I find it easier to understand people from Brazil than those from Portugal. It's like they speak gypsy with the European version.
Is your first language Latin America Spanish?
If so, don't worry, even those of us who are Brazilian have trouble understanding people from Portugal sometimes.
More than once I thought I heard people speaking Russian when they were really speaking European Portuguese.
Now after listening to some TV in EU-PT I can understand it naturally. Even though sometimes the manner in which they speak still makes me cringe. Some of it just sounds so formal and antiquated. But I'm sure they think we butcher their language with our peasant accents
