Something Clicked

In this episode, I talk about getting into poetry, how it started, and the books I’ve picked up along the way.

I also share a bit about poetry events I’ve participated in, from Madeira to Porto, and where they led me to.

Some things I mention:

• Song by Kae Tempest - Europe is Lost
• @poetswantedmadeira - a community in Madeira that occasionally hosts poetry events
• Botequim - bar in Lisbon once run by writer Natália Correia
• Poem by Natália Correia - Queixa das almas jovens censuradas
• @SpitNights - poetry events in the UK, also look for @georgie_jonez and @andys.words
• Pinguim - bar in Porto that hosts one of the oldest poetry nights in the country
• @joaokendall.719 - a new friend in Porto that I met at Pinguim, who also writes poetry and does street art tours in the city
• Poetria - poetry bookshop in Porto
• My (growing) poetry collection
