Our walking tour guide Nádia contacted me a few days after we left Aveiro. During the tour, she had explained that the “salty boats” actually had sailed. She found some photos and sent them to me. I wanted to share them with you today.
Next Week: Why you shouldn’t believe International Living, escape to the Algarve, and we might make Vila Real de Santo Antonio home.
It's good that you are experiencing typical weather. I have had to eliminate locations in the Algarve because I'm not great with temps that can linger in or exceed the mid 80s. Yeah, it's a dry heat so 85 F feels like a cool 29 C. Glad you are having a good time.
I just read up on VRSA and it sounds like a lovely place. Very interesting history. However, I am especially interested in your take on IL. I found that site several years ago when I first decided I wanted to retire abroad. I lived in Germany for 4 years during my younger years, so i know I can live abroad quite happily. As I read more IL sales releases (yes they recommend where they have investments) I thought “This doesn’t seem real or genuine. This is not what I am reading about these places.” Anyway, I do credit them with the first thought of looking into Portugal. And I am very much looking forward to the next installment. I hope the arm is healing well.
