L3 Aviation Instructor Programme

Hey everyone!

A long time lurker here but fortunately I decided to post.
Brief introduction: Completed my ATPL almost 3 years ago with 91% average Groundschool, no fails and still have a valid SEP/ME/IR.
Haven't had the opportunity of being even offered a position at any of the major airlines in the UK, as I simply havent been called or contacted by any of them.
Had two offers outside the UK, both for B737, but unfortunately they were P2F and I don't have 30,000EUR laying around.

Recently I completed the selection process for L3 in Portugal Ponte de sor, to become a SEP Instructor. Their offer is good however, they are bonding me there for 3 years which i think is quite a lot to be living in a small town in Portugal.
What do you guys think? Deal with 3 years in a small town or try to jobhunt for a more better job as I have heard the trend for employment is increasing this year and even more the next.
Anyone here have any info on the conditions over there? what about lifestyle etc?

Thanks in advance guys.
