I am a single American woman nearing retirement age and, as you can imagine, I have several questions. I've done a ton of research and so far it's checking all of my wants and needs but I would appreciate any advice as to questions that I may not have thought of! What is the atmosphere for expats in general and the best areas with the strongest English speaking expat communities. I'm rather leaning towards the Algarve region but haven' ruled out the Porto or Lisbon areas. I like to stay active and have a variety of interests but I am a social person by nature and don't want to feel lonely when I leave my friends and family behing. Good news: they're all travellers, like myself. Any and all suggestions would be greatly appricated.
Thanks!!
