Maya in Inês’s studio

“Inês let us get clay everywhere and still made it feel like her family’s kitchen. My bowl is the first thing guests ask about.”

Maya R., Toronto

Host’s reply: “Maya, your bowl came out of the kiln perfect. Come back for the glazing class.”

Jonas on the water in Cascais

“We skipped the big tour and spent the morning with a fisherman in Cascais. It was the best decision of the trip.”

Jonas K., Hamburg

Host’s reply: “Jonas, the sardines were on me. Bring the kids next summer.”

Inês treated us like friends of the family. My bowl is wonky and I love it.
