Hi! My husband and I currently rent in the UK and have two young children. We dont have much in the way of qualifications although I have years of customer service experience and my husband has worked in project management for the last couple of years. He is also studying CCNA which, hopefully, he will have completed successfully this september. He happens to be portuguese too so is obviously fluent in both portuguese and english, I on the other hand am taking portuguese lessons as my knowledge of the language is very basic.

Our children do not yet attend school (3 year old and a 6 month old) but they would need to be able to have access to a good education system - either an english speaking school or portuguese - and my daughter, who has just had a cleft palate repaired, has speech problems so we'd need very good speech therapists/healthcare professionals to help her.

Basically, in a nutshell, are we likely to get on well living in portugal, just as well as we do here (ie, just getting by lol!!)? And where is the best place to try? My husband comes from Madeira and came over to the UK when he was a teenager so he's not too clued up on the economy/education and healthcare systems etc over there. Any help or advice would be very much appreciated.
