Lisbon is a capital that still feels walkable, with trams climbing past tiled façades and viewpoints at the top of almost every street. You can work from a sunny apartment in the morning, eat grilled sardines at lunch and be on a beach by the Tagus estuary within half an hour. It is the easiest place in Portugal to arrive, settle and meet people quickly.
