Based in World
As a travel writer, my passion lies in unveiling the soul of Portugal. Through my website, Portugalist.com, I offer a unique lens into this captivating country, from the sun-kissed Algarve to the vibrant streets of Porto. My journey began with a desire to share the Portugal I know and love, a place where my family has deep roots. Over the years, my focus has broadened. I understand that Portugal isn't just a destination; it's a potential home. That's why I dedicate myself to guiding those dreaming of a life here, offering advice on everything from visas to finding the perfect town to settle in. Drawing on my experiences living across Europe, I provide practical insights for a smooth transition to Portuguese life. Whether you're seeking the best pastel de nata, planning a road trip through the Douro Valley, or considering a move, I'm here to help. My goal is to provide up-to-date, comprehensive information that goes beyond the typical tourist guides. I want to help you experience the real Portugal, whether you're here for a visit or for good.
