Portugal is the Western Cape of Europe and Lisbon is Cape Town on steroids

As electricity and now even water supply issues do not appear to abate in the country, the chat around the dinner table often turns to emigration. Fortunately, vat jou goed en trek is now not the only option. There are many opportunities besides semigration to the Western Cape and leaving for good. The pandemic has opened our eyes to alternatives to being in the office day in and day out. Andrew Rissik from Sable International told BizNews about prospects in Portugal for South Africans considering options to internationalise themselves. According to Rissik, Portugal can be regarded as the Western Cape of Europe and, if you are looking for a city with vibes, Lisbon is Cape Town on steroids. There are also interesting possibilities just down the coast for digital nomads who want to combine coffee culture with surfing and an opportunity to invest in a development in Porto that opens the door to a Golden Visa. – Linda van Tilburg Learn more about your ad choices.
