177. Learning Portuguese and Living Abroad, with Anita da Silva

177. Learning Portuguese and Living Abroad, with Anita da Silva

One of the first questions people ask me when they learn I live in Portugal is whether I speak Portuguese. That’s why I’m thrilled to share my conversation on Beyond Better with Anita da Silva, a certified teacher with nineteen years of experience and founder of “Portuguese with Anita,” one of the biggest communities of Portuguese learners that boasts 100,000 students on its social media platforms.

Along with sharing about my language-learning journey, we discuss the impact of learning the local language and how it affects one’s experience as an expat. Anita shares about what motivated her to support expats in Portugal.

People often underestimate what it’s like to navigate life in an area that speaks a different language. And Portuguese is tough to learn! We discuss how language shapes one’s understanding of culture and opens a door to experiencing life abroad more fully.

Anita also offers tips for those relocating to a country like Portugal when they don’t speak the language:

  • Digital tools and platforms to make relocation easier
  • Benefits of a coach or language teacher
  • What happiness in a new country can look like

If you’re considering location independence, this episode gives valuable tips and insights on how to approach a new language when living as an expat.
