| Avila Spaces launches second edition of Avila SelectionAvila Spaces launched the second edition of Avila Selection, a solidarity wine in which half of the price reverts to the Pediatric Wing of IPO Lisboa. The launch party took place in early December with the presence of the wine's author, Luís Simões, from Quinta Brejinho da Costa, the most renowned Portuguese enologist, Mário Louro and the entire Avila community. Between glasses of wine and tapas, the atmosphere was one of celebration and awareness for a greater cause that unites us as a community every year. Last year we donated 1025€ to the Children of IPO Lisboa and this year we want to reach 1500€ in donations! |
| Oh, oh, oh! It's Christmas time at AvilaThis Christmas Avila brought the community together around the table for lunch in collaboration with our partners, and members, from Rocket. After a year marked by several challenges, Avila wanted to thank those who make us happy every day with a Brazilian lunch that made the delight of everyone, with typical dishes like feijoada.
Thanks to Rocket for the partnership and for the help, and don’t forget: in the new year we'll have more themed lunches from different cuisines. Any suggestions? |
| Avila members learn how to surfNovember is often synonymous of rain, but not this Friday in November when we headed to Costa da Caparica for a surf lesson with our partners from Surf Lisbon. The weather was more than inviting and our surfers were more than ready to get into the Portuguese waves and do the coolest sport in town. At the end we still had time for lunch with our instructor and to elect the best rookie of the group! |
