Play Slow is a brand that aims to instill curiosity in each family about what surrounds them, promote quality family moments, reduce the screen time, encourage reading habits, and bring urban families closer to nature.

The "Famílias Curiosas" guides already have 3 editions: "Famílias Curiosas in Jardim da Estrela", "Famílias Curiosas in Campo de Ourique" and "Famílias Curiosas in Tapada das Necessidades". I now want to edit the 4th volume about Cemitério dos Prazeres.

>> As a small entrepreneur who has financed everything with her own capital, I would now like to try this type of crowdfunding. Be a #familiacuriosa and help me believe that one day I will create a collection that covers the entire city of Lisbon!

Note: This cemetery has strict rules for funeral ceremonies. Only firefighters, policemen and artists can be buried in their respective plots, and they can only be placed in tombs people who have a family tomb (or who buy one that is abandoned). So, this is the most suitable cemetery for leisure visits as the probability of a funeral taking place on the day of your visit is lower.

About the author

A promotora, Carina Vieira, e a filha num Mercado

Hello, I'm Carina, a Coimbra native that loves Lisbon!
I am the mother of a very curious child who inspired me to create this project  :)
I'm a graphic designer but I'm interested in many other topics. I love reading about the history of places and people. I live in the city but I am passionate about the countryside and nature. I am a bird and tree watcher. I searched my family genealogy and discovered the reason for my surname. I like to see the inside of all the churches and I love visiting museums.
As a mother, I miss programs that captivate children, and that bring some learning in a fun way, that's why I decided to create Play Slow and edit the Famílias Curiosas guides. :)
