Nicole: The Saudade Life

On this channel, I share my life and travel experiences here in Portugal and around the world. 

Before moving to Portugal, I spent almost 30 years living in Massachusetts, USA. Originally from Jamaica, this is my second go at moving to another country. Having visited Portugal for the first time in 2017 and with regular visits since then, I have always known that Portugal would be my next permanent move. 
 
The search for a home along Lisbon’s South Bay started in the Summer of 2021 and ended with the closing on a historic building by the river in the historic center of Seixal. I now live in this river-side beach town with my family and we are currently renovating our quintessential historic Portuguese building.
 
The Saudade Life follows our journey in our new country. It will also include some of our travel experiences around Portugal, Europe, and wherever we find the experiences that set our souls on fire.
