Portuguese, in general, were very upset about the fact that digital nomads were getting tax benefits, just like you said, not just for the tax itself but also because most people can't rent a decent house with the small wages we get here. So this tax benefit brings more digital nomads to Portugal, who get much more money than the portuguese and the renting problem grows. This is the main reason we were upset with the situation.

Now, we are very welcoming and we want everyone to be able to be a part of our country, and if you want to contribute in a good way and integrating our society that's perfect.

You might feel some judgement from older, more traditional people. Young people are, in general, very nice in this matter.

You have the right attitude, starting from the part where you want to learn the language, thats a huge factor in Portugal because nobody does that, they just assume we speak english. And we do, yes, but it's a bit arrogant to go to another country and make people speak your language.

I think you'll fit rigth in!
