Clear the air in portugal
We both lived in a major city on the east coast of the U.S. One of our neighborhoods back home featured, no exaggeration, cell towers, power lines, highway noise and the energy (and exhaust) produced by cars in a populous city. Moving to Portugal convinced us that all of that has a major effect on quality of life, as well as the quality of your sleep! Here you will experience a silence so rare and peaceful that your whole demeanor becomes relaxed and at ease. Meanwhile, what a pleasure to be able to have the capital and best known city to also be known for having the Light of Lisbon. Of course being that the country is forever tied to the sea, fresh ocean air is your daily dose of medicine and is sure to promote well-being and health. How about the stars? If you come out to the mountain areas, as serras, on a clear evening you’ll be convinced that the stars are within reach, which they are.
Change is good and a change of atmosphere can translate to an improved quality of life. We feel blessed with the opportunity of 24/7 access to incredible beaches. Not once have we been asked to show a ticket or a beach-badge. Depending on the beach you might not see another human being for a while. Portugal is peace. So many trails, river-beaches, national parks and other natural settings where you’ll be able to breathe a little better. Also, it seems that no matter where you are in Portugal there’s always at least just a slight breeze. And as the breeze gives sway to your green surroundings, you’ll know you’ve made the right choice for your new home-country. It’s a place where, in so many ways, you’ll be able to clear the air and take a breath.
