Love to see that you're figuring things out. I originally went to uni and got a masters in clinical psychology. I worked for several years as a therapist until I got burned out. I then got training as a programmer and worked have worked in the IT world for about 15years. I got into actively flipping houses and buying rentals 4 years ago. Started visiting portugal 2 years ago and finally bought a multi unit building in Portimao with my brother. Now I'm transitioning again out of IT into full-time real estate. Just keep following your passion and be open to change. Always look forward to your videos. Best of luck.

Love this vlog! 😀It's interesting to see the learning environment of Lisbon. I think the course increasing in intensity each week is a good thing. Your classmates are wonderful. The presentation day is always a little nerve-wracking, 🙂 but I know you pulled through! ☺ Congratulations, and looking forward to the next vlog in the series.
