In reply to Cheryl. Thank you for your kind words Cheryl. It must be tough being far away from your grandchildren but you will certainly gain new experiences!

I follow your website regularly and love it! I so admire your sense of adventure and openness to new experiences. Our daughter and son-in-law and family moved to Belgium last year. Though I sorely miss them and my two young grandchildren, I loved visiting Belgium last month. So happy that you found your next new home!

In reply to Tina. We are from the Netherlands which is part of the EU, as is Portugal, so we are allowed to live here as part of the european union. There is still lots of paperwork for residency, tax status etc., but that's just a matter of paperwork. I bought this dress on a previous trip in Croatia in an independent store so it's not available online.

In reply to NATALIE K. I'm sorry to hear you're more homebound. It's one reason I like to travel more now. We never know what our limitations are in the future.

We spent 2 weeks in Portugal 24 years ago. We loved it. We started out in Lisbon and then rented a car and drove in a northward circle ending up back in the south. It is a lovely country and I can imagine living there.
