About Évora
Évora is a charming medieval UNESCO World Heritage city in central Portugal offering an authentic, walkable lifestyle at a fraction of Western European costs—ideal for digital nomads seeking cultural immersion without the startup-hub energy of Lisbon. The city provides reliable internet, affordable accommodation, and a relaxed pace of life, though the smaller expat community and limited coworking infrastructure mean you'll need self-motivation and occasional travel to larger cities for networking. The well-preserved old town, excellent Portuguese cuisine, and proximity to wine regions and cork forests make it attractive for those prioritizing quality of life over nightlife and modern amenities.
