In this final episode of Season 2, Tara and Kate explore the fascinating journey of Anna Henriques, founder of the Golden Web Retreat, a healing sanctuary situated near Fuseta, in the eastern Algarve of Portugal.
Anna shares her incredible story, from her origins in Jamaica and New York, to her unexpected Portuguese citizenship through Sephardic Jewish heritage, and her ultimate decision to settle in Portugal. The narrative interweaves historical events like the Spanish Inquisition and Jewish pirates of the Caribbean with Anna's personal quest for belonging and community. Along the way, Anna discusses the vision and development of the Golden Web Retreat, highlighting its natural beauty, spiritual environment, and future plans.
The episode is set against the backdrop of nature, with vivid descriptions of local wildlife and landscape.
