I had been looking for you wondering how life turned out after all this time! The algorithm finally brought you back :) sounds like you made the right move, very happy to know it’s working out. Wishing you your ID card & a handsome gentleman!!
So good to hear from you! Missed hearing the latest these past few months but happy you're in the moment living your life, learning and growing. Interesting about Italy...going there for 1st time in Sept. and definite tourist pricing I'm discovering. Sorry to hear its been a tough nut to crack dating locals there. Sending you positive vibes and glad to see you finally got your card!
Whoa, this is the first time you told us about the 6 hour interrogation for Bali visa renewal. That would have helped many in your audience avoid planning a life there and seems like a BIG deal to leave out of your experience there!
I feel you, I have lived in Singapore 4 years and did not feel like I made any solid friend and dating sux. I am thinking to move to Portugal for dating.. but maybe love is just a lot of luck in the end...
Cool to see in succession your video on looking for flats in Lisbon then follwed by this one. Wishing you luck on all ways especially the residence card. Im looking to make the same move, curious if the 183 day rule is true where you must stay in Portugal for at least that amount of time per year. Do you also know much about the subletting situation? Thank you so much for making videos about this stuff, much appreciated!
Thank you very much for this video! You are amazing! Thank you for being sincere and raw ❤ would be so cool to hear about all your experiences living abroad ❤
I hope you get your card soon! Regarding men, how about a few days in Copenhagen? Scandinavians are pretty chill. I’m sure someone cool would love to follow you back to sunny Portugal. I’m a straight chick, but that’s my plan. Hehe! I’ve only spent 3 weeks traveling around Portugal, and I’m planning my next trip back. I was surprised, but Portugal functions a bit like a friendly, kind, but developing country. It’s old world, but not fully 1st. There’s a charm and a frustration. They seem to have such well educated people, but the tax system is beast for them to work under. I think it destroys motivation, not just the easy climate and culture. On the other hand, if bureaucracy worked better, it wouldn’t be so easy to immigrate. I’ve really adored the Portuguese people I met, but I have been told they’re very hard to date. But, I know 2 people who are well partnered with Portuguese people. So, it’s not hopeless.
Hello, your experience in lisbon has been pretty enlightening to me as i would be moving to lisbon in August to study. the food will definitely be an issue because i am African and we love our spices. but ultimately i hope it is worth it.
Portuguese food us delicious and well seasoned. Choosing or discovering different types of cuisine won't be a problem either as there are Asian, South American, Arabic and African restaurants - you just have to explore or make Portuguese friends who know how to recommend restaurants that make real delicious food and not the trendy ones. I hope you enjoy your time here! 😊
Hmmm... interesting video, but you had nothing to say about the sardines or the wine, which for me are two big differences between Indonesia and Portugal?
Ty for making this video, quick question. Have you felt restricted by the residence visa, since you're not allowed to leave more than twice on the d8 ? I'm thinking of applying under the temporary stay (yearly renewal)
@@AdrienField Well you can leave but if you fly out you need to fly back straight into Portugal rather than going through other EU countries or other countries, because I know people who left that were still waiting for their cards and they had difficulty with the other countries allowing them to pass through.
My first residency card arrived within 3 weeks of the appointment. My drivers license took exactly 365 days, my second residency card is in process and I've been waiting 2 months for it to arrive. The only consistnent thing is the random inconsistency.
Bali became amercanised after that movie that ill never watch. I hope it goes back to the Indonesia it once was. It had more locals around with thier beautiful communal ceremonies. Im in portugal at the moment yes i agree with the dating scene, im female and straight. Im still scratching my head and decided to drop it and not play that game.thanks for sharing 😊
Exapt is a foreign living or working in another country. A migrant is someone who immigrates for good. Expats are temporary vistors even if they stay for years, they eventually leave.@jeanjacqueslundi3502
I live in another EU country, and there was an article in the news a few months ago that Portugal was at risk of being out of the EU because they are struggling to keep up with required EU regulations. I also know a lot of expats living there still waiting for their for cards over a year. SEF just collapsed then AIMA had to take over the process, and they said that they have over 500,000 - 700, 000 people backlogged. good luck though, hope yours come through soon.
He isn't white and he's moving to Europe so what's the problem? - Expat is the word for someone who makes enough money not to officially immigrate to countries and only spends short times in each country. 1 year or less. An immigrant is someone who starts the process of immigration and becoming a citizen. An expat has no intentions of ever becoming a citizen.
@@jeanlundi2141 I am an actual immigrant, I immigrated from Peru to America and got my citizenship. When I travel to Europe and have no plans to stay forever, I am an expat. That is the dictionary definition of an expat. Someone who is living abroad but with no plans of being naturalized.

Your Mail man is so sweet, he even knows your name 🙂
good to see you again. 😃
I will be moving to portugal next year with my family. Where can I meet other Indonesians who live in lisbon to socialize and hopefully make ftiends?
Yo a year in Lisbon😮where has the time gone.Are you still producing your clothing line in Bali?.
Mmmm impressed your learning life skills and maturing🎉
Hmmm... interesting video, but you had nothing to say about the sardines or the wine, which for me are two big differences between Indonesia and Portugal?
I don’t eat sardines anywhere so this is really not a factor for me 😂

Básic and bland? Harsh 🤣

Hi there miss you❤
The art of living as a resident, not as a tourist 😅
What is an expat?
A self sufficient immigrant
@@AdrienField So everyone with a job that covers their bills in another country is an expat? Weird term. Why not just use immigrant?

@@reemsaif3105No it's a sanitized term for westerners immigrating to the third world or countries poorer than their own.

Try liveing in Hawaii.All important documents is attended to on Hawaiian time😂
In Porto, we have a large gay expat community with monthly meetings. Helps to never be alone, hang in there. Your life will be better in time.

Portuguese food is bland??? 😂😂😂
Yes, for a lot of us, it is. What’s great, the produce is great. A lot can be done, as long as you bring your spices.
Compared to Asian cuisine it is. But it's much better than the UK lol
