What You’ll Find Here

BySuzike covers the main areas of my lifestyle and personal experience:

• Real life in Portugal, from daily routines to culture, places, habits and honest observations
• Fitness reviews from a real student’s perspective, with notes on intensity, atmosphere and how each class actually feels
• Active lifestyle content about movement, routines, walking, recovery and staying consistent after 40
• Style and real-life outfits for women who want to feel comfortable, feminine and confident
• Motherhood, family days out and practical reflections from life with my daughter
• Personal reflections on clarity, relationships, confidence, decisions and life after 40
• Practical guides, printables, recommendations and everyday essentials I use or genuinely find helpful

Food and recipes live separately on BySuzike Bites, while BySuzike focuses on lifestyle, fitness, style, motherhood, reflections and real life in Portugal.

A Little More About Me

I am Portuguese, I live in Lisbon, and I teach English and Portuguese. I also speak Portuguese, English and French, which shapes the way I look at language, culture, identity and adaptation.

I care about clarity, honest experience and useful content. My background as a teacher shapes the way I write: I like things to be practical, structured and easy to understand.

I also protect my daughter’s privacy, so she will never be placed at the centre of my content. Motherhood is part of my life and part of why I keep building, moving, learning and showing up.

If you are a woman over 40 looking for fitness insight, lifestyle inspiration, honest reflections and content that respects your intelligence and your real life, you are in the right place.
