CURRENT MISSION

to have a place we can call 'home'

ABOUT ME

We are a young, easy going couple, who have travelled a lot, usually as a way of getting together and seeing the world. When Diogo moved to London, Carolina stayed in Lisbon; when Carolina moved to Germany (Ulm), Diogo remained in London; then Diogo moved to India, and Carolina stayed in Germany; finally, for a brief period we both moved back to Portugal and then moved for a few months to Boston, USA (ah, we also spent a few months together in Brussels); but eventually Diogo moved to Yemen (working with Somali refugees), and Carolina stayed in the States. In September 2010, Diogo will be going to Washington DC and Carolina will stay in Germany until January, when she'll hopefully be joining Diogo and be happy ever-after!

PHILOSOPHY

'Tudo vale a pena, se a alma não é pequena.'; 'Ai que prazer, não cumprir um dever.' Fernando Pessoa, portuguese poet
Translation: "Everything is worth while if the soul is large enough." "Oh, what a pleasure, not to fulfill a duty."
