I can’t believe it has been 10 years! Time has a way of passing quickly, especially when you’re busy building something meaningful. But I didn’t want to let this milestone pass by without acknowledging it and thanking all of you for your support and interest in Portugal in Vancouver.
What began as a simple idea has now blossomed into a vibrant and thriving community resource! It’s incredible to see how a small idea can grow and evolve into something far beyond what was initially imagined. Portugal in Vancouver has become more than just a business—it’s a place where people can learn about and celebrate Portuguese culture, cuisine, and community.
Here’s to another decade of success, growth, and celebrating all things Portuguese!
Summer is in full swing which also means Portuguese events are starting to wind down. This short break allows all the amazing volunteers to rest and recharge after a couple of busy months. However, there are still a few Portuguese Things to Do for July 2024, so see my list below and click the link for each event for complete details. I will update it as I discover new events, so check back often. Obrigada!
