I am Maria João Teixeira de Abreu, 59 years old, born in Luanda and living in Estoril since the age of 7. After 25 years working in business management, I now dedicate myself to this project with the hope of bringing people together, creating moments of good humour and creativity and witnessing the development of each person’s abilities.
