Meet Our Family Team
Hi, I’m Kasia — mum, wife, and the voice behind this beautifully chaotic blog. I run on big ideas, and the love of my slightly unhinged but fabulous family. There’s Jacob, my husband — a passionate golfer, and the brave soul who nods along to all my wild ideas. Then there’s Charlie, the world’s most charming 7-year-old extrovert who’s already more popular than both of us combined. He makes the world brighter just by being in it. Add in our three dogs — a scaredy-Doberman, a forever-hungry rescue Molly, and a wise old Snoop-dog — and you’ve got the full circus. We move a lot, make a mess, and somehow always make it home. We are so glad you’re here!

About Full House Portugal
Welcome to Full House Portugal – where life, love, kids, dogs, and a whole lot of relocation adventures collide under the sunny Portuguese sky.
We’re a slightly chaotic, always curious, family of five: grown-ups, one spirited little boy, and three lovable (read: slightly bonkers) dogs. I’m Kasia – Polish by passport, international by experience – and together with my American husband and and our London-born son, we’ve relocated across Europe more times than I can count on one hand.
From solo days as a young woman navigating life in Poland, Germany, Ireland, the UK, and Scotland to family life in sunny Cyprus, then snowy Poland again, and now beautiful Portugal – I’ve lived it, packed it, unpacked it, and rebuilt it. We’ve renovated homes, chased school placements, translated endless forms, and hunted down the best kid-friendly cafes and dogwelcoming parks in each new country we’ve called home.
Follow our journey – the wins, the mishaps, and everything in between – as we turn each house into a home.
