Is Portugal a good place to move to? For work & to live permanently?

Is Portugal a good place to move to? For work & to live permanently?
I am a travel and tourism national diploma student, my mother is an accountant, we are looking to move abroad in a quite little village somewhere & to travel to work by car. Would like to go somewhere with nice weather & not too far for relatives to travel, Portugal looks ideal however I heard the job state at the moment is very difficult to find work? Thanks

Answer 3 :
Judging by the amount of Portuguese people coming to work over here, I'd say no
Answer 4 :
i heard the work there is very tight at moment. unless your setting up own business and speak the language very good i dont think there much hope...
Answer 5 :
Portugal is a very nice place to live. Yes, there are a lot of Portuguese people living abroad BUT remember that those people move to other places because they do not want to study in Portugal so they move and go other places to have less skilled jobs like clean other people houses , construction works and such. So, if you have your degree I recommend Portugal. Its clean, really sunny and peace full, and people are nice and welcoming ;) And besides, most Portuguese's people speak fluently English ;)
Answer 6 :
Do you think they will like English immigrants? Will they be right to say that they are full and we should stay put?
Answer 7 :
the job state at the moment is very difficult as it is in the rest of europe..
Answer 8 :
