The sticky notes makes sense. Good going, Neesy. However, again, you need a facilitator. Take notes and you can be this person. Set up a new business for expats in Portugal. In fact you can move all over Europe and do the same thing. You will be rewarded on earth and in heaven!
Love the sticky notes...this is the all-time best gift ever for learning new words. Now, pronouncing those words? Well, that's another matter for another day! As I read your stories I'm pulled back to 10 years ago when we arrived. Nearly the only Americans in Cascais, with no FB groups and nothing written in English, few options to translate from Portuguese, we had a lot to learn. I hope that when people read of your trials they feel less frustrated with their own and your successes teach them what to do.
Thanks Susan! Yes, we have so many more resources than you had 10 years ago. If you are still in the area we'd love to get together once the lockdown is lifted.
Thank goodness for sticky notes! What a great idea! We can hardly wait to come and visit....
I see a screen play in your future!
