Hi guys I hope you're all right.

I live in Angola, but I am currently in San Antonio, Texas.

I am looking forward to explore businesses opportunities in importing of agricultural products from Angola to the US, taking into consideration the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA), as well as the exporting of electronics products (second hand) from the US to Angola.

I'm noticing a difference between the official currency exchange rate (around 911 AOA/USD as given by banks) and the higher rate on crypto platforms like Binance (around 1170 AOA/USD). I'm considering whether there's a way to profit from this difference.

Has anyone tried taking advantage of the rate gap through currency arbitrage, and if so, what challenges should I expect (like fees, transaction limits, or legal issues)? Also, I’m curious about another angle: could exporting goods to neighbouring countries provide a similar advantage? For example, sourcing goods locally at the official rate and selling in neighbouring markets might yield higher returns if I receive payments closer to the black market rate.

Would love to hear any insights on either approach, especially from anyone familiar with cross-border trade or currency arbitrage in similar markets. Thanks in advance!

Is there any place I can buy a SIM card on Sunday (except the airport)?

Hey guys! I asked some questions on here about gaming in Angola and I am grateful for the answers I have gotten. I have one more question and that is: Does anyone know when exactly video games got popular in Angola? Was it in like 2004-05 or earlier? Thanks again!!!

I am doing a research paper on the different factions in the Angolan war of indepence and and civil war. For this paper, I need to analyze original publications from the FNLA and the UNITA. Are there any online collections of their periodicals? Thank you in advance!

Hey guys! I look at gaming cultures around the world and I am a racing game fan. I have asked all of these questions on different subreddits, simply because I am curious about how each and every single country on this planet experiences video games. I am also curious about gaming in Angola. My questions are:

What is more popular? PC or console?

What was more popular in the late 90s and early 2000s? PC or Console?

What racing game was popular in the late 90s and early 2000s!

What do racing game fans in Angola play today?-(I get it might not be the most popular genre, but for people who like it, what do they play?)

In general, what games are played there?

Thanks for your responses!!!!

Bom dia,

Sou português e descobri que ha um canal infantil chamado KanukaTV. Numa das suas musicas é usada a expressão "Bicolar uma bilada, pitas tu e o teu brada". Pitas tu e o teu brada julgo ser Comes tu e o teu irmão.

Contudo a fiquei curioso acerca da expressão "Bicolar uma bilada". Alguem pode explicar?

I am a Angolan male 24 years old. Born and raised in the Netherlands. Not much Angolan people in the city that i live in and a lot of family lives in Portugal. So im looking for some events to connect more with Angolan people. Preferably in the Netherlands or else close in Europe.

We are entering Angola at the Southern Rundu-Calai border, and it doesn't look like there are ATMs or currency exchange at the border. Which foreign currency will be most useful until we can get our hands on some Kwanza? (We can bring Euro, US dollar, South African Rand or Namibian dollar)

I'm considering traveling solo to Angola, and I'm trying to gauge if it would be a social or solitary experience. Can anyone recommend hostels/co-working spaces/other places where I'd meet travelers and expats? It is difficult to find these online. I'm interested in finding these places anywhere in Angola.

How receptive would Angolans be of me (outgoing 25yo white male, who speaks Brazilian Portuguese)?

Can any solo travelers share their experience?

I already want to go to Luanda . But what towns, cities and natural beauties should I go to in Andorra

Necessito de recomendações sobre opções de transporte público seguras e fiáveis do aeroporto de Ondjiva até Santa Clara. Conhece algum prestador de serviços de táxi/autocarro/transporte nesta zona?

I need recommendations for safe and reliable public transport options from Ondjiva airport to Santa Clara. Do you know of any Taxi/Bus/shuttle service providers in that area?

Hi, just arrived in Luanda and going to stay a while (until end of year). I get quite bored at home. Anyone know a place to work in the city? A place to open laptop, have a drink and chill.

Meeting people would be a plus, since I'm looking for a job and networking might be a good thing.

Thank you!

Hello,

I just arrived in Angola for work and i am going to stay on the long term.

I vape and I am looking where to buy e-liquid, accessories, machines etc.

Google does not really deliver

Thanks !!

Any club recommendations ? Thanks !

Good day, male in Luanda here with european background look for job opportunities in Angola, finding it hard to get into contact with foreign or otherwise companies, in my experience people stop you from approaching the right people to apply for a position. Anyway if anything pls leave a comment, ideas are very welcome.

Hiya,

I’m travelling to Angola for 2 weeks to visit a friend I met at university. We became bestfriends after living together and I’m so excited. Her family has offered for me to stay with them. They’re pretty well off and have offered to take car with of me in terms of food and transport but I also was advised by my friend to bring £700=$916 dollars to have a good and carefree time while out there. However upon finding out I need a visa I ended up reading that I also need proof of $200USD per day of my stay. That’s over $2000 dollars for my trip which unfortunately is something I simply can’t afford. I’m still a student and I only work part time. I’m also in my second year which is very important and can’t afford to work more than 3 days a week. I know this is a huge long shot but would I be able to talk to somebody in the Angolan consulate/ book an appointment to discuss my circumstances. My friendship has caused me to fall in love with Angola and all it has to offer. I’d hate to cancel the trip over something so trivial as funds I wouldn’t use anyways as I have other expenses to pay for like rent. I wanted to budget my funds significantly anyways trying to have some left over. I’m from a “first world country” however my family is very poor so them subsidising me is out of the question.

Hey there Angolan Amigos.

We are looking for updated information on crossing into Zambia via the Capinde Border via Saurimo .

From what we have seen its all safe sailing until Cazombo at which point multiple bridges are in disrepair.

Is this passage still crossable via 4x4? Any recent updates?

Many thanks!

Hi all! i’m an American looking to do business in Angola. I was wondering if you knew of any pharmacies or stores interested in supplements/vitamins as this will be the main focus. Thanks in advance!

Hello Neighbors! Im planning a trip from Ondangwa (Northern Namibia) to Luanda. I'm considering taking a TAAG flight from Ondjiva to Luanda as it seems the most affordable and convenient option. But this will be my first visit to Angola and I have no idea how to get from Oshikango to Ondjiva airport. I've seen tourists warned about taking local taxis on this page. What safe and affordable transport options are available in Santa Clara? Browsing Yango and Heetch shows no drivers available there.

My other options:

1. FlyNamibia from Ondangwa to Windhoek and then TAAG direct to Luanda. Rather expensive.
2. Macon bus from Ondangwa to Benguela and then another to Luanda. Cheap but really slow and inconvenient.

Please advise. Thanks
