Nicole Echeverria felt increasingly unsafe in the US after the 2016 elections, prompting her decision to seek a new life in Portugal through graduate school.
Echeverria viewed graduate school not solely as a career boost, but as an opportunity for valuable life experience while working in a familiar field.
She strategically chose a business-related master's program at a Portuguese university, meeting her financial and language requirements, facilitating her move.
In August 2019, motivated by her aspirations and savings, Echeverria moved to Lisbon without prior knowledge of the country, believing she could always return to New York.
