Portugal: the digital-nomads hideaway

Surely, Lisbon and Porto are the main well-known cities of this country, and taking evening scrolls around their historical centres while counting the many colorful buildings covered in tiles, is quite an entertainment. However, let’s not leave aside the beautiful Atlantic coastline and the warming welcome that the inhabitants of little towns such as Aveiro, Sintra, Cascais or Coimbra can offer. 

This combination makes the most occidental country in Europe the perfect place where to settle down while telecommuting. If you top it up with the outstanding and affordable gastronomy, where you can savor typical dishes such as cod or sardines, there is no wonder why many freelancers chose Portugal as their office.
