Do you like Portugal? Why?
Núria: I like Portugal because I live here since I was born.
João: I like Portugal because the weather is good and there are lots of beaches.
Nádia: I like Portugal because our country is more developed than Cabo Verde, so I wouldn’t like to live there.

Have you ever been to your parents’ home country?
Núria: I have never been to São Tomé. I would like to go there because my parents were born there. João: I have never been to Cabo Verde. I would like to go there, because the beaches are beautiful.

Do you think that your life would be better if you lived
there? Why?Núria: My life wouldn’t be better if I lived there because of the differences among the social classes, which are extremely high.
João: I don’t think that my life would be better if I lived in Cabo Verde but I don’t know why.

Do you think that your life would be better if you lived
there? Why?
Nádia: My life wouldn’t be better if I
lived in Cabo Verde because I love going shopping and in
Cabo Verde there aren’t many
places to do it.
