In this session we will be exploring language, culture, and lived experience in a warm and supportive setting. Our community’s favourite Portuguese teacher, Filomena, will explain why Portuguese can feel so challenging, especially for adult learners, and why effort matters so much in Portuguese culture. Trying, even when it feels uncomfortable, is noticed and appreciated, and it often opens doors that perfect grammar never could.

Alongside this, members of our community will share real stories from their own learning journeys. Some are funny, some are awkward, and some are quietly uplifting. They show how learning Portuguese is not about avoiding mistakes, but about learning through them, building confidence, and discovering that these shared experiences often lead to connection, encouragement, and even friendship.

Moving to Portugal in 2026? This webinar explains Portugal visa options including the D7 visa, Digital Nomad visa (D8), and residency routes for retirees, remote workers, and freelancers. It focuses on real-world Portugal immigration requirements, timelines, and common mistakes people make when planning a move to Portugal.

With so much outdated and conflicting information online, many people misunderstand Portugal visa rules, income requirements, and how applications are actually assessed. Advice shared on social media or forums often reflects old rules or situations that do not apply to your personal circumstances.

This session offers practical, up-to-date insight into Portugal residency applications, including financial thresholds, savings requirements, housing expectations, documentation, and realistic timelines. It is especially relevant for those considering the D7 visa for retirees or passive income earners, the Digital Nomad (D8) visa for remote workers, and others planning long-term residence in Portugal.

Rather than focusing only on what appears “on paper”, the discussion reflects how Portugal visa applications are processed in practice, where delays commonly arise, and why planning based on current information is essential — whether you are applying in 2026 or preparing for a future move.
