We arrived a week ago, and stayed at a hotel that we were well acquainted with from a previous trip. After a few nights of festivals, pride marches, and revelry at the night clubs, we arrived today at our apartment.

Things have been progressing well for the move, as well as personal development and growth. I have Ironed out the plans for a project I wish to undertake for my channel as well as potentially a literary endeavor.

We just put in a bid on an apartment in our dream neighborhood. It’s close to restaurants, markets, a beautiful park, and there’s a cemetery next door. Looks like I’m the creepy Bruxo who lives next to a cemetery.

Had dinner with a good friend, and set our realtor to investigate 3 properties in 2 of our favorite neighborhoods. I can scarcely believe that we will be starting a new life in 3 weeks.

I’m trying to envision my life abroad. I’ve decided that I’m going to hit the reset button. I’m going to pursue things that enrich me as a person. I’ve dabbled with the notion of fostering a gay pagan community in Lisboa. Learning leatherwork and selling my wares when I’m proficient.

Our Visa’s came today! In 30 days we move to Portugal!

Packing and downsizing. Still no sign of our Visa’s.

We have submitted our Visa Applications. The rejection rate at this point of the process is extremely low. We will know for certain in the next 60 days.

Yup! You found me. More to come!
