Some of my friends ask me
How come you have decided to purchase a property so far away?
I tell them.
When I am in Portugal, I do not give a shit about politics in my home country as I am far away in distance and I disconnect. I also do not give a shit about politics from Portugal as it is not my home country and I am far away from being willing to get involved in it.
All I care about is the locals around me, people who can give me a hand when I need it or I can help when they are in need, those I get to see every day or every once in a while when walking in town or driving in or out, because in a small village, true you lose some of your privacy, but you gain lots of love and care from your neighbors as everyone knows who you are. I am the Spaniard from Barcelona :)
