Guys,
Need some suggestions.
Currently I am working in TCS Kolkata with 6.8lpa, technology - Exchange 2010 (which is already out of support from Microsoft).
I got an offer from Infosys Bhubaneswar with 9.3lpa, technology: Office 365.
My hometown is Kolkata.
Hybrid model is okay for me if it is Bhubaneswar as my in-laws won't allow me to move to a different city. Problem is opportunities are very less in Kolkata and TCS won't hire ex- employees. Should I switch to Infosys or stay back in TCS..

Where to stay in the Algarve? Traveling to Portugal with family in Late September and looking to rent a house somewhere on the south coast. Suggestions on which towns to look in? There will be 5 of us, all adults. Hoping to find something within 10min walk to a nice beach and a few restaurants also within walking. Doesn't need to be a big town though. Something more on the quaint side that still has some local charm might be nice. Does a place like this exist?
