Raphaël Lima: Radical Ideas, Brazilian Free Cities & Digital Nomadism
“I’m not here to be a teacher. I’m not here to be the super technical PhD guy. I’m here to tell stories that people think ‘That was fun to listen to. And by the way, I can remember that story and tell it to everyone again because it was a fun story.. and that has convinced me.”
On the podcast this week we have a conversation with one of our Free Cities Foundation esteemed ambassadors by the name of Raphael Lima.
Raphael is what I would call a Libertarian Influencer. In his home country of Brazil, his daily YouTube show Ideias Radicais has over 650k subscribers. He is also the founder of both the Free Market Institute in Brazil and settee.io which is a company that in their own words ‘helps our customers to live and do business without borders’… in other words, they help people move around the globe to jurisdictions that treat them better.
In our discussion, we touch upon all aspects of Raphaël’s work in promoting the ideas of libertarianism, anarcho-capitalism, and Free Cities. From the importance of getting your ideas out there at a grassroots level by telling relatable stories to the common person, to having a robust plan to bring ideas of liberty into the political mainstream in Brazil, a country which, I have heard from a number of people recently, currently houses the biggest Libertarian movement in the world.
This is one for the digital nomads amongst you as well since I get to dive into Raphaël’s list of top places to relocate to in 2023.
Enjoy the conversation.
