We are a family with three young children who are considering a move to Portugal (from USA). Just like most families with children, our biggest constraints for moving are school... read more and activity options for the kids, and housing area. Additionally, we are one of those families who also struggle to find the time and opportunity to travel for longer than 14 days, or for multiple times, as both of us work and we have very minimal support system here in USA. Thus, it is very important for us to narrow down our search areas for when we travel to Portugal so we that can be as efficient as possible with our limited travel time. I found Nia (Portugal Wizard) from an online forum that discusses life with kids in Portugal. She seems knowledgeable about these two most important elements of our consideration in the forum, so when I saw that she actually offers consultation services, I decided to reach out to her. I am so glad I did! We emailed each other several times before meeting on a video call. She was always prompt, direct, and responsive, and she completely understood our priorities. There was absolutely no misunderstanding. We had a very productive and informative video call as well! She answered a lot of our questions. As a result, we feel a lot more at ease now. We are confident that with Nia's help, we will find what we need to find without wandering about the country, straying away from our focus.
