True, that’s exactly like choosing between the devil and the deep blue sea (╯°□°)╯

Oh, I get it now! Yeah, unfortunately internet coverage from providers gets easily messed up even in the border with Portugal, and despite roaming being free, one may end up off the grid inadvertently, so it must be a lot more complicated in the middle of the sea. Wish I could help

Genuine question: Why do you need to rely on starlink or wonder about T-mobile in Spain? Unless one lives in the middoe of nowhere, there’s a wide range of ISP’s which cover most of the territory and offer high-speed service over fibre. If you don’t want to give your money to the big providers, Digi has expanded immensely as of late and they’re quite cheap. Sorry if that came off as nosey, you probably had to choose starlink for a good reason and already know about ISP’s in Spain

I really enjoyed reading your post! Thanks!

That’s a point of view I had never considered before and makes negatice outcome less despairing (? can’t quite find the right word). Thanks a lot!

Comprensible, con una peque es natural tener que hacer esas cosillas para que disfruten de estas fechas, bien hecho por tu parte! A mí antes me encantaba porque era una ocasión perfecta para reunirte y pasar un gran rato con la familia, eso sumado a que todo estaba iluminado de una manera especial, le daba un filtro especial a esos días, como de película. Hoy en día, a nivel de iluminación por ejemplo, se ha evolucionado en una competición a ver quién brilla más y funde antes las retinas de los ciudadanos; y las reuniones familiares simplemente ya no son, por no entrar en detalles ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Tempur is a crazy expensive brand, but does wonders in my case: https://www.amazon.es/Tempur-0855aj-Cojín-Asiento/dp/B001KALM3I Alternatively, the one below has also helped me a lot: https://amzn.eu/d/bUeqLi6 All in all, as someone said earlier, it all varies from one person to another, but there you have my two cents

Thanks a million NineMileTower! I’ll try and find the book and start from there!

Could you please provide any links or book recommendations for an absolute beginner? I’ve tried to approach it in different ways (apps mostly), but never actually manage to make it work and would love to learn what worked for you. Thanks!!

Non-native here, that’s some writing talent right there. Thanks, I truly enjoyed reading it!

Thank you so much for recommending this movie. Today’s my birthday and, on a hunch, I decided to give it a go, I just finished watching it and I cannot explain how much I needed it and how much it’s helped me on this day. Thanks a million

That’s so sweet pf you, man, you must be a cool dad. Thanks

I’m aware my point of view is not very popular, but in my country unions have been well-established since I don’t know how long ago, and they’ve become as corrupt (if not more) than political parties… full-time union representatives here are nothing other than people who pretend to be leftist but actually have a very capitalistic way of life behind close doors… at least here, that ain’t gonna fix the capitalism problem

In my teenage years I distanced myself from all of my friends after they started to get into hard drugs and I got in a long-term relationship. I didn’t know any better and my world centered around my then partner so I didn’t even try to make new friends; after 5 years, we broke up and I moved countries twice, and when I returned home, I felt I didn’t belong anywhere, moved town a few more times and have never managed to make lasting friends… I honestly think there’s something wrong with me…

Wow! I’m headed to Porto next week and am looking forward to tasting one of these! Any recommendations aside from the Francesinha, any cool places that shouldn’t be missed?! Enjoy your trip!!!

You’re absolutely right. It’s so much more convenient your way, though; everytime I’m fortunate enough to spend a few days in your wonderful country (I’ll never get the beef between some of our fellow compatriots) I feel like I’m making the most of my days thanks to your schedule! Viva Portugal caralho!!

(Very?) Belated happy birthday! Your family are the people you’ve chosen to accompany you at this stage in your life, the other one, the one you simply happened to be born into, don’t deserve you. Lots of hugs!
