Another brilliant post. It is so heartening to hear you have built a caring community in Portugal. I wonder if being thrown out of our comfort zones is the trick to this…or indeed if the people are just friendlier in your new locale! Thank you for sharing.

First of all, thank you so much for your kind words!! 🥰 And I definitely think that we have to find new ways of doing things when we’re thrown out of our comfort zones so I think you’re correct in that line of thinking. I have quite a few digital nomad friends and know others who have moved to different areas of the world, and most have found communities as well. Not everyone is super nice here, I’ve run into disgruntled people as well but on the whole, Portuguese women are especially kind here. As well as most expats. 😅

Finding community takes effort and it’s definitely requiring me to step outside of my comfort zone a bit. I’m at the beginning of finding connections through FB groups and a book club. Love that you’ve found so many connections here in Portugal. Thanks for sharing this.
