any idea to synchronize my dictionaries or were I can find my personal

This may depend on which OS you use and which spelling checker you use.
(On Windows the spelling checker is Aspell, but on Linux you get a
choice.)
Look first in Tools -> Preferences... -> Language Settings ->
Spellchecker and see if the path to the personal dictionary is set
there. If not, and if you are using Aspell, you are looking for a file
named XX.pws, where XX is the ISO two-letter code for the language you
use (e.g., en.pws if you write in English). On Windows, there are a few
possible hiding places for this file, starting with the location where
Aspell is installed (if you have the full program installed) and
including ~\Application Data\Aspell where ~ is your "home" directory
(usually C:\Documents and Settings\<you>\) or, if Aspell is installed
"for everybody", C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application
Data\Aspell.
