Yes - we stayed at The Poet's Inn, which is very central. It was a very cute hostel/inn and so easy to walk everywhere. We got a room that had a private bathroom and the staff was incredibly helpful and courteous. I would stay there again!

Oh lucky you!! 🤩 I've never spent that much time there. I would love to do that - I absolutely love Porto and yes, the Douro is beautiful! 😍

@@nouglyduckling Yes, it was amazing, to spend evenings with a view of Douro.

@@trave7644 I can imagine! 😍 I think the Douro is just spectacular - more picturesque than Napa or Sonoma! 🤩🤩

Hi Sergio! I'm sure you can do this - especially if the artisans are actually present and you can explain exactly what you want! 😍

@@nouglyduckling I wasn't thinking about getting something personalised by the artisan himself but doing the decorating ourselves. Wouldn't you prefer a plate decorated by Jax than a professional? That would definitely have more sentimental value. So yeah, that would be nice if that place offered that possibly.

@@SERGIO-cr6uy That's funny you mention that because I would really like to take a pottery class and do that exact same thing! 🤩 I don't know of any around but will need to do some research.

@@nouglyduckling well good luck finding something! I had a quick check on Google: A 3 hrs workshop (in English) for 2 priced at 230€, what a nonsense. Hopefully you'll find something of a better value than that rip off.

So true! 🥰 I am happy when Jax is happy! My actual name is Tricia (not Patricia) and many people call me Trish. Jax is my son's actual name, too. I wanted a unique name for him! 🤩

So fascinating! Thank you for sharing this info! I had no idea about the Bond influence! 🤩I read different reports about Livraria Lello's influence on Harry Potter but one thing is for certain, they are taking advantage of the JK Rowling rumor - Harry Potter is very much on display and there are many sections dedicated just to the books in the store. 😅 And yes... I cannot believe we have been here almost 6 years - an adventure year abroad has turned into us into practically full-fledged Portuguese residents! 🤣😂😍

Nobody's gonna pay for your nonsense advices on FB. Stop spamming small channels with the idea to scam them. TH-cam should study your case & ban you.

It is a beautiful store! 🤩😍

@@nouglyduckling Wow wonderful video. All the videos on your channel are fantastic. But your video views are lower. Because your optimization is very poor. Your optimization needs to improve as soon as possible.,,,....

@@mdrifatkhan749 STOP spamming small channels trying to sell some crap. What you do is a scam.

@@mdrifatkhan749 let me guess you want to sell visibility to small YT channels? And you expect people to fall for that scam?

@@mdrifatkhan749 do people fall for that scam?

Concordo com você. Quando entrei pela primeira vez, fiquei tão impressionado porque havia tantas pessoas. 🤪 Mas com o tempo, me acostumei e consegui realmente apreciar a beleza da loja. Eles têm horários de ingressos para limitar o número de pessoas permitidas por vez, mas talvez devessem tentar restringir o número ainda mais.

Ooh! Please let me know the Goa restaurants! I've never had Goa food. I'd love to try! Thank you for letting me know... and yes, I highly recommend Mr. Lin's! 😍

@@nouglyduckling These three are great and I ate there;:Zuari, Cantinho da Paz, Tentações de Goa; Cantinho da Paz has amazing curry and very reasonable so is Zuri; both very small family run retsuarants; Cantinho da Paz is a Mozambique Indian restaurant and they have amazing lamb curry; let us know how you like them.

@@trave7644 Oh wow!!! Thank you sooo much for these suggestions - I will absolutely let you know when I'm back up in Lisbon and have given them a try! Thank you! 🤤🤤

I'm so glad to hear this!! 😍🤩 Good luck with taking the exam - I hope everything I mention helps! Boa Sorte!! 🥰

So happy to hear! Glad you enjoyed! 😍

Haha! That's true! 😅🤣😍

Thanks, Sergio! Yes - it was a fun club! 🤩

Scambot..

@@SERGIO-cr6uy no

Ooh nice. I will go there when we use the Orient train station. What is the place in Almancil call?

Taste of Asia! 🌟

No problem 😌 - please send me an email to tricia@buenabeauty.com.

Glad you enjoyed it! I’m hardly ever out late at night so it was a treat for me! 😅🥰

Yes! I post a new video every week! Are you subscribed to the channel? I think you get a notification when a new video comes out so hope you see them! 😍

@@nouglyduckling thanks. Let us know how you continue to like it there. I have given up moving there for the time being. because of the problems there.

@@trave7644 Will do.... we never planned to stay here this long (it was only going to be a 1 year adventure abroad) but we clearly love it as we are now heading into year 6... time flies! Have a great day! 😍

@@nouglyduckling would be really interesting to know what you will do after your tax regime expires. I gave up my plans to go there because of that and also because of all the other problems like bureaucracy. So perhaps you can do a video on what your experience of having to pay 40% tax is after the tax program ended, and now, of course, it's not available for the new D7 Visa holders.

@@trave7644 That's a good video and we still don't know what we will be doing once the 10 years is up either. I know there are a lot of financial companies out there touting solutions (esp. for British Expats) but I have not yet investigated. I will let you know when I find out.

Oh wow - I didn't know! That's excellent! I'm sure it looks beautiful! 😍

Oh I highly recommend you guys go and it is £20 to get a grounds ticket and you'll get all the excitement of Wimbledon!! 🎾🤩

I know - I was so surprised there weren't more people because the event was so cool and was €20 so not cost-prohibitive. Maybe more people came after we left because it was a deejay party type thing and that's more fun at night. 🤩 And funny about my hubby - he likes to keep a low profile so you probably won't see him much in my videos! 😅

Ahhh yes!! I've heard such great things about the Feira Medieval de Silves! Thank you for the suggestion!! 😍😍

@SERGIO-cr6uy - we went!!! So cool - they really go all out! I'll have the vlog ready soon to show you but thank you for the suggestion!!! 🥰🥰🥰

@@nouglyduckling Brilliant stuff.. I love medieval events & thought your kiddo might have fun hence the suggestion. We'll have to check your vlog then, enjoy your week 🙋🏻‍♂️

@@SERGIO-cr6uy Have a great week! 😍😍

Haha! I said sketchy neighborhood... meaning you think this is a sketchy neighborhood but it's not! 😅 Yes humidity can be a problem - we are fans of dehumidifiers and use them frequently! 😍

Thank you!! You are the kindest! 😍😘

@@nouglyduckling You are welcome!! You are the pretiest!😉

Thank you! We did it on our own! But, we weren't planning on moving (we were only going for a 1 year adventure) - it just sort of happened! 😅

Thank you! You’re so sweet to send the congrats for Jax! 😘 You must visit Kew Gardens - I had no idea either but I’m so glad I now know!

Thank you! 😘 I thought this exhibit was so well done, too! 🌟

Wow. She is very iconic and all the rage at her time and still to some. I grew watching her and her super models friends.

@@havechopstickswilltravel2990 Yes - an icon! I'm the same as you - I absolutely remember the Supermodel heyday and it was fabulous! 🤩🤩

Sim! Falou um poço de português! 😅

That is so true!! 😅😍

Thank you!! 😍

Yes! instagram.com/head_spa_faro_ns?igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== Her name is Nadia! You will love it! 😍

@@nouglyduckling thank you so much xx

@@Nataliepistaszczuk Hope you enjoy! 😍

It was amazing! It cost €80 for two hours of hair spa heaven! 😍

Thank you! 😘😍

Yes! Lots of activities! It will all be here for when you make your move! 😍😍

Yes! Need to put on your list for gorgeous Portuguese handicrafts! 😍

I'm so happy to hear! Yes it's intimidating and scary to start speaking in a language that is not your own! I totally understand. A lot of it is just going for it and speaking! Please email at tricia@buenabeauty,com for the practice exam. Boa sorte!

Didn't you love it? 😍😍

How wonderful!!! Such a beautiful life! 😍😍

Ha! That’s so funny!! 😂😭

😭😭

Oh good! Please send me an email at tricia@buenabeauty.com and I will send it to you! Boa sorte! 🤩

That sounds so wonderful! Good luck with everything, Nelson! I think that is a smart move and agree with you - life in Portugal is a really nice life! 😍

Oh wow, Nelson!! Good luck! Do you have an attorney helping you? It really is a test of patience and strength to deal with it all ourselves 😅 but I guess I'm up for it because I keep doing stuff like this all the time. 😳😂

Yes! You can organize this private hike with the campsite! It is really gorgeous and I highly recommend! 😍

Oooh thanks so much for the tip. Where exactly is it? 😍

Hi Todd! Great! Can you send me an email at tricia@buenabeauty.com? Boa sorte! 🤩

Obrigada! 😍

It was so cool! I loved the speed and energy - the entire vibe! 🤩🤩
