Portugal is a beautiful country and investing in a property here or just paying rent is a great way to make a change in your life. There are a lot of reasons why people who have done this already are extremely happy that they have done it and we have listed a few reasons why you should definitely consider this option.
1. Low expenses
Life in Portugal has a relatively low cost. Not as low as in Vietnam, but relatively low if you compare it to other similar countries. If you do your research, you can find a 200-square-foot apartment for as low as 600 euros. A lot of people from all over the world decide to move here to save money while living in a small paradise.
2. The climate
Portugal is considered one of the best countries in Europe when we talk about climate and overall temperatures. In order for you to have an idea about what this means, just think about the fact that the average temperatures are around 50-60 degrees Fahrenheit during the winter and between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit during the summer.
With cool summers and warm winters, who wouldn’t be happy all the time? You will definitely get used to the weather and you will feel a lot more relaxed considering that you will not experience any extreme weather changes while living here.
This weather will help you have great health and you will not use your thermometer so much. You could have a digital one just in case, but you will be able to experience great health due to the climate that this beautiful country has to offer.
3. Remote work at its best
Portugal offers a lot of opportunities for programmers, content writers, and any person involved in digital work because the internet connection is great compared to other countries that have the same quality of life.
There are a lot of shared working spaces and if you are not bound to a place and want to experience the beautiful Portuguese life, you should definitely consider moving here.
4. Great place for your family
Unlike other countries that have beautiful beaches, Portugal is not a country where everywhere you look you see young people who have only one purpose, to party hard. The streets are filled with families with children and the country is very peaceful and offers amazing opportunities for raising children.
5. You will be able to speak English with a lot of people
This is a great thing about Portugal. While you might have the unpleasant experience of going to a foreign country and finding out that English is not so easy for them to understand, Portugal is one of the countries where a lot of people speak English and where there are a lot of British expats. This offers a huge amount of comfort because you will be able to easily communicate with a lot of people and the stress of not knowing how to speak the local language is diminished by a fair amount.
6. Amazing beaches
The great thing about living in Portugal is the high amount of wonderful beaches that have a calming effect even on the most stressed-out person in the world. The views you can have here are absolutely incredible and you will not regret even for a bit that you are going to be so close to the ocean.
