Força Portugal for investing in its future 💧

In a major step toward climate resilience in a region where drought is becoming the new normal, Portugal is building a new €107.9M desalination plant in the Algarve, a plan that will turn Atlantic seawater into 43.2 million liters of drinking water daily. 💪

Developed by Águas do Algarve and backed by Portugal’s Recovery and Resilience Plan, it’s set to be completed in 2028. 🌍

Thanks to for this graphic and the incredible news!

We really hope that this plan stays on track and gets water to the Portuguese as soon as possible. 🙏

Did you know that Portugal has more single women than almost anywhere else in Europe? 🧐

First things first, women outlive men and the economy in major cities (including healthcare, hospitality, education, and tourism) employs women at higher rates. 🩺👩🏻‍🏫

Portuguese women now also enroll in university at higher rates than men. 📕

Add all these factors together and you end up with cities full of educated, hard-working Portuguese women 💪

Thanks to for this graphic!

We really thought that Lisbon would top the list. 🧐

It certainly feels like it when you see the rent prices and the number of people who have had to move to the suburbs, but Prague you surprised us! 🤷‍♀️

Will the prices ever come down? 😱

Thanks to .magazine for this eye-opening graphic!

Portugal is one of the sunniest countries in Europe and we recently posted about how it has the least ultra-processed food on the continent. It also ranked #12 work-life balance globally.

So why does Portugal take so many antidepressants?

We really want to hear your thoughts because the sunshine, the healthy food, and the work-life balance should help a lot in terms of overall happiness.

What gives?
