As expats-to be, we visited Portugal earlier this year to see what everyone was talking about. Porto was fine but the jewel of the trip was Braga and the Duoro Valley.
I'm so glad you guys are visiting these regions again, but...with seasoned eyes and even more depth! When I think there's no way anyone can get any deeper into these topics, you go and DO IT! Your work speaks for itself. You guys are in a league of your own! Keep up the good job guys. Love it!!!❤
We scouted our way through PT earlier this year and Braga was so wonderful. I just wasn't sure about living there because I really want to live near water - river or ocean. You really did make me "say what!?!" when you highlighted the river beaches near Braga. I had no idea! Thanks again for the awesome information that provides a more comprehensive look. I'm also super interested in Viana do Castelo. We didn't get to visit there, so I'm burning to get back and explore more. 👀🕵️♀️
A tour do estádio é bem legal. A melhor vista da cidade é do Sameiro, logo acima do Bom Jesus. Poucos dizem, mas Braga também tem prédios modernos em diferentes locais da cidade: Nogueiró, Fraião, Real... Não metrô, mas os ônibus atendem bem até 22 horas. Bom hospital público, boa universidade, alguns shoppings e diversas praças com áreas de lazer: Parque da Rodovia, Parque da Ponte etc.
Thanks for this encore review of Braga. We visited Bom Jesus but wasn’t the best weather so thanks for showing what it looks like on a sunny day. 😎 Appreciate the piece on the river beaches. Have heard of them but never saw them. 🤷 Wasn’t aware of the Braga Stadium uniqueness-thanks for this tip as well. 👍🏻
Greetings from Estoril...As someone who used to live in Ponte de Lima and visits Braga often...It is my favorite city in Portugal! From the Energy to the People including activities...It provides an healthy balance between Play and work! Simply Fantastic! 🇵🇹✌️👏😎
This is great...always interested in Braga. Thank you! Can you also do an informational visit to Viana do Castelo? There is an inner city, beaches, a beautiful promenade along the water. I have seen it on RUclips but not through your eyes...or maybe I missed it? Again, thanks for all you do.
You tempted me with the funicular. I think a lifetime won´t be enough to know Portugal, and I´ve never been in Braga!! And I think you didn´t show us the Coimbra stadium! 🙂
Hey! :-) We're glad we tempted you. When you visit Braga, let us know what you think. I think you know why we didn't highlight the stadium in Coimbra. - Josh & Kalie
Hi guys. Thanks for the tips. By the way how’s is the winter around Braga??? I’m think to go around October to visit some small city Caçarilhe in terra dos Basto
Hi Friend and I are heading to Porto tomorrow for 4 days. We want to see and learn as much as possible. Any recommendations on Bars or Pubs where expats hang out? Were Americans..thanks
Hi, sorry that we missed this comment! We were traveling when the video went live and we didn't have any internet access. Where did you end up? - Josh & Kalie
You have see it in the winter with the smoke burning in the fields. The air is so difficult to breathe. Changed my mind about Braga. I chose Porto instead and very happy.

Hi 👋 thank you. We already have a city guide on Viana do Castelo. You can check it out by searching our channel 🔍’Viana do Castelo’. - Josh & Kalie
I will expat that! My wife and I have our apartment contract and will likely have our visa by September. Great video! Thanks
Congratulations! Thank you for the comment. - Josh & Kalie
I love, love, love braga so much. I recently returned from my trip there this past April.
Thanks for sharing, Rebecca! :-) - Josh & Kalie
What I found the most curious in Braga was the Casa dos Crivos ( Sieves House), which was built to look the street outside, but never be seen inside.
Nice! - Josh & Kalie

No country in the world has an Expat Department but every country in the World has an immigration Department
That's correct but what's your point? Are you saying that one word can't exist because another word exists? That's weird.
Would they let you live in Braga if you don't brag a lot?
LOL maybe but we wouldn't dare try. - Josh & Kalie

Thanks for sharing. Yeah, the smokey period is rough. - Josh & Kalie
@@ExpatsEverywhere the only reason I am in Porto but I love it and I just bought another home there. My fav city in the world
