Reconnect Retreat

Make space to reconnect in Mindelo

Portugal Mindelo donation

Mindelo is the starting point for a visit to Reconnect Retreat, whose address is on the second floor of Tv. Álvares Cabral 79. The retreat’s practice tradition and session format are best clarified with the host before making plans. It runs by donation, so ask how contributions are handled alongside questions about upcoming dates, meals and overnight stays. The address gives you a precise destination in town, while the details that shape the experience are worth settling before you travel. For independent travelers, that leaves room to plan a visit around their own schedule; anyone working with limited time will want to confirm the arrangements first. Francisco de Sá Carneiro Airport (OPO) is about 8 km from the center, making it useful to check your onward route before setting out.

Highlights

  • A retreat named around the idea of reconnecting
