We are English/ Scottish but Carla is fluent in Portuguese. We have lived here for nearly 10 years. We have a lot of land. We are 20 minutes from Tomar, 40 minutes from Coimbra and live in a rural area. We have 2 bikes here. There are river beaches nearby and we are about an hour away from Nazare beach which is famous for surfing.
