### 1. Identify User Context First

Role: Tourist, resident, digital nomad, tech worker, student, entrepreneur
Timeline: Short visit, planning to move, already there
Load relevant auxiliary file for details

### 2. Digital Nomad & Expat Hub

Lisbon has transformed into Europe's top digital nomad destination. Key considerations:

D7 Visa: Passive income route (€920/month minimum)
Digital Nomad Visa (D8): Remote workers earning 4x minimum wage
NHR 2.0 (IFICI): 20% flat tax for qualifying professionals (replaced original NHR in 2024)
EU citizens: Free movement, just register with local authorities
See visas.md for current requirements and processes.

### 3. Cultural Context

Portugal is relaxed but traditional in unexpected ways:

Meal times: Lunch 12:30-14:30, dinner 20:00-22:30 (later than Northern Europe)
Saudade: The untranslatable Portuguese melancholy—respect it
Fado: More than music, it's cultural identity
Pace: Things move slowly. "Portuguese time" is real.
See culture.md for detailed guidance.

### 4. Weather Reality

Mediterranean climate: Mild winters, hot dry summers
Best season: Spring (Mar-May) and Fall (Sep-Oct)—20-25°C, few tourists
Summer (Jun-Sep): Hot (up to 35°C+), packed with tourists
Winter (Dec-Feb): Mild (10-15°C) but rainy; cheapest time
Hills + heat: Summer walking is exhausting. Plan accordingly.
See climate.md for monthly breakdown and tips.

### 6. Cost Reality

Lisbon is no longer cheap—it's now one of Europe's most expensive cities relative to local wages:

Housing: 40-50%+ of budget for most residents; crisis-level shortage
Dining out: Still reasonable by Western European standards
Transport: Excellent public transit keeps costs low
Groceries: Reasonable; Pingo Doce, Continente, Lidl are affordable
Hidden costs: Agency fees (1 month rent), 2-month deposit, NIF bureaucracy

### 7. Transit Excellence

Unlike car-centric cities, Lisbon has excellent public transport:

Metro: 4 lines, covers most central areas
Trams: Historic (28, 12) and modern (15E to Belém)
Buses: Extensive Carris network
Ferries: To Cacilhas, Almada (stunning views)
Trains: Cascais line, Sintra line from Rossio
Navegante card: Essential—€0.50 card, load with Zapping credit
See transport.md for complete guide.

### The Lisbon Transformation

Understanding Lisbon requires knowing its recent history:

Pre-2010: Affordable, sleepy European capital
2012-2015: Troika crisis → tourism push, Golden Visa boom
2015-2020: Web Summit arrives (2016), tech scene explodes, prices double
2020-2023: Pandemic pause, then digital nomad surge
2023-2024: Golden Visa real estate ended, NHR replaced with NHR 2.0
2024-present: Housing crisis acute, local backlash against mass tourism

The city you'll find today is dramatically different from even 5 years ago.

### Lisbon-Specific Traps

Hills underestimation — Seven hills are brutal. Wear proper shoes. Take trams/funiculars.
August exodus — Many local businesses close. Worst month for authentic experience.
Tram 28 pickpockets — Notorious. Keep belongings secure. Consider walking the route instead.
Pastel de Belém vs Nata — Belém is ONE bakery. "Pastéis de nata" is the generic name.
Alfama at night — Some areas deserted and poorly lit. Stick to main streets.
Sintra one-day ambition — Pick 2-3 palaces max. Trying to see everything ruins it.
"Local" restaurants in Baixa — Tourist traps. Venture to other neighborhoods.
Rental scams — Never send money before seeing apartment. Use Idealista carefully.
NIF without address — Catch-22 situation. Use a fiscal representative service initially.
Portuguese hours — Don't arrive for dinner at 18:00. Nothing will be open.

### Legal Awareness

Key laws visitors/residents must know:

Drugs: Decriminalized (possession of small amounts not criminal), but NOT legal. Dealing is prosecuted.
Alcohol: Legal at 18+. Public drinking generally tolerated in plazas.
Short-term rentals: Heavily regulated. Many Airbnbs operate in legal grey area.
Tax residency: 183 days = tax resident. NHR 2.0 requires 5 years non-residency.
Work permits: Non-EU citizens need proper visa. Remote work for foreign employer is grey area without D8.
Photography: Generally fine. Be respectful in residential areas of Alfama/Mouraria.

See safety.md for comprehensive legal guidance.

### The Housing Reality (2026)

This deserves special attention:

Supply crisis: Decades of underbuilding + tourism boom + digital nomads
Rent increases: 200-300% in past decade in central areas
Local impact: Average Portuguese salary €1,500/month can't afford central rents
Political tensions: Regular protests against mass tourism and housing speculation
As a newcomer: Be aware you're part of a controversial dynamic. Act respectfully.

### Language

Portuguese spoken: Yes, unlike some expat bubbles, Portuguese matters here
English proficiency: High among young people, variable among older generation
Spanish assumption: Don't speak Spanish expecting understanding. It's rude.
Learning Portuguese: Greatly appreciated. Even basics open doors.
Brazilian Portuguese: Widely understood due to TV/media, but differences exist
