Inspiration for Fitness, Homeschooling & Lifelong Learning
I’m Suzike, a fitness blogger, passionate runner, and lover of Les Mills workouts. My journey is all about inspiring others to embrace an active lifestyle through fitness, running, and home workouts, while also sharing my passion for education and homeschooling.
As a Portuguese and English teacher, I believe in lifelong learning—not just in the classroom, but in everyday life. Through my blog, I share fitness experiences, workout motivation, homeschooling tips, and personal growth insights to help others find balance and inspiration in both movement and education.
Whether you’re here for running motivation, fitness inspiration, homeschooling strategies, or self-improvement, I hope to encourage you on your journey. Let’s grow, move, and learn together! 💪🏾✨
My Professional Journey
As a Portuguese and English teacher, my passion for education has led me to diverse experiences across Portugal, France, and the UK. Over the years, I’ve worked with students of all ages, helping them develop language skills, confidence, and a love for learning.
Beyond the classroom, my dedication to lifelong learning inspired me to explore new areas of education, including homeschooling, digital content creation, and fitness coaching. These experiences have given me a unique perspective on personal growth, self-discipline, and motivation, which I now share through my blog and social media platforms.
