I just returned from a 10-day trip to Portugal, and I fell in love with the country. We visited Porto & Sintra, while mainly staying in Lisbon. I know there is still so much more to discover of Portugal, but honestly, I felt right at home... I am strongly considering moving there and am binge watching your videos to help keep my dream alive!

My girlfriend and I just moved to Portugal 3 months ago on a D7 visa. We are awaiting our SEF appointments. We came from the West Coast. We are loving it! Yes, I have thought what did I get myself into? The people are lovely, the food is great, and the scenery is breathtaking. Overall, it's been and will continue to be a great and fun adventure.

Dave, és sempre muito bem-vindo a Portugal 😉

[@Mostspecialusername]

Something important to note is that anybody can end up rejecting the new place they move to. When people move to a new place they tend to go through 3 phases. First, the "wonder" phase, of the tourists where everything is new and exciting. Then comes the rejection phase, where you start to compare everything negatively with your original place, the culture shock phase. Finally you reach resolution, either you go full native, becoming "more roman than the romans" as the old saying goes. Or you can end up hating the place rejecting it completly. But in most cases people tend to reach an equilibrium where they accept the new place with all its virtues and defects. Best advice for anyone anywhere is to not burn all your bridges before you have stayed in the new place for a couple of years.

Hi, internet is good everywhere, Ericeira is the obvious place acording to what you ask, but for me is a tourist trap. The country is quite small, you will be almost everytime in an hour reach of a major city. In my opinion, the best places to live are Torres Vedras, Caldas da rainha, Peniche and on a budget Lourinhã. All have great surfing communities, and are still empty most of the time. Stay as a tourist the max you can, burocracy is a nightmare.

[@StylusPT]

Ericeira hands down (big surf vibe, beautiful village, restaurants, lots of ex-pats), Praia do Baleal - Peniche (surf vibe, lots of ex-pats), Praia de Santa Cruz - Torres Vedras (some of the most beautiful beaches ever, lovely village, more local but with surf schools), Praia da Areia Branca - Lourinhã (it's in between other, you have to go to).
