I was gladly surprised and honored to fing Maestro Abreu in one of your posts. He is a remarkable person, has a PhD in Economics, was a Minister in previous governments and university professor as well. He just happens to be a lifetime musician and simply a genius in setting up this system that has helped so many young people in our country, many from very himble and poor origins.

We missed you so much at Tesol. I am sure it was not the same without your energy and joy. I did enjoy meeting Rita, Vance, Elizabeth and Christine, though, and had a great time sharing the room and stay with Jane. I am sure we will meet next year. Let`s hope so. Best, Berta
