2015 was no exception, and a special reception was hosted by His Excellency Jose De Bouza Serrano, Ambassador of Portugal to the Netherlands. Portuguese expats came in great numbers to show solidarity and affection to their country, together with countless Head of Missions and Dutch Government officials. Many friends of Portugal from the business, Catholic, and student communities were also in attendance, and the enormous Portuguese residence and its gardens were alive with people.
Ambassador De Bouza Serrano took time to talk to every guest, shake hands, and receive warm congratulations from the many attendees at his residence.
