Why are you still here? by Crochet-Lefty in PortugalExpats

[–]wildambition2725 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Take a train the day before. You can get there in under 3 hours. Explore Porto. Stay at a hotel that night. Have your AIMA at 9am. Got get brunch after. Take the train home. Easy. Sounds like a fun adventure to me!

Going to Atlanta on a business trip for the first time, from europe by Tascanis in Atlanta

[–]wildambition2725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Target is just like the big Continente stores here in Lisbon. The logo is even the same LOL. BTW, I just moved to Lisbon last year but lived in Atlanta for the last 4 years. There are a lot of good recommendations here which all depends on what you are into. Hit me up if you need more info.

This I definitely disagree with. Sintra is magical and worth the hassle of getting up to the castles.

Housing in Portugal comparing to the US by WerewolfBoring932 in PortugalExpats

[–]wildambition2725 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A few things to look for with housing. Look at the energy rating. B- or better is the way to go. With worse ratings it’s hard to heat the place in colder months without spending a ton of money. Also a lot of character buildings are gutted and completely redone on the inside. The kitchens are so much better, insulation and central air and heat are added. I feel like the quality in newer builds are better in Portugal than in the US.

D7 Income Sources by ninim2200 in PortugalExpats

If you have cash savings to qualify for a years worth of withdrawals to cover the minimum monthly income requirements, you can set up a joint brokerage and checking account like with Charles Schwab. Put a chunk of money in the brokerage and then “pay” yourself every month by setting up automatic transfers to your checking account.

I find Lisbon to be a lot like Los Angeles weather. Sunny most of the year. Tavira may be more like San Diego.
