Your answer

*
Improved (fresh air, sunshine, slower pace 🏖️)
Stayed about the same
Declined (too much stress, too much pão)
Other:
Required
What’s been the biggest
health or wellness adjustment
for you personally?
*
Your answer
When it comes to Portuguese pharmacies...
*
I love them — super helpful and affordable 💚
I’m still confused about what’s behind the counter 😅
I panic-Google every product before buying
I miss the convenience of big-chain drugstores back home
I think they're missing the mark... Pharmacies here are basically perfumeries
Other:
Required
Which healthcare system do you rely on in Portugal?
*
100% Public (SNS all the way)
Mostly Public, with occasional private appointments
A 50/50 mix — whatever gets me seen fastest
Mostly Private
100% Private
I haven’t needed to use either one yet (touch wood 🙏)
Other:
What’s one
medical or wellness surprise
you wish someone had warned you about?
(Example: needing a prescription for things that were over-the-counter at home, GP wait times, local remedies, etc.)

I’ve cracked the system and even know which paracetamol brand is best 💊
How did your
diet
change after moving to Portugal?
*
More Mediterranean, less processed
More wine and pastries (no regrets 🍷🥐)
Totally different — still trying to find balance
Same as home — old habits die hard
Other:
Required
Be honest — how do you handle stress or culture shock here?
*
Walks, beach time, or nature breaks 🌿
Netflix and comfort food
Exercise or yoga
Venting to friends/family (or the group chat 😅)
Therapy or coaching support
I’m still figuring that out...
Other:
Required
If you could send your past self ONE wellness item for your first month in Portugal, what would it be?
