Swara
Space where everyone finds their own rhythm
Swara Slow Living Home
The sweet melody of chimes blowing in the wind, a garden filled with organic vegetables that you will taste, colorful flowers at every turn and sun-drenched rooms waiting for you to transform them into learning spaces where your guests and students can reconnect with the rhythm of their soul.
Welcome to Swara, a beautiful events space for teachers, healers, and slow living leaders who want to host intimate workshops, retreats, and training. You can find us just outside of Aveiro, Portugual in Quinta Do Picado, a small village that is the perfect setting for slow living, learning, and self-exploration.
This magical place isn’t just our workspace, it’s our home and we’d love to invite you in.

Our Story
The first vision was my grandfather’s. His vision was to build a home where love and connection could be shared amongst family. He worked his entire life, saving bit by bit to accomplish his dream. The second is my own, born from many years of traveling, learning, self development, and self healing. I was at a meditation retreat in India when I was struck by a vision: I saw myself inviting teachers and students from all around the world to our family home in Portugal to explore the possibilities of their self growth. In my vision I saw my grandfather’s home full of positive energy, transformed into a slow living oasis, but this was far from the reality I knew . . .
