I’m an American who lived in Lisbon for years for university and I had to leave as soon as I graduated, even though I would’ve loved to stay, because it’s impossible to live on a Portuguese salary

I walked by every real estate office and why every home in Europe is like $500k?

Just to add- purchasing power is also way less than the USA. Like getting a new phone, new earbuds, new mattress, new shoes etc is not only harder to save up for but costs more due to taxes.

I think this varies a lot per European country. You can make a lot more in Germany, Switzerland or the UK

I would say most everything is way more affordable here (Portugal) but can’t imagine living on $1000. A month. You could buy 😬

Speaking from a french perspective here: 1000 is very little money. I lived in the UK and I now live in the Netherlands, I repeat 1000 is nothing.

I want to travel to Portugal to check it out, but I’m nervous it will be similar to Spain, which I was not a fan of 🫤

Unrelated but do you need to apply for a different visa type if you changed your employment when renewing your permit?

We ended up spending more in Europe than in NYC with two kids. We had one kid in NYC at the time
