How easy have you found wild camping in southern Portugal? It seemed to start off with some issues for us, but we soon settled into it and we fell in LOVE with Sagres 😁❤️ Don't forget to check out our sponsor betterhelp.com/highlands for 10% off your first month of therapy with BetterHelp and get matched with a therapist who will listen and help.
Thank you guys as always for ore fun and happiness!!
Thank you so much Tim 😊 hope you are well!
Those beaches.. 😍 Can't wait to get back to Portugal later this year. Great video, thank you!
You are going to love it 😁
Beautiful 😍
Cannot wait for the season to be over so we can get back out there exploring 😊💜xx
We are already looking at going back next year haha
Just love the Algarve coast. Been there many times & hope to return soon. Keep posting Guys, cheers, John.
Such a beautiful place! Can’t wait to share our trip next weekend 😁
I felt your sense of awe experiencing the portugese coast . Its magic ❤
It’s such a beautiful place to road trip 😍

Stunning - and, yes, quite Australian-esque... but at risk of sounding a bit to 'aunty' I did worry that you lost a lot of water as you did that fill-up! Never leave a hose unattended guys. Water is faaaaar too precious. Lecture over. Hugs frae the Clydeside. YAM xx
I love watching your adventures. ❤
Aw thank you 😁 glad to hear it
Lovely views. You guys really are living the dream.
We are very lucky 😁
We have seen the western beaches of Portugal from flight level 350 on way to the Canaries...nice to see them at sea level.
Hi guys, great vlog stunning views, well done again. We’ve been around the area back in 2020 when Covid kicked off and we escaped from Lagos on the 19th March not knowing if we would get back to UK. We did👍 but it was a weird trip with very few vehicles on the road all the way to Calais for a DFDS crossing, bless them. Looking forward to your next video further East. Cheers and don’t forget to change that pump filler for a locked filler cap much more user friendly. You can still use a pump with an open end hose and extend the lead to run it from a ciggy socket in the cab. You can fill with watering can, hose or pump with hose.🍺🍺🍷🍷Mike.
Glad you enjoyed it 😁 thanks for watching!
Awesome glad you de stressing can’t wait for next week maybe a hour long one 😂xx
Thank you 😁 safe travels!
Looks stunning. Went to use ours which has 170litre water tank which had a hidden feature. It's a carpet cleaner and floor wash. Only in the winter when it froze and popped a pipe off.
that would be amazing for water! But what a nightmare in the winter
Feeling that sun ❤❤ my good lady has started asking has another video been posted I'm sure she wants to do this stay safe 🎉🎉
missing it now haha hope you are well!
Another ace video guys xx
Thank you for watching 😁 glad you enjoyed it!
@@highlands2hammocks you always put out ace videos xx
Another nice one guys. Lovely big beaches. A bit like WA.
Thanks guys! Yeah I can imagine the beaches are amazing 😀
Be careful with that shower head. I bought one and after a month the shower stopped working. They are not always compatible and I ended up buying another electric shower before identifying the issue. Great vlog!
Thats interesting! Thanks for the heads up 😁 still working not with no issues though so fingers crossed
Hi guys stunning place ☀️🏄
Sure is 😁 thanks for watching Steve!
Watched it at 0.75x to understand her 😂 get deeeown, get dewwwun again 😂😂😂

Nice, one guys… Shopping in Lidl on a hangover… EPIC 😂…!!

Yeah it was a beautiful place, especially at sunset
Fab vlog 🎉❤ can I ask about Campbell's clip on shaes? 🤣 My hubby is after the same thing 🤔👌

This looks fab. What time of year were you there? We're thinking of going mid feb 2024. Thanks @KissisAdventures
We went in spring and the temperature was perfect ☺️

Haha thats the spirit! Thank you
Looks like ye did settle in well. What views, so beautiful, exactly as ye said, why ye do this, dinner on the beach. Delighted ye are enjoying the great weather.
We already can't wait to go back haha! Hope you are well
@highlands2hammocks bless you both. Sorry haven't been on much,been up the walls here,not letting up anytime soon. Looking forward to catch up what you two have been up too.
Yay! Swimmin'!
Another great video, Where was the park up near Faro? We are currently in Benicarlo Spain and heading that way in a few weeks. Thought our paths might cross but I think you said you are heading for Lisbon soon.
Sorry for the late response! Hope you had an amazing trip 😊
@@highlands2hammocks sure was, it makes you realise how expensive scotland and the UK is.
Looks so beautiful ....put about the anti campervan signs ...
Yeah it’s a real shame! Luckily we managed to find a few spots that were welcoming ☺️
Hi Both, its been a while since i popped onto your channel but the complete gut out and refurb of our listed cottage has taken up so much of our time..and emptied our pockets in the process. We now have our van and will be heading to Spain and Portugal for 16days over the xmas period. Just wanted xmas with a difference and the need to get away at short notice! Have ye still no got Gemma on the beautiful rich darkness of the hallowed Coffee yet?
Aw how exciting though! 😁 hope you have a cosy winter in your new cottage 🥰 yeah Xmas with some sunshine will be nice! Not yet haha but we are getting there 😂
Wonderful guys! I'm a little further away in Tahiti......it's not van life, bjt it has it's compensations!!
Haha wow that will be amazing 😁 enjoy!
we found traveling and wild camping in Portugal very easy before that con happened to the world and everyone went mad thinking you were going to kill them if you sneezed or did not take the government poison. sagres was great staying at the fort car park.
It was easy up north and got harder the further south we went ☺️
probably become harder in the Algarve because of the covid BS as we were practically run out of town when it all started. nice and friendly one day then all change the next. just goes to show how easy it is to brainwash people to hate others. now i know how the Germans got away with it in the war, demonize those that are different or have another view of what is happening. covid showed me you cant even rely on family once the government had poisoned them against you. maybe yu had problems because of the time of year you went as during the time we were there jan feb march april we had no problem finding a park up, although did get the knock once at a car park at forte de almadena. great times lol. wish i could trust the world to do it again but with having to leave our van in portugal and not wanting to be stuck again we are reluctant to take the chance again. grrr enjoy your trips and i will enjoy them with you
You need therapy doing van life? I thought the whole idea was to get away from all the stresses of home/work life by doing van life!
I guess life will always have its stresses 😅 we run our own business on the road, which leads to some very unique pressures that it is difficult to relate to other people with. Our therapy helps us to discuss it with someone else who can listen and provide advice when needed
The person questioning someone else's desire to get therapy....THEY are the one that should consider therapy. Maybe your post was in jest but man....harsh.
I've tried to understand your English. Probably for your town /region very "normal". But for someone like me... English is my third language... your prononciation is difficult to understand.
I quit.
It's a pitty.
that water was cold i know been before you too look like you are having so much fun keep it up love the video great insight to van life Portugal done France and some of Spain
Thank you for watching
