For students on the Lusophone boat

Are you a Portuguese student at Cambridge? Have you survived an endless visa application? Are you somewhere in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Maputo, or Lisbon, wondering why you can't understand a word in Portuguese, the language you studied for two bloody years? Then this blog is for you. Share your pictures, videos, worries, insiders' tips on accommodation, working, studying, and travelling. And find out that you're not the only one misusing the subjunctive. Wherever you are, document what you're up to. In English or Portuguese, it doesn't matter. As long as you keep in touch!
