From California to Portugal: Rediscovering Home with André Castro

In this episode of Podcast Portugal, we sit down with Lisbon-born entrepreneur André Castro, whose remarkable journey has taken him from the streets of San Francisco to the serene coastlines of the Algarve. André shares how more than a decade abroad shaped his perspective on business, creativity, and the meaning of home.We discuss the lessons travel can teach about adaptability and innovation, how he applies those insights to his real estate and drone ventures in Portugal, and the joy of returning to a slower, more intentional lifestyle. From alpacas that became movie stars to renovating coastal villas and uncovering hidden gems across Portugal, André’s story is a refreshing reminder of how embracing change can lead to purpose and peace.Follow André’s adventures and projects at @andrecastro_pt, @Cali2Portugal, and @BrisaMar_algarve.This episode of Podcast Portugal is brought to you by Revolut Business.
