Join me in raising funds for cleaner oceans as I take on
On July 19, I'm taking on the biggest physical and mental challenge of my life - 🌊a 20 km open water swim from Lisbon to Cascais, a place I have called home for the past three years.
For those who know me, you probably remember my years as a competitive swimmer. But recently, I have discovered a renewed passion for open water swimming - a space where I feel deeply connected to nature and the sea. That connection also comes with a responsibility. Our oceans are drowning in plastic, and it’s time we do something about it.
So, for the next month, I’m swimming not just for the finish line but for a cleaner ocean.
🌎 I have launched a fundraiser for The Ocean Cleanup, an organisation whose bold mission is to remove 90% of floating ocean plastic by 2040.
🏊 To stay accountable, I’m committing to swimming 130 km in the next 30 days as training for this challenge.
💶 For every kilometer I swim, I’m also personally donating €1—because I want to lead by example.
💙 My goal is to raise €500 by July 19 to support this incredible cause.
How you can help:
-
Donate whatever you can - every euro counts.
-
Share this fundraiser with friends, family and anyone who cares about our oceans.
-
Cheer me on as I train. Your encouragement means more than you know.
This swim is my way of turning personal passion into meaningful action. Let’s clean our oceans - stroke by stroke, euro by euro.
Muito obrigada,
