@cryptoland246 9 месяцев назад

Please stop promoting Portugal internationally as an ideal place to buy homes🇵🇹 as it is negatively affecting my people. There is a direct link with the Airbnb, Golden Visas and Digital Nomads and the prices of homes all over Portugal. Proof of it is the fact that even the Portuguese government pretended to fix it with a new bill that they passed last July called “home for all” which still favours Golden Visas and Digital Nomads holders over their native Portuguese. Portuguese are now starting to see rich foreigners who are buying our homes on the international house market as the source of the rising houses and rental prices. How can we compete with rich foreign who are buying our homes with our minimum salaries of €760 a month?!!!! The sad reality that Golden visa holders know that they benefit of free movement all over Europe when they buy a Portuguese home above a certain price, so the house prices were forcefully inflated to accommodate the value that guarantee them the status of Golden visa. Furthermore, as they all automatically get a Portuguese passport after 5years , which grants them free access to many countries without any commitment, really. They only have to stay 7days in the country a year to apply for a Golden visa, but they are allowed to affect the house market, our life style and our power of acquisition permanently. We live in a country with portuguese salaries, but our houses are on an international market, that is problem. In addition to this, our elderly people were forced out of their rental properties in the historic centres of cities such us Lisbon, Sintra, Porto, Faro, Coimbra , Braga, Funchal, Ponta Delgada,Setubal, etc. This has killed our heritage, culture and social fabric to accommodate a superficial postcard tourism that has nothing to do with us Portuguese.

As a Portuguese I’m very happy to see such a positive video about my country. I agree with almost everything you said. Ericeira is also my favorite spot. But as a someone who studied 5 years in Coimbra, I can tell you that 5000€ is HUGE amount of money for any Portuguese in almost any city. To give some perspective: minimum wage is around 600€. You can very easily live with 1200/1500€ per month in Coimbra and have a quite comfortable life. Other than that, very accurate video! Congratulations 👌🏻

The Serra do Gerez national park, up north on the border with Spain is also a beautiful mountain resort, the Braga city nearby is a wonderful city to live in. Located in the center of Portugal near the historic city of Coimbra there is the Bussaco mountain with its 17th century Bussaco monastery and beautiful gardens, and more to the south near Setubal city, there is the Arrabida mountain and the Sado Estuary. There are more mountain chains and National parks in Portugal, from north to south, but you get the point. The climate in Portugal is a Mediterranean type of climate, not too hot nor too cold, the more south you go the hotter it gets in the summer, and you can refresh yourself on the numerous beaches along the Portuguese coast. If you go to the north of Portugal there is more rain in the winter and it can get a little chilly with the windshield factor getting close or bellow to 0 degree celsius on certain days. One of the main priorities of Portugal is to maintain and preserve the environment, its history and culture. Portugal is one of the leading European countries in electric power generation from renewal sources of energy, specially hydro electric and wind power. Hope this helps your decision.

The new EU laws on property will effect many people, apart from new property that are well designed. The True Citizen, True Born Act will only allow people born in EU with both parents born in EU to live,work and travel. This will ensure the safety and security of the EU and its Citizens.

Yeah I’m from Coimbra. And I’m quite confused with that. I mean I guess if you pay rent for 3 or 4 apartments in different Parts of the city, if you eat caviar everyday, if you buy a 50” TV every month, and other ridiculous luxuries, I can see 5k a month. But why? If you live in Coimbra and you spending even half of that monthly; you doing a lot of things wrong.

@MG-ot2yr 3 года назад

I've looked at Portugal and reviewed various towns and areas. Don't want to be on the Algarve, too touristy, and I don't need to be close to a beach. Lisbon is too populated, but would want a historic town, I found Elvas, which is a very much overlooked UNESCO town in far eastern Portugal, which has everything I'm looking for and lower costs than other areas.

@rayvogensen2983 3 года назад

I thought your choice was interesting. I have been living in Portugal for thirty years and I too chose a small city to live in--Chaves, way up in the north. We of course didn't choose Chaves to retire in but to start a business so our situation was different. Elvas would be an "out of the box" choice because of its distance from all the tourist places and its proximity to a large Spanish city like Badajoz. We visited many years ago but I was planning to go back once the pandemic allows us to travel freely again. I wanted to go during the Easter holidays but we cannot leave our municipality. Perhaps in June. Remember that in Elvas almost no one speaks English and you wouldn't be able to find many expats with whom to socialize once in a while. This is the "problem" we have in Chaves. Chaves of course is much larger than Elvas and has several hipermarkets, a variety of international restaurants (two sushi restaurants) and even a McDonald's and Burger King. Elvas is more rural but you do have Badajoz only a few kilometers away. I hope you like hot summers because Elvas is very hot. Badajoz in fact has some of the highest temperatures in Spain during the summer.

@TravelingwithKristin 3 года назад

I agree; if you're looking for a slow pace of life and low cost of living, there are many small towns that would be a better fit than the cities and tourist destinations

@helderdocabeco6327 3 года назад

Hi there, I totally agree Elvas is really amazing and less than 20 minutes from great city in Spain. Vila Real and Chaves offer pretty good lifestyle and very close to Porto!

@joebanish7517 3 года назад

Great video as always Kristin! Coimbra, Porto, and the Algarve are all spectacular. I would add Aveiro, which is about 40 mins south of Porto. It’s known as the “Venice of Portugal” for its canals, and amazing seafood. Évora, in the Alentejo, is another underrated gem. It’s a UNESCO world heritage site for its Roman Ruins and cathedral, plus has some of the best food in Portugal in my opinion. Can’t wait to explore that country again!

@TravelingwithKristin 3 года назад

Thanks for the tips, Joe! I had Aveiro on the list at first, but decided to cut it to keep it at 10 places. I could've easily added 20, though! :D

@rayvogensen2983 3 года назад

I am a big fan of Aveiro perhaps because I have been so many times due to one of my granddaughters studying at the university there. In Aveiro you get a big city feeling with a lot of traffic and hustle and bustle. There are great beaches nearby, really not in Aviero but in Ílhavo, and you have a ferry taking you over to the peninsula of São Jacinoto. One problem I see with the city is that rent would be high due to the many university students taking almost all the apartments.

Ponta Delgada: Beautiful, but super rainy (& windy) at times. Nature-lovers paradise. Another bonus for US-based nomads are cheap, direct flights to Boston (due to a large Azorean expat population in the Cape Cod area) on Iberia's budget airline LEVEL, only 4 hours flight and quite inexpensive! From Boston you can get to almost anywhere in the US on Spirit and Jet Blue. Recommend, though personally I enjoyed Madeira more (bit more lively, warmer climate).

Regarding the cost of living, il all depends on the location, you can purchase a small rundown place for few thousand bucks to few millions. Rental is getting more expensive due to a massive interest in the country for digital nomads, etc.
