About me

Olá! 

I'm Sandra, a native of Portugal with a background in education, theatre/circus and history. 

One of my most exciting adventures was performing in Northern France with a troupe that included Cirque du Soleil artists—an unforgettable experience. 🎪 

In 2006, I moved to the sunny Algarve to manage a private school, teaching Portuguese language and culture to the foreign community. 

 In 2011, I returned to Lisbon and took a break from teaching to work at a multinational company. After more than a decade, I left the corporate world and in early 2024, I launched Português Connect. 

🎯 My mission is to promote the Portuguese language and culture globally, helping foreigners feel connected to the Portuguese community.

🌍 My goal, as a specialist in European Portuguese language and culture, is to make learning about the Portuguese language, history, traditions, and gastronomy a fun and interactive experience for foreigners living in Portugal or abroad interested in exploring the wonderful Portuguese culture.

✨Count on me to make you feel more and more at home in Portugal 🏡
