Can Our Samoyed Dog Survive in Portugal?
We may be spending one or two months in Portugal to see where to settle when my husband finally retires. We have an arctic breed dog (samoyed), will he survive in this climate?

Thinking strongly that Portugal is where I want to retire. I will be spending about 10 days there in late March. Any Guidance?
Alba V. Says: We would like to spend two weeks in May 2023 touring Portugal to find a place where we could retire for a few years and enjoy the beautiful and affordable spots, cobblestone villages or non-tourist beach areas. Can you offer some ideas on where to go? IL Portugal Correspondent Terry Coles Says: Read more...: Where Should I Scout in Portugal for Two Weeks?
Sidney V. Says: Hi Terry, I read with interest your reply to Victoria L., “Can I move to Portugal on $27,000 a Year?” I have a question in a similar vein with respect to “top-up” health insurance for persons over 75 years. Is “top-up” or “supplemental” private health insurance available in Portugal for persons aged Read more...: Can I Get “Top-Up” Health Insurance Over 75 in Portugal?
I have lived in Minnesota my entire life but toured Europe for four months when I was just 18. I need to explore and be happy again, and so I would like to move to Portugal. I have a small, but steady source of income about $27,000 a year for the next 18 years. I would like to move to a community that is comprised of some American folks. I am looking to visit Portugal in about a year’s time to check it out. I would like to have some contacts before I come to visit. Could you possibly help me?
In the north winters are cold and rainy with highs averaging between 35 F and 45 F depending on location. Lows can dip below freezing but only in the extreme north or mountains. Summers in the north can be warm to hot, depending on the year with highs around 75 F to 80 F and lows in the 60’s. The only place that gets snow in Portugal is in the mountains and we even have one ski area.
Yes, Portugal is very friendly and accepting of the LGBTQ+ community. In fact, in 2019 Portugal was voted the world's most gay-friendly destination by the Spartacus Gay Travel Index.
My wife and I are considering going to Portugal in January or February 2023, likely focusing on Lisbon but hoping to visit other parts of the country as well. We are weighing the pros and cons of renting a car or trying to find a reliable driver.
