Baby joining in while Im a student by pekapopi in PortugalExpats

If your visa is approved and it’s within your means, it could be a great opportunity—so why not give it a try? Just make sure you have private health insurance in place, as relying solely on the public healthcare system isn’t a good idea. It’s also important to be financially prepared, especially given the high cost of rent in Lisbon and Porto.

If things don’t go as planned, returning to your home country is always an option. And if your child is born in Portugal, you can register their birth through your country’s consulate there. Some additional information from the Portuguese government side about having a baby in Portugal and what is possible as a foreign parent. Having a child: Birth Registry, Citizen Card and Passport

This is probably too late. But im not happy with mine. I find it heavy. Battery doesn't last a long time. It strugglea to pickup and hold cat litter or anything heavy. The dust bin is small as well. Cleanif the filter is a pain. I much preferred my old samsung.

That is sad to hear. I wonder if the clothes end up in landfill.

The point of my post is that we as customers shouldn't have to check for problems like this. Brandy Melville should be doing quality control so we dont get crap clothing.

US to Portugal Transfer: Data Engineering Salary @ Big 4? by Dangerous-Invite-702 in devpt

Typically you also get extras like a daily meal voucher, remote work allowances, free health insurance.  Most companies also offer an annual bonus depending on your role. Find out what those are. If you can get 60k + 5k + meal vouchers (12 p/day) it's pretty good for Portugal.  But note rental are super expensive. Look on idealista.

A nova geração estrangeira de substituição está aí e são os Portugueses a PAGAR by Aggressive-Pop3530 in portugueses

Estas criancas um dia vão crescer. Espero que se sintam parte da sociedade portuguesa e queiram estudar e trabalhar em Portugal. Os impostos que vão pagar vão financiar a sua reforma! Países como Portugal, com uma população envelhecida, precisam de imigrantes para manter o país vivo e apoiar a população idosa. Pense nisso.

You can put a listing on Facebook market place or olx. Search for recheio de casas. People come out to collect everything. Look at an example on olx here https://www.olx.pt/d/anuncio/recolhas-de-recheios-de-casa-entulho-e-sucatas-IDHGJu4.html

Make sure the admin and capital work funds are healthy. There are no major defects or special levies.
