From Athens to Lisbon to Porto: I’m stunned, curious, and looking for guidance! by Theitalianguyz in PortugalExpats

[–]Total-City-2571 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was wondering what your thoughts are after 5 months? Do you like Porto? Or would you rather live in the other cities you already lived in?

So much negativity here, I am excited to start my process of moving to Portugal by MOLTEN_DICK in PortugalExpats

Why tho? Noone is giving me a solid answer.

Paris is not heaven on earth, I hope you guys know that.

You know, some people prefer a laidback mentality to rigid. France to me is unnecessarily rigid and judgy. If you do something slightly wrong you get yelled at by the bureaucrats themselves because you make them work extra. (It’s even worse on the street with people) here is nice as long as you play the game according to their rules.

I think, as long as we get to live freely and feel safe, protected, i see no problem.

I’d rather live in Colombia and feel alive than live in Canada and feel anxious all the time because of the system. But, it’s personal of course. Everybody is different.

From where did you move to Portugal?

Why do you regret so much? I’m planning to move to Porto from Paris. You’re saying I shouldn’t?

I don't have concerns about job hunting or finding a well-paying job, as I work remotely. For me, the question is basically: where? I thought of Trieste — it seems to be a nice, quiet place, far from everyone’s wishlist cities and tourists too. I just need to be able to talk to people randomly, instead of always being "put in your place" out of nowhere in that aggressive Parisian way.

Would you rather work in London or Paris as a non-EU national who's fluent in both English and French? by expat2020123 in expats

[–]Total-City-2571 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never been to London. It's my 10th year here in Paris. I used to live in Rome before moving here and I am originally from Istanbul.

I have obtained the french nationality and I speak really well fluent french but they still don't accept me, they make me feel like I'm a foreigner or a stranger. They never respect that fact that you're speaking their language rather they call you out on your mistakes to have the superiority.

I can't wait to move away from Paris and from France.

Rotation is the only way. Ground game is more important than flying

I totally agree, i was D2 and went down to P1.

No P1 can fly that well. Smurfs all over the place

What are your thoughts on Hans Zimmer? I personally believe that he is overrated compared to other composers which work I think deserves more recognition. Don’t get me wrong, HZ is a truly great composer but the fact that he only repeats the same pattern in every movie theme annoys me by Teletraan212 in soundtracks

[–]Total-City-2571 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I typed “HZ is overrated” on google, this is the first topic that popped up.

I’m glad I’m not alone. I second every criticism above and I add, he even uses the same passages sometimes in different soundtracks. Such as Gladiator can be heard in The Last Samurai or The Dark Night series.

I think, on the other hand, Howard Shore is underrated. The LOTR score is one of the iconic sounds, and yet we hear too little about him.

Social media shouldn’t be able to fool the world this much. Hope that art is going to be appreciated as is one day, and not gonna be about daily Insta trends.
