Portugal is small and during wee-ends coimbra get empty; so use your wee-ends to visit the country!
Both north and south has cities to see and things to do. Not miss Porto nor Lisbon.
Portuguese peolpe is wonderful, they usually speak a good english ('cause they see films in mother tongue) and they know how to receive peolpe. They're always ready to help you, to give tips and to show the beauties of their country.

Generally there's good internet access anywhere you go here and a good way of meeting people is by joining societies. A good one is the rowing society which is really friendly.
