Dear Mr. Munson,
I’ve just had the distinct pleasure of reading your piece in the Portugal Resident on my video “Are Americans Returning to Europe?” and I must say, bravo. It is a rare and rather refreshing thing these days to come across a piece of journalism that chooses to prod the intellect rather than pander to the algorithm. Yours managed to rise above the usual froth, offering instead a considered and articulate exploration of the ideas presented with none of the usual tabloid histrionics, which, to be honest, are all too easy to fall back on.
For that, you have my sincere admiration. The nuance, the framing, the intellectual curiosity all of it was a genuine pleasure to witness. Thank you for taking the time to engage not merely with the content, but with the questions behind it.
Warm regards,
Some guy named Dave (in Portugal)
