In this concluding episode of their first series, hosts Tara and Kate reflect on their journey and introduce guest Haruka Aoki.  Haruka shares her experience of moving from New York to Lisbon, driven by a desire to embrace her artistic self and find deeper connections in her new home.  With parallels to Tara's own story, Haruka discusses the challenges and joys of adjusting to life in Portugal, forming meaningful relationships and finding beauty in everyday moments.  The episode delves into themes of unlearning structured behaviours, the importance of community, and the rewards of following one’s passion. Tara and Kate also share ideas for their second series of Casa Fuzetta - A House of Stories.   ************************************************************ Any questions, comments or suggestions - please email us at casafuzettapodcast@gmail.com For more about Casa Fuzetta - please visit casafuzetta.com Details of the upcoming retreats can be found here: https://www.casafuzetta.com/2024-retreats https://www.casafuzetta.com/2025-retreats If you would like to join our February Workations, please complete the expression of interest form: HERE Or join our mailing list to be amongst the first to hear about new availability and retreat dates. https://www.casafuzetta.com/keep-in-touch You can also tap into the sights and spirit of Olhão and the retreats at Casa Fuzetta - by following us on your favourite social media platform.
