BALTIMORE, Sept. 20, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ --
InternationalLiving.com, the retire-overseas experts, is hosting a
Win Your Dream Retirement Overseas Competition, which will send one
winner (along with a friend or spouse) to the Algarve, Portugal—for
a full month in 2022, free.
The prize includes round-trip flights from the U.S. to Faro,
furnished accommodation, plus a stipend to cover living
expenses.
"At International Living, we believe that you don't have to be
rich to live well in retirement—you just need to know where to go,"
says Jennifer Stevens, Executive
Editor, International Living.
"And one of the spots we recommend today is Portugal's Algarve, where retirees can find
excellent bang for their buck—along with sunny skies, friendly
locals, strong infrastructure, and truly postcard-worthy
surrounds.
"Our goal with this Win Your Dream Retirement Overseas
Competition is to show readers—by sending 'one of their own' to see
for themselves—just how accessible and enjoyable life there really
can be."
Portugal is a perennial
front-runner in InternationalLiving.com's Annual Global Retirement
Index as one of the best countries in the world to retire.
Portugal's appeal, for most
expats, begins with the Algarve. That's the southern stretch of the
country running from craggy Sagres in the west to the low-lying
Spanish border in the east. It is a region of wild coastline
interspersed with some of the best beaches in the world.
"A few hours south of Lisbon is
the Algarve region with some of the warmest weather in the
country," says Terry Coles, IL's
Portugal correspondent. "This
region of Portugal has earned its
reputation among expats by providing a resort feel, while at the
same time maintaining the authenticity of this beautiful country.
Scores of golf courses, from easy to award-winning, stud the
coastline."
As the description for International Living's Win Your Dream
Retirement Overseas Competition puts it, the winner: "Must be
willing to relax… enjoy the good life... explore beaches,
restaurants, and markets... take walks... attend festivals and
other cultural events... maybe try a language class... live like a
local... make new friends. The ideal candidate is of (or close to)
retirement age, hails from the U.S., and believes the world is full
of opportunity and that in the right places abroad, it is possible
to live better, for less."
Although no writing experience is necessary, the winner will be
asked to share impressions and experiences with readers of
InternationalLiving.com's magazine, website, social channels, and
e-letters. The ability to create video "postcards" is a plus.
The competition is an opportunity to shine a light on the
real-world experiences of somebody who is considering the benefits
of a retirement abroad.
Those wishing to enter the Win Your Dream Retirement Overseas
Competition 2022, can do so by filling out the written application
form, which asks questions about why applicants are interested in
life abroad. From the initial pool of applicants, editors will
narrow the field to 20 finalists and ask those winners to enter the
second round with a video introducing themselves.
The deadline for entry is midnight
EST on October 18, 2021.
Candidates must be ready to fly to Portugal in 2022.
