17-22 March 2025


“There’s always room for a story that can transport people to another place.”

J.K. Rowling

‘Sintra is Europe’s most beautiful farewell, when it finally meets the sea’ Vergílio Ferreira

Sintra and its magic will host another International Seminar on Fairytale and Storytelling Therapy organised by Moonluza. This time a very special one as it will be the 10th Anniversary of these gatherings!!!

Our 10th gathering will take place from 17 to 22 March 2025 and for the last time (at least for now) in Sintra. It will be a closure of a decade, of a beautiful chapter. The next Seminar will only take place in 2027 (location yet to be determined).

It will be another opportunity to bring together specialists, academics, therapists, storytellers and other enthusiasts of fairy-tales and storytelling, and their therapeutic and healing potential.

Due to its international character the Seminar will be held in English, however during our Storytelling evenings all languages and all stories are welcome…

About the Organiser

sintra5

Adriana Jurczyk Duarte took her Master’s Degree in Philology at the University of Wrocław, Poland. For the last thirteen years she has spent her life on the Sunny Coast of Portugal with her husband, daughter and two dogs. She divides her life between Portugal, where she lives and Poland, which she misses. This nostalgia led her to discover and actually experience the fairy-tale therapy for herself, through writing a fairy-tale based in legends from her home village and mountains. Writing the story was her way to travel back to her home mountains, forests and rivers of beautiful southern Poland. Letting imagination run free, it made a bridge between childhood haven and her new homeland of Portugal and the magical, inspirational town of Sintra, which she fell in love with.

Creating her own fairy-tale became her therapy and helped shape her own place in Portugal, which is her cultural and touristic company ‘Moonluza’. One of Adriana’s first and dearest projects is the International Seminar on fairy-tale and Storytelling Therapy, based, of course, in Sintra….
