Porto vs Lagos, I'm stuck in a hard decision.. by ejinkayleekim
Hello everyone, I'm Kaylee. I will go to Portugal this summer and stay there at least for 5 months. The main purpose is to learn and practice Portuguese, get to know Portugal culture, and etc. I've applied a job in Porto and Lagos, both said to ...
Maybe Lagos is more touristy as summer holidays goes, but Lagos is as true portuguese city as Porto. Reducing Lagos to the beaches and sun is nonsense. Actually Lagos was one of the main cities of the country during the discoveries, even the main ... Read More

Portuguese Language Study Group - Sesimbra by 1World Traveler
My Portuguese sucks, and I'm sure that I am not the only English speaker with inadequate language skills. I also really miss the traditional American/English - Breakfast/Brunch. I am interested in hosting a language study group in my home in ...

Of course that the system of "new books every year" is not related to the education system per se, as you should understand. Those are the pressures from a different kind of industry. Of all the problems inherent to the Education system, that one ... Read More
