Anyone know of a cyber cafe or business center in Funchal where I can print a couple of pages for shipping packages?
Hello,
did you find a good copy shop / business center in Funchal? I need to scan and print. Thanks!
Has anyone here spent some time in Funchal and can recommend things to do? Some more local places to eat, drink or hang out? Some (alternative) cultural happenings, live music etc.? Thanks for any infos!
Also, if anyone is here and wants to meet up, drop me a line…
I lived in Funchal for 9 months, did part of my Master’s there.
• I loved the Pico do Areeiro - Pico Ruivo hike.
• The laurissilva forest is dreamy.
• The Madeira Film Festival is beautiful and affordable.
• Punta de São Lorenço is gorgeous, check out the sunset there.
• Ponta do Sol. A charming town.
• Don’t miss the Carnaval in February and the Festa da Flor in May!
• Barreirinha Bar Cafe is a nice spot for mojitos in Funchal…
• but my favorite spot on the island (also with good cocktails) is Maktub in Paul do Mar.
Hello, everyone!
My idea is to stay as low as 6 months and as long as a year (maybe, who knows) over Lisbon after doing some analysis from many cities in Europe.
I'm an Argentinian and Chilean (both nationalities) so... no Euro-pass for me (getting my Italian nationality could take 2 years easily). I'm also a remote worker and I have a really good income (I work for a Silicon Valley company) so I can show more than enough resources to stay in the country.
Everything I see online doesn't inspire me much confidence (most sites looks a bit scammy) and this is not a "vacation stay"... I want to be clear my head far away from Argentina right now. If someone has a good website, recommendations, etc I will super appreciate.
Thanks in advance!
Not sure really. There's "Nomad Capitalist" but I've heard mixed reviews.
If you intend on staying in Portugal, my recommendation would be to research about their Golden Visa as well as their Non Habitual Residency program. It's well-known within the nomad community.
Checkout the "digitalnomad" subreddit as well.
Good luck!
How did you go with finding someone? I'm looking for a lawyer/migration agent to handle this process.
There are several active Facebook groups. Simply searching the groups for the term NHR can get you a lot of helpful results.
One of the groups for instance is called Porto Internationals. A few hours after joining you get approved and can search. If you don't find what you are looking for you can always ask.
I worked with folks from a company called moviinn. Migration agents with reasonable rates, and they give you a free consultation first so you can ask questions & find out what the best route is for you. They can handle the whole legal process for you too.
Hi there, title says it all. Canadian nomad hoping to find the city/town in Portugal with great, consistent surfing, a solid coworking spot, and a fun group of young nomads. Please recommend!
I recommend Madeira (the main town being Funchal). It's open for visitors in spite of the pandemic, with the requirement that they either submit evidence of a recent negative test or else take a free test on arrival (with quarantine for 12 hours tops while they check the result). It's still warm here, and I have found that there are quite a few nomads around (not necessarily members of this site). There is stunning hiking everywhere, and very good Internet. English is very widely spoken, though there are also plenty of opportunities for those who might like to learn Portuguese.
Here you go: nomadlist.com/places-with-many-nomads-near-a-beach-in-portugal
Lisbon and Porto match! There might be a few smaller ones not listed on NL, but they also won't have many nomads
Thanks! Definitely used your search tool before, it's great. Well done on the site as a whole, really unique tools you've built. Surprised to hear that smaller places like Ericeira and Alentejo won't have much of a nomad community.
Ericeira has a lot of permanent residents who work remotely and a few nomads passing through. Summer is more touristy and winter is quieter but with more serious waves. Was there last autumn for 6 weeks and had a great time. Think it'll only grow and grow - loads of coworking and coliving opening up
Rad! Would you recommend any particular neighborhoods / cafes? Also considering surf school... 🌊
it's only a small place so there's not loads of neighbourhoods - you're kind of in the centre or not! best food was in very local style restaurants I thought - follow the Portuguese old boys! Adega pub is where everyone seems to go in the evening
I stayed at villadosirmaos.com (they are chilled, great people) which is in Ribamar, 5-10 minutes up the coast from Ericeira. Their friend David has opened a more formal co-living place here - www.sunagohouse.com. You can borrow surf gear at Vila dos Irmaos and David was a surf instructor. I don't know much about other options but there are plenty in town.
One of the big surf shops in a massive modern building has a cafe which is good to work from. You can also work in more local cafes sometimes which are quieter than ones in town. I'd usually surf at Ribeira and there's a big cafe/bar there which also accepts workers
Shout me if you go!
For sure, & thanks so much for the fantastic recs - I didn't realize there was so much co-living happening there. Will check it all out! 😸
Thanks dude! They might have though but not enough for it to be properly tracked on here (e.g. not members checked in there as much). If there's a significant nomad community it'll start showing up here
Hi everyone,
I am going to move to Lisbon in July and I was wondering where you guys work from? Do you have any recommendations for working on a budget? Any good cafès or cheap coworking spaces?
I did some research and found some coworking spaces for > ~ 100€ p. month which is pretty reasonable but too much for me right now.
Thanks!
I used "getcroissant" whilst I was in Lisbon. You basically choose a number of coworking hours per month and are then free to choose any of the partnering co-working spaces. I recommend Heden, Selina and Outsite.
There are also plenty of wonderful cafes to work from. Several Copenhagen Coffee Labs, Heim, The Mill...
I'm preparing my Portuguese D7 long-term visa application and one of the required documents is proof of travel insurance with medical coverage. However, as an Australian citizen, if put that as my country of residence in many travel insurance companies' quick quote forms, I'm unable to get ANY insurance coverage at all because of the current travel ban out of Australia, and the Australian govt's 'Do Not Travel' advice to ALL countries. I know that Aussies are applying for, and successfully getting visas from the Portuguese Consulate here, so where and how are they fulfilling this insurance requirement if insurers aren't selling any coverage? Does anybody know or have any ideas?
I ended up going with SwissCare's "International Schengen visa insurance" which seems to cover all the requirements for Portugal's residency visa, and doesn't exclude Australians or have restrictions based on home country travel restrictions due to COVID-19. Let's see if the Portuguese Consulate actually accepts it.
You can get private travel medical insurance from Safetywing.com, they're a sponsor of this site too
I'll second Safetywing, also you can check out worldnomads.com, a bit more expensive but they have item theft (including electronics) coverage as well as a more extensive "activities" coverage. I'm not sure about their current country policies but both websites allow you to very quickly and easily put your department to/from locations and travel dates and give you an immediate quote/availability of coverage.
Unfortunately World Nomads was one that explicitly says 'no Coverage' for Australian residents if you get a quote or try to buy a policy, due to the travel ban.
Ah, I see. Sorry about that, but it looks like you did find a potential solution. I hope it works out for you!

It offers a balance of daily life and nightlife. Rents are extremely reasonable. Two of my colleagues and I decided to live in the northern suburbs near metro stations called Doukisis Plakentias. 15 minute underground ride to Athens centre. Mt. Pentelis which is very nearby offers and great trekking paths and clean air for those who love to be close to nature as well as close to the city. Nice shopping area too, like Halandri. Great restaurants, cafes, etc.,

For visiting tourists, the best neighborhood to stay in is NOT Bushwick. Park Slope, Prospect Heights, Ft. Green or Brooklyn Heights is preferable. Plenty of good transportation in those areas - subway, buses or Uber. Easy access to beaches in Long Island and New Jersey. There's plenty to do in NYC. Great restaurants, Broadway plays (!), and in the summer you frequently can catch a free concert.

It is still great and you can find really cheap apartments (300-400$) and restaurants (2-3$ for a main). Wouldn't recommend staying there during the burning season. The best area is Nimman, but it's also the most expensive. You can stay in the old city that's very nice but that gets noisy during the weekend for the night markets. Last but not least, very safe city. All in all would go back in a heartbeat.

Just remember this, people working at supermarkets make 2 usd/per hour. If you want to live like a local, then you can save a lot of money. If you don't mind a 5-10 minute walk from the BTS, then you can easily get a one bedroom apartment for 300 USD per month, in a high class condo, plus with free golf cart ser

It is easily overwhelming. Whereas I usually take my first week to explore a place Tokyo’s sights just kept on going. I remember ending up in a hidden cocktail bar, a mexican rooftop party with 1 meter margaritas, spending a whole day going only to French places(?), visiting a store that only imported 2nd hand hiphop apparel, and throughout it all the best michelin star ramen. It just seemed endless, completely unrelated and incredibly fun. Six wee

After having traveled the previous 4 months in India, Cambodia, VietNam, Myanmar and Thailand, Singapore was so easy! The subway system is a marvel, streets signs were easy to read, everyone speaks English (that just makes it easy for me as an English speaker) it is safe, clean, and parks are gorgeous. I was there as COVID 19 was breaking out fairly fast and that put a damper on my time but I was so happy to be there anyway and plan to go back. For digital
