I am thrilled that I will be among the 40,000 ± members of Rotary International from all around the world that will invade your city next summer for our annual convention. I've been doing a lot of looking at pictures and reading about Lisbon and can't wait to see your part of the world!

Julian,

Should I be in Lisbon during the event I'll be pleased to take you out for lunch and a tour of the city. PM me a month before the trip.

In exchange you teach me about Rotary... don't know much about what you are / what you do.

Cheers, Pedro
