About Abroad Chase Warrington

Peter Benei is the Founder of Anywhere Consulting, and a published author and podcast host, originally from Budapest where he helped create the Digital Nomad’s Budapest group. But these days you can find him splitting his time between his hometown and his favorite country in the world - Italy. Today Peter and Chase sync up for a call from two separate ends of Italy, to explore why these are two great places for digital nomads and expats, and share some of their favorite hidden gems and a few ideas for those looking to settle into either location. They also take a look at Peter’s latest project, Anywhere Italy, which aims to connect remote workers spending significant time abroad in Italia.

A few weeks ago the Portuguese government suddenly announced the intention to end their Non-Habitual Residents (NHR) program - a tax incentive that has lured countless foreigners to Portugal since its inception 15 years ago. This proposal suggests the program will no longer be available to anyone after December 31, 2023, and some headlines seem to suggest that Portugal is no longer in the business of wanting to attract expats and digital nomads. But as I discussed with Diana Andrade, Head of Portugal Immigration at Lexidy Law, this is definitely not the case and there are still many questions yet to be answered. Today Diana and I dive into the changes coming with NHR and a potential new tax incentive coming to replace it. We also dive into the Portuguese Digital Nomad visa and the D7 visa, as well as all the other reasons to move to Portugal, beyond tax incentives.

Matthew Grollnek left California nearly 20 years ago, joined the Peace Corps, and a few months later found himself in rural Zambia sitting around a fire trying to speak Bemba with the locals he now called his neighbors. Fast forward to today and he’s built an incredible life for himself in Africa, currently working as the Future of Work lead at the Mastercard Foundation, traveling the world often with his wife and two children, and taking the occasional weekend trip to the Kenyan coastline and the incredible national parks that surround his home in Nairobi. In this episode we explore Kenya and Zambia specifically, but more generally we focus on subjects ranging from traveling with a family to immigrating to Africa, and the evolution of several nearby countries that are emerging as top travel destinations.
