AB  - This article looks at the migration of qualified Brazilians to Portugal, with reference to the
impact of political developments in Brazil on migration decision-making processes and their
lifestyle aspirations in the host society. Original fieldwork consists of twenty in-depth interviews conducted with qualified Brazilians in the Lisbon area during 2019. These interviews illustrate how political and economic instability in Brazil contributed to establishing
a strong migration imperative. In this scenario, Portugal is chosen as a destination due to its
perceived social stability and emergence as a fashionable destination for skilled workers, with
the promise of a “cosmopolitan” life. In conclusion, we emphasise the need to consider how
political conditions in a sending society and lifestyle considerations interact in the migration
decision-making of skilled migrants. This approach confronts assumptions that serve to disguise the precariousness of many Brazilian migrants in Portugal due to their relatively high
skill levels and raising long-term concerns regarding the sustainability of lifestyle-oriented migration.
