In this episode of "The Lisbon Expat Show," we dive into the fascinating journey of an entrepreneurial powerhouse from Chelyabinsk, Russia. Our guest grew up in Siberia, graduated with honors in International Economy from Moscow State University of Business, and launched her first business, SMART Projects, in Moscow in 2009. Her love affair with Lisbon began in 2008, leading to a life-changing decision in 2016 to buy a one-way ticket to Portugal, where she met her future husband and never looked back.
Now a permanent resident of Lisbon, she has established two successful ventures: MIKAFE PROJECTS and HORECA PROJECTS. She shares her passion for Lisbon’s beauty, its diverse culture, and the opportunities it offers. Join us as she discusses her path from Russia to Portugal, the challenges and rewards of starting a business abroad, and her vision for the future of the HoReCa market in Portugal.
Tune in for insightful advice on adapting to a new country, embracing its culture, and finding success as an expat. Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur or just curious about life in Lisbon, this episode is packed with inspiration and practical tips.
