Surprise weaving workshop with beautiful view - This weaving afternoon workshop was a surprise present from my husband. I had no idea where do we go and what we gonna do. I loved it. Inchi is very kind and friendly teacher. Her lovely weaving workshop in the cabin with a beautiful view and nature around offers an unforgettable experience. The weavings we made are simply the best souvenir to bring back with us. Something we have made during our travels, something what has a deaper meaning and connection.

Learn and discover your creativity in beautiful Terceira - Under Inci’s excellent tuition, even as a total beginner I made my own wall hanging. This will give me fond memories of Terceira and the panoramic views of nature and the Atlantic Ocean from the beautiful terrace. An excellent opportunity to learn about one of Terceira’s ancient crafts. I will definitely be back to learn more!

Creative afternoon in a calm nature environment - Unique experience in a beautiful nature environment. The teacher was highly experienced and passed her knowledge patiently to the student/me. I had a private lesson weaving my tapestry according to personal taste. The combination with cookies, tea and the company of the sweetest house cat made the day perfect for me. The weaving tapestry will surely get a special space in my room back in Germany :)
Thank you for the lovely afternoon!

excellent, fun and relaxing. - I had never worked with a loom and loved the experience. Incï has a very peaceful, comfortable and inspiring space. But the most important thing is her ability to motivate us and she also has special abilities to teach and guide us. in just a few hours I managed to make a loom piece that left me very excited to continue. I loved😍

Weaving in nature - I had a great time not only learned a lot about various weaving techniques but also was able to make my own place mat! Inci is an excellent teacher and her outdoor workshop is in beautiful nature setting with views of Atlantic Ocean.
It was a wonderful way to spend an afternoon, learning and meeting new people.

Amazing experience, stunning views, patient teacher- AWESOME! - Really nice time! Having never done any sort of weaving or handiwork, I thought I'd go for a day to learn how to weave. I found Dr. Inji to be very organized, thoughtful and patient. She has an AMAZING environment that overlooks the ocean with flowers, fruit trees,and stunning views. The peaceful island retreat, complete with a little weavers cabin and covered patio set the stage for an amazing experience. I was shown how to do an interesting weaving project, got instruction on setup and was able to complete my project to take home! Inji was helpful, but let me learn as I went, and she was very understanding and laidback about mistakes that are sure to happen for beginners. The entire day was just delightful. I enjoyed the relaxed and creative process of the weaving so much that I signed up for another day of class. If you have the time to relax, breathe, and do something new + creative in that magical environment, do! It might be the best part of your vacation, regardless of whether you continue with your new skill. It's fun to try something new and have nice people with whom to learn!
