RE: It seems I'm not the only one wanting people to come visit Portugal!

We think pretty seriously about retiring to Portugal. It's the right combination of inexpensive, civilized, and exotic (if you grew up in the American West). We'll spend a few weeks there in the next two or three years and if we like it a couple months in the next five years. The retirement problem is of course getting a long term visa.

Does it? I'm not fluent in Spanish, but I can read Portugese and get the text's meaning by relying on my very limited knowledge of Spanish, Latin and French. I would never dare to speak it though.
Travolta learned it in 20 minutes. HAH!
