My Story A Minha História
Roger and Le met in 1994 — two people on opposite sides of the Atlantic. From that first conversation, they built a life together: Portugal to the United States and back again. Roger went from journalism at Nova Gente to working for major US corporations — Texas Instruments, FedEx, Cisco, the Federal Reserve — always keeping one foot in the world of technology.

On October 31, 1996, they launched RogerLe.com — a web hosting company that's still running almost thirty years later. In December 2019, they came back to Portugal. In 2024, they bought a Benimar motorhome and hit the road across Europe with Jolie, a toy poodle who has visited 24 countries and firmly believes she's in charge. The servers run from wherever they park.

Today, they travel almost full-time across Europe in their Benimar motorhome with Jolie, a toy poodle who has been to 24 countries and thinks she runs the show (she does). The business runs from wherever they park, serving clients in the US, Portugal, and Brazil.
Hoje, viajam quase a tempo inteiro pela Europa na sua autocaravana Benimar com a Jolie, uma caniche toy que já visitou 24 países e acha que manda em tudo (e manda). O negócio funciona onde quer que estacionem, servindo clientes nos EUA, Portugal e Brasil.
