Anybody purchase a Genuino Sesmarias condo from ESCALA GLOBAL, S.A. by carlos-sousa

Hey guys,I have my D& Visa and I am in Portugal already but my SEF appointment is April 2024. So I have been paying my landlord since October 2023 based on my rental booking date at Uniplaces even though I fled to Portugal just in December 2023 ...

UK Citizen Moving to Portugal by Klmeermpt666
As a UK citizen experienced in teaching , can I find work as ESL , English teacher in Portugal ? Has Brexit effectively banned British teachers from working in Portugal?
