    As a Cape Verdean living in London, I really like your video, can I just that the national drink is grogue which is basically rum and has as much as 74% alcohol, caipirinha also create by us but just wanted to say that, great video and accurate information on Sal

    Thanks for this video! I’m looking to book Cape Verde this summer. What hotel did you stay in? And would you recommend?

    • @veryvalerie__
      @veryvalerie__  Před rokem +1

      The hotel by the beach is Odjo D’agua and yes I would recommend especially because the wi fi works consistently unlike a lot of other hotels, there are others that are more expensive like the Hilton which are also near the beach

    Not sure if I missed it, but what airports must we transit to get to Sal? Do we fly to mainland and connect, if so what country?

    • @veryvalerie__
      @veryvalerie__  Před 3 měsíci +2

      Hey so I’m in the UK and there is direct flights through TUI from all airports to my knowledge. If you’re doing a connecting flight then you’d usually stop off in either France or Portugal

      @@ATLsOwn no problem, so yeah you’d probably stop over in France or Portugal then head to Sal BUT, if you see the option to go to Santiago which is the largest island and home to the capital which is Praia, I would recommend there too. If you want more chill and beach’s Sal, but if you want more night life and more to explore Santiago is the place
