Portugal – the world’s friendliest country!

Published on

Everyone dreams of owning property in a sunny country like Portugal, but how much easier is it if the country and its people are warm and welcoming?

A 2018 survey from InterNations, the largest global network and information site for people who live and work abroad, has just been released to the American business magazine Forbes.

The data, supplied by almost 13,000 expats from 188 countries, looked at which countries were the friendliest in the world to live.

According to the survey, Portugal is number one, and has climbed nine places since 2016. 79% of those surveyed said that the Portuguese people were welcoming, 94% said they had a friendly attitude towards expats, 58% said they found it easy to make friends and 47% said they were likely to stay forever.

The top ten friendliest countries are: 1. Portugal, 2. Taiwan, 3. Mexico, 4. Cambodia, 5. Bahrain, 6. Costa Rica, 7. Oman, 8. Colombia, 9. Vietnam, and 10. Canada. Apparently, the least friendly place to live is Kuwait.
