First of all, the biggest feeling after immigrating to Portugal is the language problem. Portugal uses Portuguese, and you must study hard to master it. Portuguese is widely used all over the world. It is not difficult, but it is not simple. Many China people who immigrated to Portugal through investment, because they don't live in Portugal, learning Portuguese may not be so important to them. But for many immigrants who plan to stay in Portugal, it is still very important to master Portuguese. Portugal has no uvular, so it is a relatively simple language compared with many small languages, but it is also a language that you can't learn without careful study, so you must try your best to master Portuguese. And living in the local environment is also very helpful for learning a language, so you must communicate with the locals in simple Portuguese, and finally you will learn the language well. This is the first aspect of Portuguese immigrants' feelings.

It is also possible to try other careers in Portugal. Because for Portuguese immigrants, it is possible that senior intellectuals may eventually choose to drive taxis, and engineers may eventually work in hotels. Because when I first immigrated to Portugal, I might not find a job that suits me. At this time, you may have to try other occupations to make a living. This is normal, of course, you can continue to work hard to find your favorite job. Another unexpected aspect of Portuguese immigrants' feelings is whether they really live in the Chinese community in Portugal, which is different from many people's imagination. They think that all immigrants should be Portuguese, but in fact, they still live in the Chinese community in Portugal, and their close friends are all from China. But you can also try to make friends with different people.

The last feeling of Portuguese immigrants is that making friends with Portuguese is not what I expected. Many people think that they will meet many Portuguese friends after living in Portugal, but it is not only a language barrier, but also a great cultural difference. In particular, some people may have some xenophobic ideas, so it is not easy to make friends.

To sum up, this is how Portuguese immigrants feel.
