What is life like as an expat in your area?

Answer this Question

When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...

"Life for expats and digital nomads in Sintra is often described as relaxed and culturally rich. The town is known for its stunning architecture, lush gardens, and historical sites, providing plenty of opportunities for exploration and photography. The cost of living is relatively low compared to other European cities, making it an attractive destination for those working remotely. The local community is friendly and welcoming, with many locals speaking English, which makes it easier for expats to settle in. The food scene in Sintra is diverse and delicious, with a wide range of Portuguese and international cuisines available. The town is also well-connected to Lisbon, Portugal's capital, which is just a short train ride away. This makes it easy for digital nomads and expats to enjoy the vibrant city life of Lisbon while living in the peaceful and picturesque town of Sintra. The climate in Sintra is mild, with warm summers and cool, wet winters. This makes it a great place for outdoor activities like hiking and surfing. The town also has a good infrastructure with reliable internet, which is crucial for digital nomads. However, it's worth noting that while Sintra is a beautiful and peaceful place to live, it can get crowded with tourists, especially during the summer months. This can make the town feel less like a local community and more like a tourist hotspot. Overall, life for expats and digital nomads in Sintra offers a unique blend of natural beauty, historical charm, and modern conveniences," wrote a member who made the move to Sintra, Portugal.
