We Simply Had to Move for Our Family's Sake

Zé, originally from South Africa, shares his experience of moving to Portugal and the challenges he faced in terms of cultural differences and integration. He discusses the importance of the expat community in providing support and connection, especially for those with Portuguese roots. He shares his experience of moving to Portugal with his wife and daughter and the difficulties they faced in settling in, particularly with language and cultural differences.
