“Quem n\u00e3o viu Lisboa, n\u00e3o viu coisa boa”<\/em>\u00a0,\u00a0<\/em>the famous poet Ant\u00f3nio Nobre once said. “Those who have not seen Lisbon have not yet seen anything beautiful” would be a free translation.<\/p>\n

It is beautiful, the city of light, built on seven hills like Rome and Constantinople. Only the light didn’t appear a lot during our retreat.<\/p>\n

The sun was timid and mostly hidden by a thick cloud cover. However, this did not detract from the exuberant atmosphere in the team.<\/p>\n

But first things first: The sixth retreat was scheduled. Since we work completely remotely<\/a>, these local meetings are particularly valuable for us and a central component of our corporate culture<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After Zurich (2x), Cologne, Hamburg and the Swiss region of Appenzell, the next retreat should preferably take place in warmer climes. Lisbon was therefore an ideal candidate for our team, which only meets in person every six months.<\/p>\n

On the first evening we visited the restaurant Prado, which is mainly known for its tapas specialities.<\/p>\n
