I am considering a move from Ireland to Braga and wonder if anybody could advise me on life there. I find that renting in Porto is far too expensive for me and have discovered that rental property seems to be less expensive in Braga. My preference is for Porto but I know nothing of earther place. Any advice or comment would greatly help and very much appreciated. Daniel

Hi Dosul, Welcome.
Braga is a good city to live in. There are many videos in English on youtube to help you find your way around. I like Braga very much, there's lots to visit and a very beautiful natural park relatively close by, Gerês. You can take the train to Porto, it's only 60 kilometres away. And it's also a cheaper city than Porto, regarding rental property and other issues.
