  • So here’s a picture of a potato that escaped to the back of our cabinet and lived it’s best life.

    I’m thinking it went on it’s merry way during our vacation in the cold months, and by the time we got back the stink had dissipated (plus, we live in a loft so the smell would not be trapped in a room). Either way, we didn’t find it until months later and dried out.

    …looks like a little pirate ship, lol













  • Sold our house at the right time (Trump presidency #1), funded a year & a half in the EU with ‘no income’ (you need to show income plus have enough funds to show independence -and family send letters of assurance & their bank statements for support, plus private insurance, etc. & patience.

    Found an amazing town in 3.months and have been here for 7 years, restaurant opened 4 months before COVID lockdown, the landlord was amazing throughout the whole ordeal, didn’t charge the 3 months closure, we paid half rent for the 1st year and were able to repay it within a year). Neighbors were amazing (again) very supportive through the whole deal.

    This is when we found out we can do it just by ourselves…the kids then some casual employees PT during the high season. This year we had 2 neighbors kids work with us for their first ‘real job’.

    Great community, we work very hard but have some awesome quality of life (Mediterranean is 500m away) and more than anything got lucky.

    I wish others the same!
