– 5-day or 7-day retreat –

Portugal offers a diverse natural beauty that creates the perfect setting for your personal growth journey!

You’ll stay in a modern, fully equipped holiday cottage, nestled in a peaceful natural environment.

You’ll also have access to a rental car, allowing you to explore more of the stunning surroundings in your free time.

All the attention on you

How?

During these days, we combine the power of nature — rugged coastlines, fine sandy beaches, serene forests, and rolling hills — with movement and personal coaching. As we walk, conversations, silence, and mindful exercises flow naturally.

And, of course, you’ll have plenty of time for yourself!

On the west coast of the Algarve, each route is carefully chosen to offer you the most relaxing and inspiring experience. Additionally, you have options to enhance your solo retreat, such as massage, reiki, surfing, and/or yoga.

About me

Let me introduce myself. My name is Susanne Ampt, an active and joyful person, born and raised in the northern part of North Holland. After holding various roles in the financial sector, I quickly realized that the entrepreneurial spirit ran in my family, so I opened my first business in the interior design industry.

For years, like many in the Netherlands, we lived a hectic life: running my own business, raising young children, and maintaining a busy social life. We made a bold decision: in 2010, we emigrated to Portugal as a young family.

There, we started a new life and business. The children went to a Portuguese school, and we integrated into a lovely village in a beautiful area on the west coast of the Algarve. Even here, I stayed active on many fronts, constantly busy, always “on”! Yes, I had brought myself with me to Portugal.

After a few years, I experienced a severe burnout, and with the help of various methods and coaches, I went through a beautiful process of self-development.

By reconnecting with my feelings and learning to listen to my body, I now live a balanced life, able to handle challenging situations with resilience and fully enjoy the little things.

Through this journey, I have gained many tools to mentor you as a walking coach on your path. I’m happy to help you achieve your goals!

What a special experience—the peace, the beautiful surroundings, and of course, coach Susan made it unforgettable. Her warm energy and the valuable tools she offers were truly a source of inspiration. Susan has an incredible sense of what’s bothering you and what you can work on, and “can” is the key word here—nothing is forced with Susan.

I had the pleasure of enjoying meditation on the beach, dancing by the sea, and breathtaking walking routes where I truly had time to focus on myself. For me, it was a profound process of “grounding”—from my head to my heart, all thanks to Susan. After several wonderful days, we ended with a remarkable Reiki session, accompanied by the soothing sounds of a water gong.

If you’re really looking to take time for yourself, I highly recommend a few days in Portugal with Susan. Thank you, Susan, for the insightful sessions and your genuine, warm energy. See you next year!
