Lisbon, Portugal — March of 2022 Paige is sitting at her desk in her retro loft apartment, a 19th-century mansion in the trendy Real area. She looks across the room and remembers her early days in Lisbon.
Seven years had passed since she’d first set foot on the fabled West Coast after deciding to uproot her life and head elsewhere. On January 4, 2015, right after the new year began, she accepted a job offer from a major international technology company to work as an online advertising client adviser.
By the time she had been picked-up by a company employee who took her to the business complex’s apartment. She would live with other employees in a flat share. The neighbourhood was described as a good middle class district in a suburb of Lisbon named Oeiras, but the sight of the ghetto-like multi-storey apartment houses with a few palms and a supermarket in the middle was shocking.
Hello! Thanks for checking out my blog. I'm a German writer and trainer. I was born in Munich grown up in the suburbs of Frankfurt. Most of my twenties I spent in London and the UK. Wherever I've lived, my obsession with dance, fitness and writing has followed!
During the last years I travelled abroad working as a wellness coach in countries like Egypt, Spain, Portugal and the popular island Mallorca. I also teach courses and workshops for yoga and pilates.
While having worked in marketing communication for several years from local to international companies and agencies, as well as on freelance writing projects as a copywriter, I also published my first novel "Lost and found in your eyes" which is available for download on Amazon.
I love the city and I'm also passionate about fashion - just another addiction - but I'm happiest spending time on a good book, dancing, doing a good yoga routine or enjoying the sun at the beach. It's the only place I stop thinking about writing - but just doing it;-)
live, write, thrive
