Thanks for the detailed report. It sounds like you are living a great life

The weather and food are amazing, especially the seafood.
The ocean is cold but I have a swim spa.



Sounds like the ocean is like in CA with the current coming down from the polar regions to keep the ocean chilly.

Overall, my cost of living is considerably lower and my quality of life is better in every respect.
I haven’t spotted Madonna yet.



I could accept the tradeoff of not getting to see Madonna.

We went to Portugal in 2018 and visited many towns included Sintra and Caiscais. IMO I prefer Sintra to Caiscais.

People are very laid back and nice, unlike a lot of places where they are
trying to hustle more money.
The weather is nice and everything is cheap (compared to England where my
in laws live or other places in Europe). Excellent choice.
Did not know about Madonna living in Sintra.
