A women's circle in Lisbon · Since September 2026

Come alone, leave with friends

Small creative gatherings for women in Lisbon. Painting, yoga, candles, journaling, and a lot of good conversation. You don't need experience and you don't need to know anyone.

Why ROUND

Making friends stopped being automatic somewhere around the time everyone got busy. Maybe you moved here and the people who know you best are asleep by the time your evening starts. Maybe you've been here for years and watched your people leave one by one. Or maybe nothing happened at all, and you just noticed one Tuesday that you hadn't had a real conversation in a month.

So we started ROUND. A small group, something to do with your hands, and enough time to actually talk. Most women come on their own, and that's the whole point.

The activity gets you in the door. The conversation is why you come back.

Seven rules

  1. 01What's said in the circle stays in the circle.
  2. 02No photos of anyone's face without asking first.
  3. 03Come alone, or bring a friend. Both are welcome.
  4. 04No selling, pitching or recruiting.
  5. 05You can pass on any question, always, without a reason.
  6. 06Leave whenever you need to. No explaining needed.
  7. 07Be kind, especially to the woman who came on her own.

What this isn't

This isn't therapy, and none of us are qualified to pretend otherwise. It's a group of women who also want more connection in their lives. If you're carrying something heavy, please reach out to a professional.

It also isn't networking. If you leave with a new client, great, but that's not why anyone's there.
