Portugal Friends
Portugal Friends has developed from a need for people, mostly foreigners or Portuguese people who speak English or have lived in other countries, to share their common ideas and interests and enjoy good company. Most people who are not natively Portuguese have come here to benefit from a better quality of life, and weather and enjoy the unique Portuguese hospitality, culture and beautiful country.
Currently Portugal Friends is providing a much needed social element to foreigners living here through ladies coffee mornings. The popularity of these has been so great that since starting one in Ansião in central Portugal in August of 2009, this has increased to 5 by May 2010 and the interest continues to increase. The desire to network, meet 
people of similar cultural backgrounds, sharing the same language, often English and interests is proving to be a boon for many people who were suffering from isolation. Currently Portugal Friends attracts people from England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, USA and not to forget Portugal.
