Moving to Portugal - Kristina's story

Today we present a guest post by Kristina from My Portugal.

Hello, my name is Kristina and I have moved to Portugal from Sweden. There are two of us but only I have moved, my other half is moving down a little later. In this guest post I want to tell you about my experiences in connection with the move. Moving to a completely new country where you don't know the language and most things are new is no walk in the park. It was a journey that was not always easy, but I have no regrets. I usually say that my only regret is that I didn't move sooner.

Guest of the Week: Anna and Jan Nordfors, settlers in Portugal

To FREEDOMtravel

Anna and Jan Nordfors met in 2003 and not long afterwards they invested together in a farm in rural Portugal. At the time of purchase, the farm lacked exactly all the amenities of life, including a house, but that didn't stop Anna and Jan. They simply built a house themselves and in the meantime, for more than 6 years, lived in their caravan Tjosan.
