wondering what the job market is like in sao miguel.
my whole family is from there, a lot still live there too.might be cool to live there for a while and get paid, otherwise i'd have to freelance it from overseas.

i was there about two years ago, but i'm not sure what the design market looks like. i'd probably arrange some remote freelance work before you head out there.

You mean market as in "design jobs market"? i don't think so - probably a few shops sharing a meagre market.

(Oct 17 06, 11:17)yeah, sorry... I should have specified i wasn't looking for a first hand account of the cow-milking game. I'm sure that's huge there right now. lol

yup, the biggest thing there is milk and hotels. there's also a growing uni, turists so it might be worth a shot. nothing like a new shop to dust off the old ones. Although it brings the downfall of humanity.

I'm bumping this thread from a couple years ago because I'm thinking about visiting the Azores next month. Does anyone have suggestions on great things to see or do. Restaurants, small towns, specific islands, away from tourists sort of things as well?
Thanks
