Welcome to Lisbon!

Hey everyone! So I’ve been getting settled in and really enjoying meeting all the team. To say that I’ve got a great team is such an understatement! Everyone’s so friendly and helpful in everything. I have asked a million questions as usual and they still help which is great. Portuguese people are so nice and very understanding with all my pointing. Basically this is the way it goes down when I order something. I just point or attempt to butcher the word. Haha always comical. Now I am just finishing up my second week of language school and have learned so much in such a short period of time. I start at the university on Monday and will be there until the end of May taking a Portuguese class. Football has already started as well. We have practice every Saturday and all of the football teams watching the Superbowl Monday morning at 12:30 at the Hard Rock CafĂ©. I am going to be playing running back. No lie. Running back. That’s a lineman’s dream position. But yeah everything's going great. I appreciate your prayers so much and hope everyone has a great weekend!
