Portugal, shortlisted!

I'm 62 and approach retirement, so I’ve been exploring various options for where to spend my "golden years", and this audiobook showed up just in time. The content is incredibly comprehensive—covering everything from visa requirements to healthcare options. I loved the detailed insights on different regions and the real-life expat experiences shared throughout the audiobook made it feel personal and relatable, which helped me visualize what my life could be like there.
The tips on integrating into local communities and even picking up the language were helpful too. I now feel much more prepared to make informed decisions as I plan my move and I put Portugal on my shortlist!

A great guide if you are thinking of a move

It covers everything—from the basics like visa requirements and healthcare to the fun parts like finding your dream home and diving into the local culture.

What really stands out is how well-researched and detailed it is. You can tell the authors really know their stuff, and they break things down in a way that’s easy to follow, even if you’re totally new to the idea of relocating abroad. I loved how they touch on practical concerns like managing your finances and navigating the Portuguese healthcare system, but they also make room to talk about the joys of living in Portugal—like the food, the stunning landscapes, and how to really immerse yourself in the local communities.

The narrator does a great job of making you feel like you're having a friendly chat about your exciting new adventure. It’s not overwhelming or overly technical, just a really solid, step-by-step guide to making your retirement dreams in Portugal come true.

If you’re serious about retiring to Portugal, or even just curious, I’d highly recommend giving this a listen!
