Church Brewing: where the customers are the congregation and the choir | SaltWireLISBON - Marcia Leandro moved to Portugal from Brazil six months ago with a goal: to train as a chef. But Portugal's housing crisis curbed her dreams and forced her to live in a tent.
Sale prices have skyrocketed 137% in that period, according to housing data specialists Confidencial Imobiliario. "I'm just living here to save money ... I'm here so I can achieve my dream," she told Reuters outside her two-compartment blue tent where she sleeps and keeps belongings. She'd like to rent a one-bedroom flat, but prices are"absurd", she said.
