Living in Portugal: What YouTubers Rarely Talk About

Thinking about moving to Portugal or just curious what life is really like here? 🇵🇹

In this video, I break down the everyday realistic struggles of living in Portugal, and I do it through the lens of different “types” of people I believe exist here. Of course, this isn’t comprehensive and the list could go on.

This is just my personal take and my humble opinion to help you better understand this country so that you are less surprised by certain realities and instead can funnel that energy into truly loving and appreciating this country and its people for what it is.

Also, for context, it is good to know that most of my time in Portugal has been in Lisbon, so my lived experience is based on that. In addition of course, I can give my opinion, but I am in fact not Portuguese and a Portuguese native would be better able to paint a better picture of life here. If you have the opportunity to talk to a local, that would also help you a lot and can be more insightful.

This video covers what you may not see often here on Youtube, but I do hope in someway, you'll find it helpful.

Do you recognize any of these “categories” of people here? Or have you experienced life completely differently in Portugal?
