Lisbon is an historical city full of stories to tell, where the sun shines 290 days a year and the temperature rarely drops below 15°C (59°F). It boasts beautiful and relatively unspoiled architecture, great restaurants, and bars, and is close to both a host of unspoiled beaches on the Atlantic coast and to the beautiful vineyards of the Alentejo. It is also recognized as an alpha-level global city because of its importance in finance, commerce, media, entertainment, arts, international trade, education, and tourism. Portugal has a population of over 10 million people.
The Portuguese participate in many cultural activities, indulging their appreciation of art, music, drama, and dance. Portugal has a rich traditional folklore, with great regional variety.
Despite its relatively small size, the country boasts a great diversity of geographical features, from golden plains to mountainous zones. Moreover, its location allows quick access not only to several European countries, but also to the east coast of the American and African continents. Portuguese is spoken by more than 200 million people in several continents, including Europe, Africa, and America. This diversity has contributed to the deepening of historical and cultural ties between Portugal and the world.
The list of attractive features in Lisbon is endless. Quality of living and working in Portugal is rated high, measured by safety and security, well-being and personal happiness, alongside travel and transport. Surveys indicate that 93% of expats living in Portugal are satisfied with their life in Portugal, and describe it as a very easy place to settle in.
Furthermore, Portugal’s public healthcare system has an excellent reputation, and the cost of living in Portugal is relatively low compared to other destinations in Europe. Portuguese people are well-known for being welcoming, effusive, and justifiably proud of the place they call home. Learning the local language is an additional plus, but not a requirement.
