Love this list, especially seeing people here I’ve got to know through Substack - including one who lives just down the road (river!) to me! You’ve given me lots more ‘friends’ to discover, too. And if you want a no.25 on your list, feel free to peak at my ‘Borboleta Letters’ 😉
Ah, thank you! It’s such a great thing you’re doing. There’s such an interesting community of writers here in Portugal but the project more widely will prove fascinating, I’m sure 😊
What a fantastic list. Honored to be listed with this group. I’ve learned so much from all of these writers and really appreciate the stories they share.
Hi Nancy — yes this was definitely an oversight! We’ll be sure to add you to the database so you’re included in future roundups. That said, we tend to feature writers we’ve interacted with through @ALL ABROAD, our Substack space for writers living across borders — and I don’t think we’ve seen you there yet! We'd love for you to join us — it’s the best way to stay on our radar and be part of a collaborative, human-powered community: https://substack.com/chat/5061453
Oh wow, I was perusing the list and adding people that were new to me and then...there was my name at the bottom. Kaila, thank you for including me in this Portugal list. ❤️
I was reading your post and was pleasantly surprised to see my name on it! Thanks for including me in your list. An FYI, we live in the Cascais area. -CW

Oh thanks for commenting, Michelle! We'll definitely get you added to the database and included in a future round-up!

It is so far! Thanks for the encouragement, Michelle :)

You're a great addition to it, Lani! Really enjoy your posts :) Glad you like our compilation!
I'd say that Portugal is fairly popular then, isn't it?
Can't wait to see you put together the Moldova version of this list. 😂
Hahaha, yeah there are some clear winners in our database! UK and US are surprisingly big entries.
Moldova will need to be combined with others I guess ;) haha
I would also love to see the Moldova version of this list!
I wasn't... But now I am!
🤩🤩
Amazing! I feel like I have friends all over Portugal now!
It's a nice lil community!
Iam surprised that with over 5000 subscribers and 450 posts ExpatInPortugal was not included. -- Nancy Whiteman

Oh! What a happy surprise :) Most welcome! Will get that updated now.
Thanks for including me and for introducing me to some Substackers I haven’t yet met!
Most welcome, Alison! So glad it resonated. 🤩
This IS GOLD⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️,
Obrigadíssima
De nada!
Thank you so much for putting this together, Kaila! I'm delighted to be in such talented company.
Several of the authors here are familiar to me but a lot of them are new so I'm looking forward to discover more perspectives on Portugal 💗🇵🇹
So glad I could help widen your lens, Casey! My pleasure for putting it together, glad it was helpful.
Many of my faves are here. Honored to be in such good company. I love hearing everyone’s POV.
