Grind your own corn in a traditional mill. Learn ancient techniques of Portuguese rural life. An authentic, practical and cultural experience at the farm.

Step inside a welcoming family home in Porto for an intimate Portuguese food experience hosted by a local chef in a charming 1940s townhouse with a private garden. More than a traditional Porto cooking class or home-cooked meal, this storytelling-led experience brings Portuguese gastronomy to life through authentic recipes, hands-on cooking, and the fascinating history behind each dish, from the Age of Discoveries and Al-Andalus to royal and convent traditions. Ideal for travelers seeking unique culinary experiences in Porto, you'll enjoy authentic Portuguese cuisine while connecting with local culture, history, and hospitality in a private home setting.

This isn’t just a painting class — it’s an escape into the quiet beauty of rural Portugal. Set at a converted farmhouse just outside Porto, this experience combines creative expression with deep connection to nature. Unlike city-based workshops, here you'll be surrounded by rolling hills, birdsong, and sweeping views that have inspired artists for centuries — and still feel untouched. What makes this truly special is the balance of gentle guidance and creative freedom. With over 22 years of landscape painting experience — and having painted scenes around the world — I’ve found that this spot holds a rare kind of magic. You’ll be supported with tips and techniques, but there’s no pressure to "get it right." This is a space to play, explore, and let your style unfold in your own way. Also: all supplies included, a quirky farmhouse atmosphere, and warm hospitality with tea, coffee, and snacks — and you have an experience that’s as much about presence and peace as it is about painting.

This is not a cooking class or a typical farm tour. Guests spend the day on a working small farm and vineyard, exploring practical approaches to food resilience, preservation, self-sufficiency, and perennial food systems. Whether you live on a farm, in a suburb, or in a city apartment, you'll leave with a better understanding of where food comes from, how to build greater resilience into everyday life, and how to eat well even during disruptions and uncertainty. Along the way, guests enjoy a fusion lunch and local wine under the vines while sharing ideas and experiences. The focus is on practical knowledge, meaningful conversation, delicious food, and discovering that resilience can be both achievable and enjoyable. Guests leave with a practical resilience workbook and a clearer understanding of how to build a more self-reliant kitchen, pantry, and food system at whatever scale fits their lives.
