Welcome to 2 Geeks to Portugal — where geek meets globe-trot!
We’re Lilly and Amy (aka the two geeks), and this site is our little corner of the internet where we share our journey of immigrating from the United States to Portugal. But this isn’t just your typical relocation blog. We’re not just navigating bureaucracy — we’re bringing along our dice, our dragons, our glue guns, and our love for all things sci-fi, fantasy, gaming, and maker culture.
If you’ve ever dreamed of starting fresh in a new country while staying true to your inner nerd, you’re in good company.
Why Portugal?
After years of dreaming and research (and way too many spreadsheets), we finally made the leap. Portugal checked all the right boxes — a welcoming vibe, beautiful landscapes, strong expat communities, and a culture that values slower living (and delicious pastries). We wanted a place where we could build a new life and still be unapologetically ourselves.
Join Our Journey
Whether you’re planning your own move, curious about life abroad, or just want to connect with fellow geeky humans, we’d love to have you along for the ride.
Check out our blog posts, comment on those posts, or follow us on YouTube. Let’s build a community of dreamers, doers, and dice-rollers — one blog post at a time.
Stay geeky,
Lilly & Amy
