How did you find out about Pure Portugal? / Did you know of us before moving to Portugal?
We have been following your Facebook page as we travelled around Portugal in our camper van.

What made you decide to move to Portugal from the your home country?

How does life in Portugal compare to living in another country you’ve lived in?
It’s slower, a much calmer laid back country

No!

What is day to day life like now in comparison to your old life?
Slower, no travelling but plenty of work

Does Portugal feel like home yet?
Yes, it’s a lovely welcoming country with beautiful people

If you could give one tip to someone still thinking about making the move what would it be?
Get Adriana Bonfiglioni to do the legal stuff she’s awesome!

What is the most difficult thing about living in Portugal?
Official stuff taking a long time and the dates they give you being nowhere near accurate!

What is the most positive thing about your move so far?
Returning to nature

If we had just one day in the area you have moved too what would you tell us is a must do/see?
Buy local honey and enjoy a day with us at Ahimsa to reconnect
