What do you get when a photography aficionado and a linguist, intent on European travel, cross? Me, and this blog. The blog, ao redor do mundo (which means “around the world” in Portuguese”) is my way of sharing my European adventures with everyone back home. With tons of photos, plenty of rambling stories and a few links, you’ll get to see what life is like for me in Portugal in England for the next year.
Comment, especially if you want pictures of certain things and I’ll do my best to oblige, because even if I haven’t been there yet, I’ll probably want to go.
ao redor do mundo 
Dear Melanie,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
Love,
Aunt Melanie
Uncle David,
Natalia, Ava and Elle
Thanks so much! I think it’s going to be a fun day; we’re going on a field trip to a castle in the morning during class and then we’re going to the American embassy in the afternoon.
Love, Mel
