For the hectic meeting tiger, life in Portugal will be a changeover. But those who embrace the Portuguese way of life accept the limited opening hours at the bank and that some shops close during the afternoon. Living in Portugal means enjoying moments more: The Art of Doing Nothing.
Live cheaper
Most people who are used to living outside of Portugal, such as in richer countries such as the Netherlands, France and England, find that the average costs for basic items in Portugal are lower than in their country. Renting a house, visiting the supermarket or going out for dinner, in Portugal it is all reasonably priced.

Due to the long coastline, a delicious amount of fresh fish is caught every day. No wonder this is on all restaurant menus in Portugal. But don’t forget the Portuguese words. Portugal has numerous local vineyards and is home to the famous port. Whether you come here for the first time or live in Portugal; local dishes such as pastéis de Nata (a tasty custard pie), pastéis de bacalhau (codfish biscuits) and alheira de mirandela remain delicious.
