sticking around, and if you’re new here, welcome 💙
