Why Do So Many Americans Struggle in Portugal? A Bittersweet Odyssey
A Cautionary Tale for Those Seeking a New Life in Portugal
Enjoy the sun's warm glow on the iconic April 25th Bridge in Lisbon, Portugal. The bridge, spanning across the Tagus River, offers stunning city views and is a popular spot for locals and tourists alike to enjoy the beautiful scenery. (Photo by author).
From the sun-kissed shores of the Algarve to the bustling streets of Lisbon, Portugal is an enigmatic tapestry of history, culture, and charm. A country often overlooked in favor of its Iberian neighbor, it has quietly stolen the hearts of expats and travelers alike. But as with any love affair, it’s not without its hiccups, and Americans, in particular, seem to struggle with this wistful land of azulejos and fado. So why does Portugal present such a paradox to my fellow Countrymen?
It’s a question that’s been nagging at me as I’ve meandered through the intricate streets of this storied nation, and I’ve come to realize that the answer isn’t as simple as you might think.

The Language Barrier

The seductive lilt of Portuguese is a language that entwines itself around your soul, ensnaring you with its rhythmic cadence and lyrical charm. It’s a language that demands to be heard, savored, and whispered into the ears of lovers beneath a moonlit sky. Yet, for all its beauty, Portuguese is a language that remains shrouded in mystery for many Americans. As a collective, we have a regrettable tendency to assume that English is the only passport we need to traverse the globe. But let me tell you, that attitude is a one-way ticket to alienation in this land of poets and troubadours.
As you wander through the winding, cobblestone streets of Lisbon or Porto, you’ll find that the Portuguese people are amiable and quick to offer a smile or a helping hand. But beneath their affable exteriors, there’s a fierce pride in their linguistic heritage, an unwavering determination to preserve the mother tongue. This pride is both a challenge and an invitation to us Americans — a gauntlet thrown down, daring us to step out of our linguistic comfort zones and embrace the rich tapestry of sounds and syllables that make up the Portuguese language. Are we willing to rise to the challenge, or will we continue to cling to our monolingual life rafts, adrift in a sea of cultural ignorance?

The Pace of Life

The Portuguese have mastered the art of living, savoring each moment with the same fervor they dedicate to their passionate fado melodies. It’s a way of life that’s both intoxicating and infuriating to the American psyche, which is so deeply entrenched in the relentless pursuit of productivity and progress. As the sun casts its golden glow over this enchanting city, you’ll find the streets alive with laughter and leisure, a testament to the importance the Portuguese place on balance and well-being. It’s a philosophy that seems almost alien to the American mind, a tantalizing glimpse into a world where life isn’t measured in milestones but in moments of pure, unadulterated joy.
And yet, for all its allure, the languid pace of life in Portugal can also be a source of immense frustration for those of us who hail from the land of the free and the home of the brave. We are a nation of doers, movers, and shakers, and the idea of taking a step back and allowing life to unfold at its own pace can be nothing short of maddening. In Portugal, time is a luxury to be savored, not a commodity to be bartered or squandered. It’s a lesson that we, as Americans, would do well to learn — that sometimes, the most profound victories are won not on the battlegrounds of the industry but in the quiet moments of reflection that can only be found when we allow ourselves to slow down and truly live.

Bureaucracy and Red Tape

If there’s one thing that Portugal has in spades, it’s bureaucracy. The country thrives on paperwork, official stamps, and endless queues. For the uninitiated, Finding one’s way through the complex and convoluted bureaucracy. can feel like trying to escape the Minotaur’s lair, armed with nothing but a ball of string and a prayer. Americans, accustomed to the streamlined efficiency of online services and one-stop shops, often pull their hair out in frustration as they try to make sense of the Kafkaesque maze.

A Different Work Ethic

In Portugal, the boundaries between work and leisure are blurred, a fluid dance of obligations and indulgences that prioritizes the human spirit above all else. It’s a work ethic that challenges the very foundations of the American dream, forcing us to confront the possibility that there’s more to life than the relentless pursuit of success and status.
But let me tell you, my fellow Americans, the transition to this alternative approach to work can be a rocky one. For those of us who have spent our lives chasing promotions and paychecks, the Portuguese work ethic can seem like a slap in the face, a veritable affront to the Protestant work ethic that is so deeply ingrained in our national identity. As we grapple with the idea of putting family, friends, and leisure ahead of our professional ambitions, we find ourselves swimming against a cultural current that seems intent on dragging us out to sea. It’s a disorienting experience, to say the least, but for those who can learn to ride the waves, a newfound sense of freedom and fulfillment awaits, a taste of the good life that can only be found in the embrace of a different work ethic.

The Great Expectations Trap

As the plane touches Portuguese soil, many Americans are swept away by a tidal wave of anticipation, their imaginations fueled by tales of endless sunsets and sipping vinho verde by the sea. They come seeking a life of leisure and luxury, sun-drenched days and sultry nights, dreams made manifest in this captivating country's narrow alleys and terracotta rooftops. And yet, as they delve deeper into the fabric of Portugal, they soon realize that this enchanting land is not without its shadows, its imperfections that serve as a poignant reminder of the complexity of the human experience.
The truth is, Portugal is not some idyllic utopia but rather a living, breathing entity, a beautiful and flawed country like the people who call it home. It’s a place where the ancient and the modern collide, age-old traditions coexist with the relentless march of progress, and dreams and reality engage in an eternal dance of love and loss. As Americans, it’s crucial that we approach our Portuguese sojourn with open hearts and open minds, embracing both the joys and the sorrows that this beguiling land has to offer, for it’s in the acceptance of Portugal’s imperfections that we can find the true beauty of this country, a beauty that lies not in the grandeur of its castles or the majesty of its coastline, but in the resilience of its people and the enduring spirit of saudade that lingers in the air like a haunting refrain.

2023.05.28 17:21 VernonKazama My Mario Kart Wish List 📃

~ 1. Introduction ~
Here is a detailed description of my wishlist for a Mario Kart 9 or 10/X (if Tour is considered the 9th installment) I don't expect everyone to like all my ideas. This is just a wishlist. I obviously would be happy with any Mario Kart Nintendo decides to put out but in a perfect world, this is what I would want for it to be the best Mario Kart imo. I hope you enjoy.

*¹ - All and All Mirror options are only available in Grand Prix. After a Circuit has been selected, It'll play each Cup in order of that specific Circuit.
*² - All race and battle modes will feature either a Solo Dash or the new Double Dash option similar to Mario Kart Double Dash for extra replayability and character combinations.
*³ - Even if not many people liked Automatic drifting, it was there for a reason for you to choose. Some liked it. Some didn't. It should be the player's choice.
*⁴ - Camera can also be changed freely during the race from the pause menu.

*¹ - Added a Pro difficulty to make the CPU feel more of a challenge.
*² - Wanted to split the vehicle selections between Solo Dash and Double Dash drivers. Solo Dash drivers will now only select between Karts and Bikes and Double Dash drivers will only select between ATVs and new Buggy vehicles. *Buggys are essential similar to the designs of the Karts used in Mario Kart Double Dash. ATVs are now bigger in size to help fit the idea of 2 drivers on one vehicle.
*³ - The original Super Mario Kart had 5 courses per Cup so I brought that option back for custom races.
*⁴ - Wanted to make the option available for players. These courses will be excluded from Laps option and be set to default when selected: ⁿ⁶⁴ Wario Stadium, ⁿ⁶⁴ Rainbow Road, ᵍᶜⁿ Baby Park, ᵍᶜⁿ Wario Colosseum, ³ᵈˢ Wuhu Loop, ³ᵈˢ Maka Wuhu, ³ᵈˢ Rainbow Road, ʷⁱⁱ ᵘ Mount Wario, and ʷⁱⁱ ᵘ Big Blue.

2023.05.28 17:19 incremantalg Words of wisdom from an older fart

I'm 50 and have been riding bikes in one form or another since I could pedal. As a kid, I often rode pieces of junk that I scooped up at yard sales for like $5 or less. Doing stuff like strapping a life jacket to the handlebars and jumping off of docks into lakes. Riding for hours with friends...going way farther from home than we should have...all that fun stuff.
My advice to anyone looking for a bike is to just find a bike that's comfortable and ride. Don't get caught up with tube angles, brake specs, frame material, handlebar alloy types...etc. Don't fret whether or not there are pedals out there that will reduce your ride weight by a couple of oz. Don't convince yourself that you need the latest geometry or else you're gonna die on a technical section. If you find a bike with caliper brakes, don't convince yourself that you can't stop unless you upgrade to disc.
I'm not knocking the benefits of high end gear...I love that stuff. But, as someone who has been riding for 45 years and who is helping his 11 year old overcome all the latest tech specs and hype, I wanted to give some old man advice. Just find a comfortable bike and ride.

2023.05.28 17:14 Outrageous_Neat_6232 Maladaptive Day Dreaming saved my life

My journey with maladaptive daydreaming, which ultimately helped me reshape my reality, is one that still amazes me. I was born into a comfortable lifestyle, thanks to my diligent immigrant parents from India. We were by no means extravagantly wealthy, but I would categorize us as comfortably upper-middle-class. As an only child, I was blessed with both material comforts and emotional support, particularly from my mother, while my father was often tied up with work. I had a blissful childhood, filled with positivity—after all, what did I lack to be anything but happy?
Teachers praised my upbeat energy, and I was adored by my peers. This positive ambiance continued until high school, and that's when my world flipped upside down. With adolescence came an intense focus on appearances. While I was of an above-average build, two things changed the way people perceived me: my distinctive greenish dark skin tone and my short stature, measuring at 5'2".
Suddenly, I was facing harsh judgments based on my appearance. Once friends, the popular kids began mocking me with stereotypes, using phrases like "tech support" or calling me Ravi. Teachers' empathy seemed to have dwindled and I was held to a stricter standard than my peers. Some girls, although a small percentage but significant enough for my teen mind, judged me instantly and even labeled my father unfairly.
Even though I was aware of my privileged background, I couldn't shake off the belief that I was "ugly". To counter this, I tried to play up my jovial personality, but its appeal seemed to wane as I aged. That's when I found solace in maladaptive daydreaming.
In my dreams, I visualized myself as a taller, white man who commanded respect. I even started using an English/American name in classes to fully immerse myself in this fantasy. Gradually, I began to adopt the mannerisms and personalities of these imaginary figures, ensuring I emulated only the admirable traits and avoiding any hint of misogyny or ignorance.
My fantasies weren't limited to mere mannerisms—I aspired to be those white men. I indulged in activities like skiing, hockey, horse riding, and lacrosse, all the while maintaining my STEM foundation. I underwent skin-lightening procedures, adopted their hairstyles, and even opted for cosmetic surgery. The result? I started resembling a mixed-race individual.
Still, hobbies were not enough. I decided to mimic their lifestyle, from their high-paying jobs to their sophisticated vernacular, even down to their attire. My transformation was surprisingly effective. Though not everyone altered their perception of me, a substantial number began appreciating my unique blend of intellect, athleticism, and charisma.
Fast forward a few years, I have made considerable progress. While I haven't found romantic love yet, I have a wealth of friendships, a comfortable income from my STEM background and interest in sales/banking, a beautiful home, and the luxury to pursue my interests such as traveling and various hobbies.
The desire to materialize my fantasies has greatly shaped my life. I have managed to harness maladaptive daydreaming, insecurities, and ambition to propel myself in this competitive world. The absence of a romantic partner has been significantly compensated by the enriching experiences I have had with friends and family.
I have come to appreciate the beauty of my ethnic features, though I had to change outwardly due to societal biases. I take pride in my appearance now, with a few cosmetic enhancements and skin-lightening procedures. In a way, I likened my transformation to women wearing makeup or styling their hair—it's about enhancing appeal and it did work for me.
Despite the initial insecurity, I have leveraged it to drive myself to where I am now. And that's the story, I used this disorder to leverage my own reality.

2023.05.28 16:52 themanthatrambles Yes I wrote a book and most likely it doesn't have a point so if your bored have at it!

As I get ready to start my day on this wonderful Sunday. I’m heading to work because someone called out to cover a shift. My wife is getting ready for work as well, which is usual because when you run your own small business it’s just as hard finding people to work and she had someone call out too. I’m not going to sit here and complain and bitch because of the state of the economy it’s just fcked up. Everyone wants to restructure and make things easier and employ people to do things on their own or be simplified by a machine. That’s just the way the world is, just wishing I knew where the damn work ethic went. News flash people are lazy and now before anyone goes on their empowered bitch session calling out whatever they can or making justifications. Here is the reality you have great workers, good workers, ok workers, bad workers and people that just don’t give a shit. I’m not coming on here to bitch and complain but to tell a story and a true one at that. I will ramble on, and people will bitch about that too! Anyways on to my story and for the record I’m aware this is too long and only like 1% will read it fully and to you good old VZ maybe one day but this is even beyond you, but you played a big part. I wish whole heartedly this business would change, and customers would change, and the world would change, cause for fcks sake people need to freaking hug each other. Also, for the record I’m generally just an honest hard-working dude that gives a shit about everyone around me and my heart bleeds through my sleeves. I have done my best to just show people there are just good people out there!
So anyways here’s my damn story and my frustrations which overflowed yesterday and to start this story let’s start with some changes and effects. The easiest way is to start this script for a shitty movie because I can’t shut my trap. Anyways I was talking to an employee a few weeks ago that has been in this industry for a lot longer than me for the record. I would say they are from the bag phone age. I started 18 years ago selling flip phones with no color and every phone had a different charging port. I have always been a fixer and if you have been in this industry and have grown with it and you have a general understanding people will come to you for help. Now I encourage people to ask me questions and for help there is no better feeling than taking care of a customer or employee that is a little lost and being selfless about it. Just for example a customer came in recently that lost her son 3 years ago. She had a voicemail saved and didn’t want to lose it. I assured her that I got her covered. A long time ago before this wonderful age of tech. The solution here was to hook up a mini tape recorder, play the voicemail, and record it on the tape. For all you young pups it’s those square things with brown film running through it. So, I showed her how to email the voicemail and then helped her save it to the cloud. I completed both and played the message, I comforted her knowing as we go through this process, she’s going to get emotional. I didn’t try to sell her anything, my goal was simply for her to know that no matter what happens to her phone or her service that she can hear her son’s voice and she won’t lose it. Now for all you uneducated sales people sometimes it’s not all about making money, but it will result in money. Here is the fact and I guess the moral of the story. While I didn’t make a cent today, I made a feeling for someone. I showed that I cared and took care of them. Now when they go into a store or call customer service for something, and they don’t get treated right or someone somewhere bitches about there cell phone service to this nice lady she is going to mention the nice gentleman and what store he’s at. So, say what you want but that’s a strong lead in my book. Anyways off this exit and back on the road. This employee knows I will help figure out the issues and since we lost our account managers our direct connection to the good Old VZ was cut, that the days of fixing the issues are limited. I had to tell them that are days of going above beyond are ending and there are going to be situations where we just can’t do anything. Mind you this isn’t because it is not possible or that it’s the wrong thing to do. It’s because the person on the other end of the phone these days is comparable to having a toddler come up with a business plan for a fortune 500 company and it work flawlessly. This isn’t the CS reps that have been around and know the system and care about people. This is Jake that has you repeat yourself ten times over while he’s talking to bobby and frank trying to figure out what the hell they are doing. For the record, outsourced names have been withheld because they get to choose it on their first day of work in outsourcing. When I informed this employee of CS outsourcing more, well it was the same look my mom gave me when I came home one night with my ear pierced and bleach blond hair.
Now I started with the big old red many moons ago. I was supposed to transfer states with what used to be a fantastic company that was the epicenter of customer service (oddly no longer around) decided that money had a shit ton more value than people and my column in excel got lost. I was supposed to go to that home office in the new state and have a store all set to start at. Yeah lol no one had a clue of who I was, and something got lost along the way. No biggie just 6 years of blood, sweat and tears. So started my 18 yearish journeys indirectly with VZ. Back then you could do well for yourself to start a company and open a VZ store. There were small companies, medium companies and large ones. It was a different world where customer service was king and VZ was the shiznit! Now I’m biased here but sold the beep beep, the Nokia snake game, the sidekick! I had experience with it all. Man was I nervous from what I came from starting from the bottom as an employee coming from being the go-to manager. I could write a top selling book about these 6 years that formed me. Maybe if I get upvoted enough that could be a career path as the masses are typing TL/DDGAS/CRC. Lmao typing that just let me know how my dad felt when we were laughing as he was moving the Nintendo controller trying to move the person on the screen. Oh, that’s just fcking great damn I’m old lol. Anyways I learned that leaders and mind you leaders and managers are too different things folks. I saw selfless caring people that ran a great business and to this day even with all the bullshit treat every customer like family. Seriously don’t people fcking miss that when you walked into a store and got a smile instead of someone looking at you like your wasting their time. Yes, I know I said I wouldn’t bitch anyways back on track. I learned how to make money feel good about yourself and other people recommended you and it just went full circle. So that is how I have tried to run my business. That was the start of my journey which brought me here to make a long ass post that no one will read because I want people to give out more fcking hugs! Lmao!!
The paragraphs are for the one commented I have potential this was the next chapter I appreciate you!! I hope you’re enjoying this one! Anyways off I went and started the same cycle moved to another state and there was a lot more than just Big 5 back then and I had the experience of managing a store and enjoyed what I did. So, I started with another small VZ company and shaped the last 12 years of my career. I have had a blast and I love the company I work for which is one of the Big 5 cause that’s all that exists these days. I was fortunate to be able to continue with the same values and teach and show a bunch of people along the way. The crazy thing is you wouldn’t imagine the things you come across in this industry. I have had people threaten to kill me multiple times, had people throw things, knock over chairs, there have been multiple bathroom accidents on the sales floor, lots and lots of crying, some picketing here and there. I mean just why people. I had someone threaten to try to destroy one of my stores by bashing it online and to everyone he knew. The reason was for a phone he had over the warranty of a year, and he wanted it replaced. Now I kindly told this man what to do and how to handle his situation I also said if you want to bash my store because I am doing everything I can to help you please go ahead. I am confident in my ability to provide service. You know because well I haven’t done anything else, and I truly love what I do, and I wouldn’t leave the industry. I will put up with any bullsh!t and I will do it for that nice lady that just needed someone to care and save her voicemail. Now on to the last paragraph and if you made it this far thank you! I also realize at this point I am just bitching lol.
Anyways here is the thing we are in a service-based industry. If you slowly take the ability of providing service to the service-based industry it makes it super freaking difficult. So here are the realities people need phones, they need stores, they need customer service. It’s not a want or a luxury, there is a shit ton of need. We can’t change any of it, nothing you read or that I wrote will make a difference. So, I guess I’m asking myself was there a point of all of this and thinking of Eminem lyrics of Stan lmao. Did I just do the same thing that I am bitching about a lot of bitching. I guess I do not know what the hell I’m reaching for and joyfully doing it on a public forum lol. So, I guess the point is if you read this long as fucking post there are good people that generally care. Slow the fck down and ne nice try to understand that everyone has sh!t going on. So, if you read this or just scrolled to the bottom cause its to fcking long be a little nicer today cause this post will be seamlessly lost among a bunch of other posts. To you shady reps out there that give the industry the name it is be a little less shady today maybe care a little. As I’m getting judged now lmao for those companies that push your people to be shady… well you probably won’t see this. To big VZ you control it all you squeezed the juice out the lemon. You’re going to and will continue to drink the lemonade. I will continue my journey and ultimately this is how I support my family. I’m going to continue what I do and I’m going to enjoy it. It just sucks that it gets harder and it’s not that it gets harder because it’s harder work. It gets harder because people make harder work to make more money. Have a wonderful day folks! All you great, good, ok workers and the ones that show up thank you. I guess even you shitty people too cause in the end you don’t control that either as long as you show up as well. Peace out said the rambling man!

2023.05.28 16:49 Dapperdaners Finally finished my dream lodge

Finally finished my dream lodge
We used a picture of another awesome lodge that was posted a few weeks ago as a sort of template to work off of (picture on the right) so not all credit goes to us but I’d like to think we expanded on it rather well. Very happy and proud of it :) it’s on the top of a hill that is home to not only the merchant but also a bunch of other buildings and set ups like a chicken coup and the castle that you can see in the third photo. I’ll probably make a tour post soon covering the whole area but I’m waiting to decorate the lodge before doing that. (I need to progress to get black marble for some of the decorations and furniture I want)
Anyways lmk what y’all think! :)
