While exploring Saõ Miguel in the Azores, I stumbled upon a fascinating expat: a Polish psychologist who traded her hometown Warsaw for the serene island vibes of Saõ Miguel—13 years ago.

She pulls back the curtain on what life's really like on this lush, green paradise. Think it's all sunshine and rainbows? She shares some hidden truths about island living that might just surprise you.

She invited me to her home after our chat - a boho dreamland that perfectly encapsulates her unique journey. Get ready to be wowed. Enjoy!
