Where we are going

Continent, country, region, town. We start in the Algarve and write the rest one town at a time.

One site, three kinds of trip

Whoever is coming, the same town page answers.

Digital nomads

You work most days and want a base that does not fight you.

  • Cafés and coworkings with the laptop policy spelled out
  • Internet figures with their source, not vibes
  • Visa and costs with the date we checked them
Where to work

Workations

Two weeks to two months: part holiday, part laptop.

  • Best months by temperature, rain, sun and sea
  • Which area to stay in, and when to book
  • What changes out of season
When to go to Lagos

Families

Small kids, real days out, and a parent who still has calls.

  • Beaches by access: stairs, lifeguards, shelter
  • Days out with opening hours and prices
  • Which areas work without a car
With kids

How we check

Two labels, and we never mix them up.

Most travel pages blur what the writer saw with what they read somewhere. Every page and every place here says which one it is, and when it was last checked.

Checked on the ground

We were there: we worked from the café, walked the stairs to the beach, took the bus with the kids.

Researched, not first-hand

Collected from official and named sources, each with the date we read it. Useful, but labelled as such.

  • Town level, not country level. Lagos and Sagres, not just “Portugal”.
  • Work and family on one page. Wi-Fi and beach stairs in the same guide.
  • Dated, always. Prices, timetables and rules carry the day we checked them.
