Perched on the hillsides overlooking the Rio Tejo, and in close proximity to gorgeous Southern-European beaches, Portugal's capital city is a heady mix of ancient ruins, eccentric street life, and colonial cathedrals. Lisbon is a step into Europe with a laid-back vibe.
One-month Programs
THE Lisbon EXPERIENCE
What is it actually like to live in Lisbon? Where can one month take you? In Lisbon, you are immersed in history the moment you step outside. Together, the group will embark on tours of historic downtown, as well as of Lisbon’s famed food, wine pastries, and explore the country on a day trip to nearby beaches and/or castles. The best way to get a true taste of local life in Lisbon, however, is through skills-based volunteering. Set up a chat with the team to learn more about ‘a day in the life’.
“The lifestyle change in Lisbon was really nice - just taking a second to step back from the go-go-go culture of the United States. You can relax and stroll the streets and I’ll take that mindset back with me.”
“Joining Venture with Impact is truly about the experience and doing meaningful work - the experience of being in a different city and traveling with a group of like-minded individuals who also have a digital nomad lifestyle.”
HOW THE PROGRAM WORKS
Partner Placement
We will match you with a personalized skills-based volunteer opportunity. We match our Venturers with a project based on the needs of our organizations as well as the skills and interests of each participant. Meet some of our partners and learn more about past projects, here!
Global Community
You will live, work and travel with a group of diverse remote professionals. Each week, in a group dinner participants have a chance to try a new local flavor, and get to know other participants in the program. We’ll discuss our experiences from the week and invite guests from the community to join us.
Cultural Immersion
VWI is your cultural insider. We'll help you dig deeper into the local culture by providing you access to the best local events and by offering trips and activities for the whole group. You will also have the opportunity to learn Portuguese through immersion or through lessons arranged by VWI with a tutor.
Accommodation + Workspace
We make working abroad easy. You will live in a shared apartment or co-living space with private rooms (private apartments also available). You have access to a workspace with high-speed internet. All of our apartments have high-speed internet, backup internet, and dedicated workspace suited to working from home.
Support + Convenience
No-fret travel with full support. VWI staff will be available throughout the program, beginning before participants depart for your destination to assist with booking flights, information on visas, vaccinations, etc. In country, staff is available to support for any need.
