Hello Emily, welcome on board !


Please note that I have created a new thread from your post on the Portugal forum so that members may guide you.


Money and budgeting is of course to be taken into consideration, however I think that finding a job should be your priority as you will be needing a visa to stay in Portugal long term.


Find out more in the Visa section in theΒ  following page : https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advic … quirements


Do you speak Portuguese ? It could help you in finding a job


All the best
