Yes I would like to know about house sitting….i live in Portugal, I speak english french, german, Spanish ….i have cute little Schnoodle - tell me your house experiences😊

My husband and I love watching your videos. We are Islanders from England and planning to retire in Portugal as of early 2025. What we would really like to discuss is the duration of Sumner and winter in Central Portugal to include months and temperatures, from someone who've experienced the different areas in Central Portugal.

Happy Christmas Luise.

Thank you for doing this. I think you said you’re in Coimbra? That was one of the places I was going to visit there this summer. Do you have any information about rental costs and what different parts of town are like? Take care.

Thank you for all of your videos! The car buying process and driving in a foreign country would be invaluable. 🎉😊

Thanks for sharing! Love to hear about the 5 Towns (and several) and of the dogs stories! You didn't want us to say this :) but I do like everything you do on your vlog!! Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄💖🇸🇪

Just to say Louise you helped me with the car tax with one of your videos so I will be forever grateful 🙏 😊

Hi Louise, First, Happy Christmas! Second, could you pin a link to your Patreon at the top of the comments? I watch on a Fire 7 and I can't find a link on my device. Thanks!

Oh dear Luise 😂 So many brilliant ideas for vlogs - how can we choose 😆 I have my first Portugal Petsit coming up in Feb through TH - and with a big TH-cam family who I follow! Excited!! Near Amarante, which is an area I am very interested in. * So - weather & regions is one subject I am very interested in. I have a chart which grades the whole country, winter + summer on a scale of 1 to 3 for each season. I’ve overlaid it onto a map and I check just about everywhere everyone ever mentions to see if it’s in one of the more equitable 😂 Personal experience counts for more imo 👍🏻 * The area around Coimbra is definitely another area I’m interested in so I’d love to know about the recommended towns. And any petsits you may just happen to come across 😉 *Looking forward to your visit to Carpe Diem. That has been a build and a half! Really hope they love the house. My hope is to explore Portugal via house/petsitting this coming year and to decide where I want to buy. Will I achieve that? Who knows, but I’m hoping to get my own TH-cam channel off the ground, being informative and - possibly - inspirational too 🤔 So - whatever vlogs you decide to make in 2025 Luise, I’ll be watching 😎

Yes to it all! You are a great resource to many people Luise, including me.x

Everything has been fantastic. For me though seeing you out n’about Walking locally is uplifting💚. Even though unlikely to self build myself, really interested.. just In case 😅! Merry Christmas & Best of Joy 🤩 for 2025! X💫🪐

How to pay property tax and the different ways to do it would make a good video.

Trusted housesits in the uk someone put housesit but have to pay for own bills while staying at house. I was like get f***ed its part of the situation you shouldn't have to pay for your own electric gas water etc your looking after there house and pets. What do you think of that?

🎄Silver Coast, beach and Coimbra surroundings are very interesting to me, also why people leave, building a house in Portugal (how to insulate and battle the damp!) and tips in general. Horror stories, doggies🐶are also very entertaining. You might have enough subjects for a series! 🎄

I'm in!

I know that feeling when I was in Israel volunteering people would say Boker Tov it was literally weeks before I realized it meant Good Morning when I finally did I was exhilarated because I knew only Toda Raba..thank you😂

sim por favor,linda.

Louise- I want to say anything....I know you said not to. So I want to know about the living. I got here recently and am having an interesting experience- so I want to hear about others. I love the details- motoring, processes for getting (mundane) stuff done(!) AndI LOVE LOVE LOVE the lives.

No offense, but 4 years is more than enough time to learn the local language. You seem really intelligent. Why haven't you learned Portuguese? It's to your benefit. Anyway, I do enjoy your videos. I hope you don't take offense to my comments.

Happy Holidays! 🎄🎉🥳🎊

Dogs, coast and housesitting all will be lovely😁

I'm in😀😋

I love ALL your ideas about the videos you plan to make! As a long time subscriber to this channel, I'd like to say I get so much value from you videos. Also, I truly appreciate your personality - you are a kind, positive and good spirited person (that's how I see you from your videos, anyway) and I find you very inspiring. So Thank you very much Luise! To be specific though, buying a car (an automatic one, I understand it's a challenge), and also the process of renovating a property is very interesting to me. Thanks again!

Your great giving information. I been living in France for 25yrs its a minefield, trying to like you finding out everything, getting through red tape. As these governments want us all to be diverse, why is there not official offices set up to help people in our own languages. From sorting out taxes, to just getting help in general things. But they promote people's moving, yet there is no help in these kinds of things.

Love listening to your informative tales. Interested to join your further discussions.

Wishing you Louise, Terry and Nelson good health and contentment for 2025. I would be very interested in seeing videos exploring Portugal, towns, villages, beaches and walks in general. I am always interested in hearing about peoples stories, moving to Portugal and starting a new life including properties bought and renovated. All the best with the electric bike 💐☺

Merry Christmas 🌲Feliz natal🌲-

Where did you move from Villa Verde. I didn't quite catch the place. You liked Braga, so why did you leave?

Would love to see the towns and villages in your area.

Wonderful video. Tks. Question: you mentioned dogs and adoption in same paragraph. Are you getting rid of dogs ?

Haven’t lost me as a subscriber….sending seasons greetings across the miles and your gorgeous fur boys….would love a tour of your local town if possible/ beach 🎄🌅🌄

Very interesting topics, Louise, all of them. One of my favorites: why did people leave? Love your lives but hard to catch you in time… can you announce them In advance, please? Thanks, looking forward! 💗🐾🐾🙏

The lives are so much fun! Funny, it’s easier to catch when I’m at work. I do work, and I have my earphones plugged in. I can send a message between emails, and documentation at work. Plus, I’ve had the same employer, with a hard working reputation for 26 years. 😁

MERRY CHRISTMAS ✝️🙏❤🇺🇸

YES.....The Silver Coast, beach!❤❤

Do a HORROR Story.😊

I enjoy the opportunity to live vicariously through your adventures in daily life in Portugal. While I think it would be great, not likely to happen for me. Thanks for sharing.

Ya never know what people need, so do what you do!❤❤❤

Overwhelmed... I Relate!!! ❤❤

Thanks for sharing this video Louise. Catching you in the future. I would like to know about shared living almost like a "Golden Girls" living arrangement. Do you know if this type of living arrangement is prevalent in Portugal for single ladies getting older? Also I am curious to know what kinds of seasonings are in Portugal? I like to cook . Maybe you can take us to a grocery store and show us what kinds of seasonings the locals used to make their foods tasty. I wish you and your family and all your subscribers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Healthy New Year 2025!🎉 Stay safe and God bless...

I can relate to getting overwhelmed. I enjoy your exploring and housesitting and doggies. Keep being you.

Wishing you and the boys a Nadolig Llawen a very Merry Christmas 😊🌲🐾🐾🐾🐾

Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays to you, Louise!

The story, trials and tribulations of you and the lovely dogs would be great but then as a dog lover and dog Dad, it goes without saying that I would😅

Louise, I was with you during the last live stream, but YT provided no chat function for me to participate. I have no idea how to fix that if it happens again. I am a subscriber and I've clickeed notifications on, but never receive any. BTW, a couple of other YTers I follow have free patreon set up to create their private network.

I've enjoyed the videos you've posted about your journeys around Portugal and your daily activities while house sitting and looking after Terry and Nelson. Your visits to parks, lakes, rivers and forests have been delightful. Things that have gone wrong have been eye opening (for instance, when your neighbor prepared the chicken your dogs killed and how often the language barrier has been an issue). I'll never forget when people walking along the road by your house kept staring into yours! I've always been fascinated by how people live their ordinary lives in other countries.

I would love to see the 5 towns ( 1 at a time obviously haha) ...and of course the dogs xx And have a very Merry Christmas!

Have a happy Christmas Luise 🎄 looking forward to your subscriber only live... you have my email address 😊

From tea bags tto seeing and looking aftler the do,,gs i like yout talking thanks l

Merry Christmas Louise and of course the two boys 🎉🎉🥳🥳
