Picture this: After spending the morning walking the nearby beach, you decide to take a dip in your pool at home. You lounge in the temperate European sun until your partner comes outside and asks if you want a bifana sandwich, and you smile imagining the crunch of the bread from the tasca. You thank your partner and discuss your plans to meet your friends tonight at a historic site you haven't visited yet, and you marvel again at this little paradise life you've built by retiring in Portugal.
Retiring in Portugal is attainable through the D-7 visa program, as Brian O'Connell wrote for Kiplinger, and there you can find "a warm and arid climate, a low crime rate, more bang for one’s retirement buck [and] beautiful beach vistas along the Atlantic Ocean."
