Early Retirement Led Him to Portugal…But He Had to Work For It
Description
Tom shares how he decided to retire early during COVID and, after researching several countries, chose Portugal for its safety, lifestyle, and natural beauty. A visit in 2021 convinced him to settle in the Algarve, where he bought land and built a home with the help of professionals to navigate local rules. He highlights Portugal as an excellent retirement destination, especially for outdoor living and a relaxed lifestyle. He also reflects on challenges in the building process, including finding trustworthy builders and managing costs.
