The Franco-Iberian Royals Message Board: Re: Infanta Sofia will be studying in Lisbon

Well, as far as visiting King JC - you might think if Sofia and her mommy can go halfway round the world for a 2-hour "visit" with the Spanish football team in 2023 then surely she can go 30 km down the coast to visit her own grandfather just once. But that's all a matter of their "priorities"...or a certain mother's priority?

Next September, Infanta Sofia will start her academic studies in Lisbon at the Forward College.

The Infanta will study Sciences Politiques and International Relations in a 3 years course - the first year will occurr in Lisbon, the second in Paris and the graduation will take place in Berlin.

Classes will be mostly in english although there will be optional classes in portuguese, french and german.

Interesting to know that the Infanta will be living in Lisbon from September when, at the same time, her grand-father is finishing the renovation works at his new house in Cascais, 30kms from Lisbon.

Wonder if she will be allowed to visit grandpa.
