Kalie from Expats Everywhere is back on the podcast to talk all things Portugal. Since her last appearance, she’s launched Slate & Key, a white-glove relocation service helping people move to Portugal.

In this episode, we talk:

  • Why Portugal is such a popular destination for Americans
  • Portugal vs. Spain
  • The Portuguese digital nomad visa and why it can be complicated
  • How to not lose your mind in the process of applying
  • Kalie’s experiences living in Portugal
  • Housing, taxes, and healthcare abroad
  • How long the relocation process usually takes

From navigating visas to understanding healthcare, we break down the real logistics of making the move, and how having the right support can make a big difference.
