Three Months in Portugal
We had three distinctly different experiences in our month long stays from northern to southern Portugal. Follow along as we review how Portugal scored on our rating system for both short and long stays. Should you plan on a vacation here? Would we come back long term?
A Month in the Algarve: Olhão, Portugal
Our final month long stay in Portugal has been in the Algarve. Specifically in the city of Olhão in the eastern Algarve. In a region that is known for sunshine, warm temperatures, beaches, tourism, and expats, did it live up to the hype? Would we come back?
