Hi all,

My partner and I are in Portugal for another three weeks (I’ve been here for a month learning Portuguese). We’re likely to move here in a couple of years. We’d love to meet someone local who’s already made the jump. We’re Oregonians, in our late 50s and very interested in Portuguese language, history and culture. We’re currently in tavira and will be in Lisbon for two weeks, then Coimbra and Porto. Thanks!

A few of you are planning to visit Coimbra. You're welcome to join the members of the FB group "Americans & Friends in Portugal" at their regular Coimbra meet-up. Confirm attendance by sending an email to host Bruno at [email protected]. Details of the event:
"Our popular Coimbra meet-up for March has members, guests and visitors to the area meeting at the Visconde Pastelaria on Saturday, March 30th. For 13€ per person, enjoy sharing stories and meeting new and known friends along with drinks ( sangria, wine, beer, water) and appetizers. Pastelaria Visconde is downtown near Santa Cruz church. Please indicate 'going' on this Event Post so host BRUNO AFONSO has a reliable headcount.
