About

At Eco Life Experience, we believe that the best way to learn is by doing. Our workshops reconnect people with traditional skills, sustainable living, and the simple pleasures that come from creating something with their own hands. Whether it's baking bread, growing food, natural crafts, or exploring Portugal's rural heritage, every experience is designed to inspire a slower, more conscious way of living. Founded by Sofia Fonseca, Eco Life Experience was born from a lifelong love of nature and a desire to help people reconnect with the planet through meaningful, hands-on experiences. After a career in tourism and marketing, Sofia created the project to encourage more sustainable lifestyles by bringing people closer to traditional knowledge, local communities, and the rhythms of nature.

    The place was lovely. We were guided step by step by Pedro, who answered all our questions and encouraged us from the very beginning to try the recipe at home without fearing failure. From understanding all the specificities of the bread-making process to tasting a warm, delicious loaf fresh out of the oven with butter, this experience was truly unforgettable. I left not only with a freshly baked loaf but also with a lot of new knowledge and the confidence to bake my own bread at home.

    I had a gorgeous time learning about sourdough-making. Pedro is clearly very knowledgeable. One note for the teacher is, it would be worth giving a paper with the recipe at the end. Other than that, we each walked away with our very own sourdough bread baby and I’d recommend it :)

  • Beautiful location to learn bread making from someone so masterful at their craft. I'll definitely be taking what I learned to my home bread baking. Best bit was eating mountains of warm bread and butter at the end!

  • Para introdução ao tema, creio que foram abordados todos os passos para a iniciação a quem quer fazer pão em casa. Obrigado.

  • Pedro is a knowledgeable skilled baker. Cooking in a wood fired oven adds a whole other dimension. The take home gifts of a freshly baked loaf and sourdough starter are wonderful.
