Why I am leaving Portugal after living here for many years. What changed?

Most sites that provide information about relocating to Portugal are run by people who are looking to make money from providing relocation services, and therefore don’t give a balanced view of some of the difficulties one will inevitably experience in moving here.

This site has a mandate to provide unbiased information from a Canadian perspective to those considering making the move to Portugal. Other sites may sugar coat some difficulties you may encounter moving here. I do not take money from any source, I run this site as a free service to keep it unbiased and sugar free.

Much of the information and most of the resources in english give information that is relevant to Americans, but there is a lack of information geared to the Canadian immigrant to Portugal. Canada is a completely different country than the USA, and Canadians will have a different experience moving here.
