  • Portugal wrap up

    September 21, 2021 in Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 70 °F

    We landed in Portugal on August 26th. We paid a visit to Lisbon, Cascais, Nazaré, Coimbra, Porto and the Douro Valley. With a few minor side trips. So for those of you who are just following us, here is the mission. We are traveling the world to see where we want to hang our hat at the end of all of this. Portugal is high on this list for a number of reasons.
    1. Cost of living.
    2. Good medical facilities and inexpensive medical insurance costs.
    3. Golden Visa. Which after five years one can get residency.
    4. Access to golf and good weather to play the game.
    5. Slower pace of life.

    As of this writing, I would put her high on the list. The people have been great, food is really good, public transportation is great and wine is lovely and inexpensive. Hooray

    All that been said the country seems to be low on paint. No matter where we went, as I looked around my view was always "can someone please paint these buildings". All said and done a great country. I think we will be back to take a deeper look.

    For anyone looking to visit. Get to Porto and check it out. It has it all. Then if you like wine, take a trip out to the Douro Valley.

    Thanks Portugal. It has been a pleasure....
