Expats Anonymous - Lost in Translation

EXPATS ANONYMOUS – “Lost in Translation” Edition

Well, you moved abroad.

Time to put that two-week Duolingo streak to good use. But turns out, “apple,” “bicycle,” and “backpack” rarely come up in real conversation—especially when you're trying to ask where the nearest toilet is.

Now throw in the stress of negotiating a rental contract, cancelling a bank account, or surviving a bureaucratic nightmare armed only with a pocket translator... and voilà, you've landed squarely in our next comedy night:

"Lost in Translation" — the 3rd edition of Expats Anonymous.

Join some of Lisbon’s funniest comedians as we share our most ridiculous linguistic fails and cultural misunderstandings. Even better? We want to hear your stories too. Help us turn awkward moments into collective therapy (and comedy gold).

🗓 July 11th
📍 Selva Comedy Café
⏰ Doors open at 20:30
🎤 Subtitles not guaranteed.

Até logo, folks. It’s gonna be uma noite “inolvidable”.
Hosted by Francesco Carnovale (@frangofrescocomedy)

Come laugh with (and at) our comedians as they unpack their disasters. And who knows — you might be invited to even share a story or two of your own. You can remain anonymous so no pressure... just comedy and communal catharsis.
