  • A Lot Of Silent Hill 2 And A Few More Movies

    A Lot Of Silent Hill 2 And A Few More Movies

    Slow dread, unnerving suspense, paranoia, unexpected startles, and gory demises made up a large part of our October. During the last week of the month we spent many hours beating the video game Silent Hill 2 (Remake) and saw a handful of horror films that were surprisingly high quality. If you want to emulate our…

  • Horror Filled October

    Horror Filled October

    Andrew allowed me to start my scary movie viewing a few days early. Since we both got minor colds during the last days of September, we had even more time to settle into our excessively dark cinema room with cozy blankets and get sketched out. I decided to publish our list a week early in…

  • Penha Mountain Rolling Cart Race

    Penha Mountain Rolling Cart Race

    Mount Penha is visible from our house and is a treasure that deserves its own post where we can talk about the area’s majesty. To frame today’s story just remember that we can normally hike to the sanctuary at the peak in under an hour (leaving from our front door) and the direct route takes…

  • The Tour And Tiny Bricks

    The Tour And Tiny Bricks

    I hadn’t given much thought to the Tour de France prior to moving to Europe, but after catching snippets in several Olhão bars and cafes back in 2022, my curiosity was piqued. I started with the Netflix show Tour de France: Unchained (I highly recommend it), and was shocked at how nuanced and complicated this…

  • 2024 Holiday Films And Shows

    We took a break from blogging for a few hectic weeks around Christmas and New Year’s, but are back to share how we spent some of our holiday season. Regular readers may remember that December is my month to dominate the watchlist with romantic comedies and other holiday schlock, helping me recover from Michelle’s horror…

  • Olhão: We’ll Miss…

    Olhão: We’ll Miss…

    We’ve talked a lot about why we decided to move to Guimarães but wanted to take time to go over some of the counterarguments. We weighed each of these ten things (and more) as we made our decision. In no particular order here are ten of the things we know we will miss that won’t…

  • UEFA: 3 Ways

    UEFA: 3 Ways

    UEFA (Union of European Football Associations) is the European branch of FIFA that hosts a European Championship tournament every four years. This tournament is the second most popular in the world with only the FIFA World Cup ahead of it. Football (soccer for our readers in the United States) is extremely popular throughout Europe, but…

  • Random Adventures With Elsa

    Random Adventures With Elsa

    Have you found that the most memorable parts of a vacation are the surprises, unplanned excursions and serendipitous diversions that lead you to something unique? Sometimes unexpected themes emerge. We stumbled onto a few of these awesome adventures with cousin Elsa. All You Can Eat: We have never been huge patrons of all you can…

  • Lisbon: Tejo Bar, A Telecabine Ride, And Another Tuk Tuk?!

    Lisbon: Tejo Bar, A Telecabine Ride, And Another Tuk Tuk?!

    We have mentioned traveling to Lisbon in multiple posts but haven’t really dedicated a full write up to Portugal’s capital so far. The sun was setting on Elsa’s visit and the three of us made our way into the city. In order to hit the highlights we decided on a comprehensive Tuk Tuk tour as…

  • Festival Med 2024

    Festival Med 2024

    We LOVED our time at Festival Med in 2023. This year our full time guest was my cousin Elsa, but we also enjoyed a day with Jorge and his friend from Lithuania, and a day with Karen. The festival itself, for the first time, had a featured country – Morocco – and every aspect of…
