Yes, I am certainly leaning that way!
The only reason I would sell is if I wanted a house here in Portugal. I haven't really looked into it properly, but I've seen several nice options locally for around 60K EU with about 1 HA of land, it's tempting!
The additional 50K I'd be able to bank would last me a long time if i were mortgage free!
