Good Luck Susana Cardosa new

#Traveltradetogether

This week we wished our valued, much loved, trade partner, colleague and friend, Susana Cardosa all the very best of luck as she concluded her term as director of the Portuguese tourist office in Dublin. Susana made lots of very dear friends in Ireland over the past number of years in Ireland and embraced not only our culture but our very unique way of doing business in our sector.

Susana now embarks on the next chapter in her journey to head up Portuguese Tourism initiatives in Holland and Belgium. We had many great experiences working with Susana in Ireland and of course in Portugal where Susana and the Portuguese tourism team welcomed the Irish Travel Industry to magical Evora for our annual ITAA Conference in 2021. This was a conference like no other as we embraced the reconnection of our industry following a time we shall never forget. No better destination or people to share that experience with.

Although Susana will be sorely missed, I have no doubt we shall continue our friendship and love of all things Portugal and Ireland on and off the pitch. Amsterdam is only a short hop away and we shall meet again very soon. We can’t skip tomorrow.
