Feeling Grateful For Unforgettable Moments in Switzerland and Portugal.

Hey, everyone, I’m back! I took a little hiatus and went on a much-needed vacation for the past two weeks. Let me tell you, I had a wonderful time. I met new people who welcomed me as one of their own. These past weeks have been an incredible whirlwind, entwined with love, laughter, and exploration. From the majestic landscapes of Switzerland to the sun-kissed charm of Portugal, every moment felt like a treasure I will cherish forever.

Meeting new people, especially the warm embrace of my boyfriend’s family, served as a reminder of the beautiful connections life gifts us. Among the incredible people I have encountered, I have met Veronica, an engaging conversationalist with whom discussions flowed effortlessly. Ali, our gracious hostess, who truly made me feel at ease and welcomed. Celine, on the other hand, embodied a gentle spirit, radiating kindness in every interaction.

 And then, there’s the charismatic couple who playfully insisted we consider a future in Switzerland. On a related note, if you find me savoring Swiss chocolate, it’s not mere coincidence – know that the universe might have conspired to take me there, indulging in Switzerland renowned delights.

Sunset Dinners and Familial Bonds

However, the true highlight was the shared laughter, swapped stories, and created memories – they’ve enriched my life beyond measure. What made it even more special was our nightly ritual. As the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky with stunning colors, we all gathered for dinner. With everyone pitching in to prepare the meal or set the table, we savored delicious food and each other’s company against the backdrop of the mesmerizing sunset. Thus, these simple yet profound moments illuminate the true beauty of life. And as if these connections weren’t enough, each individual’s generosity made me feel as though I’ve been part of their inner circle for ages. Moreover, a cherished tradition among the cousins, the family reunion, served to keep the flame of familial ties burning bright.
