Hey if you like this video, please give it a LIKE, it helps us out alot. And SUBSCIBE if you'd like to follow our adventure! (WAIT TILL YOU SEE THE LOCATION NEXT WEEK!!!!!)
A long time ago i had comment one of your videos... "...you Rock..." . This year my best friend and soulmate came from Canada for good to Portugal after 24 long years... The best news of the year for me... But another miracle is about to happen! You guys moving to my country! Is my best which to welcome you to this humble and little country. Hope in the future that i can have the privilege of meeting you in person. Has a sailor i let you guys here an invitation do came sailing in one of the best spots in Portugal. Aveiro... In life, health and happiness, i make my deepest which for all of you. Strong hug... kisses and mini treats... 💪🤘💓
Hey James, I've been subscribed to you for a long time and have been watching you since you prepared the catamaran before you set sail for the first time. With your small and young family, I can well understand that you have gone from sailing to landlubber. Portugal is one of the safest countries, not just in Europe, but in the world. Prices in the interior of Portugal are still affordable and there are some unrenovated buildings, old barns built of granite with thick walls that stay cool inside. My tip: stay away from the Algarve and look for somewhere suitable in the country. There are swimming opportunities scattered all over the country on rivers and dams that will cool you off. I've already toyed with the idea of going to Portugal from Germany and I've watched lots of TH-cam channels with the ups and downs of building something up in Portugal. Not everyone reaches the status of being able to keep themselves afloat from TH-cam earnings and forgets to cultivate the land they now own profitably. I wish you the best of luck there and if you tackle it well, you can be really happy in Portugal. If you really feel like going to the sea, you can quickly reach the coast. What could happen to you is that many people who watched you because of the sailing will drop out, but many new subscribers will come who are interested in life in Portugal.
What a sweet comment. Thank you for that. We do love it here so far. We're pretty far inland (Cinfaes) and the poeple are super cool. Honestly love it so far. Maybe this will be the place! The new tax rules are not great for us though... We'll see :)
@schlingelmaru5034 AMEN!! I totally agree. I've lived there on Terceria Island Azores. And now I'm looking for property there and the mainland. I just found a sweet little place with a Habitation license, some fruit trees, and a water wheel on a seasonal river. It's a little stream now. Enough to lay down, in that hot summer time!! Keep in touch if you do move there. I've watched a ton of TH-cam, too, and become like friends. They help me out.
@@thelastpirate You're welcome, and yes, the taxes for non-Europeans can be annoying, but I hope that the rest of the country, the whole flair, the people, the weather in general will win you over. After all, it is still one of the cheaper countries in Europe or the EU and that should make it easier and cheaper if you can also provide for yourselves in your future property. Much further east in Europe there is Hungary and Bulgaria. While Hungary has Orban, with whom you don't have to agree politically, Bulgaria is more neutral, but the whole Ukraine story is closer. I also have a problem, which isn't really a problem, my adult daughter lives with me, an IT worker who is moving to Karlsruhe to work and will live across the border in Alsace. For us it would be enough if electricity was cheaper than in Germany. And once you're a mom, you're a mom for life and that won't stop when your child is grown up and my daughter doesn't want to leave the Ruhr area without her mom and I want to leave too. After all, there's nothing keeping me here because I'm retired and no longer working. The money alone is a problem because I don't want to be a burden on my daughter with my small pension, even if she wants to give me a lot back. In the Cinfaes area you are not far from the Newby family, with their channel The Newbys in the Amarante area, btw. Sometimes it is quite useful to make such contacts.
Those dang stinging nettles. First time I encountered those was when I was a kid visiting Europe. You learn quickly to avoid them. Very cool property! Interested in seeing what's next in your journey.
James that river property looked amazing, a serious amount of work which I think you can handle , and I think you and Ana could create something fantastic there......if you are heading to land look no further Also, you have such a contented look on your face when you are with Ana and Luna
Wait till you sail the southern coast of Portugal and the western coast starting at Sagres (once called the end of the world) simply incredible and let's not forget the FRESHNESS AND QUALITY OF THE FOOD! Yes I'm Portuguese 🤙🏽 Good luck James!
This property is stunning! Also, I’m very glad you found a functional use for the Baby Jellyfish I sent along. Like, a binky holder!!!?? Brilliant idea!!
Me and my two kids will pack our bags and come help with the weed whacking lol seriously that place is incredible. There’s no way to show how awesome it is. You have to be there to appreciate it.
Love that river property. So much potential and with the 10 (ruins) you can build pretty much unfettered. Admire taking the change up in life too for your child.
I'm I guess a long time subscriber but I haven't been watching though I love your channel very much, I was shocked to find you are selling the boat but once i saw your video I can now see that you are doing the right thing for the right reasons. Things will still be awesome I believe that a smaller boat will hardly be all that noticeable to the viewer taking into consideration that a 50' yacht is allot of boat.. You have a beautiful family
OMG! Ana and James. LUNA is Awesome! I want to give her a hug. Well, actually, I'd like to give all of you hugs. I miss the boat. But I want to see where you both go -- I guess it's where all three of you go. I want Luna to remember me. Let's make that happen.
This is an incredible river and waterfall!!! Absolutely gorgeous! I follow several people who have homesteads and channels in Portugal. Have you seen the other watermill channel? Mr and Mrs Adventure. They also know a lot about rebuilding and clearing land in Portugal.
It’s really nice James. The vegetation is a simple issue. The building structures inside may be something a little larger and the unknown is also the expense and might need very deep pockets. You’ll have a vision for whatever you choose. Good luck with your search guys and by the way, that Ford car you bought is a little gem, keep up the oil and it will go forever
James and Anna, i will continue to watch your channel wherever and whatever you guys do because of your spirit. James, you've continually surprised me since the backyard canal days with the cat and your hardtop fab! I would totally just find a chill place to rent and get feel for Portugal. I know Portugal has low passive income requirements for expats but me personally have been more impressed with Northern Coastal Spain from Vigo all the way to Bibao just do a road trip that way.
Hopefully the property is near free because it needs everything. Roofs, plumbing, sewer, Electrical ect. But on the upside with all those nettles you can make nettles soup. It’s a real thing and delicious
And... the property is out of this world. It's a paradise so rare that can think only this... IF YOU CAN... DO IT!!!!... I'm sure you'll never regret so much and so rich kind of place... You will be happy and you will have a wonderful life for your family... Has a humble man that i am... Anything you may need, from me, you will have a right arm for life... You'll feel that one day we will meet. It's my hope to touch your lives like you've done to mine!
I heard the river running and immediately thought, you have fresh water and hydro power, when I saw the water mill, even better a place to put the hydro power and a pump to get the water up to tanks by the buildings, this would make an awesome bnb business location, but it's a lot of work, but I know you're not afraid of some work. Don't try to live in the watermill until you've checked how high the water goes in the river when it floods.
If you are looking for a challenge, this could be it. Lots of clean-up. Likely it will need 3-5 workmen for a while to make it livable. Hopely sooner than later. Ten years from now it may be the smartest purchase you ever made. OR It would be interesting to know why the people who lived there previously moved on. Good luck, stay safe!
Hey Ana, Luna and James, I've been on YT since you started and I live in Austria. IF I wanted to emigrate, then ONLY to Portugal - 100% Yes, you'll definitely have to invest a lot of time and (also) money, that's something to consider. ...and no, I won't leave your sailing channel, that's for sure(!) 🙂 All the best to you three.
Hi you all ! Nice place, but if you want a home with all 4 seasons, fishing in spring, farming in summer, hunting in fall - and cozy fire in winter, Norway is the place 🙂 Been watching your videos som quite som time, and if Norway still is on your list, I'll be more than happy to try to assist
Hey guys, are you crazy or very rich? I too have followed you for a few years and love the enthusiasm but James you are a master mariner with so much experience. This will be like first day dingy sailing for you. With 40years in construction even I would have to think long and hard. The access road alone could be north of 400,000 euro before you consider, services, the restoration and fixtures and fittings. Please make sure you have this costed properly before committing friend. If you work on the guide of 1/3rd to buy, 1/3 re to renovate and 1/3 profit when sold you won’t be far off excluding access. Good luck if you go ahead, but please do the numbers. For the same cost you could buy a60ft cat.😂
Glad to hear on your decision to possibly move to Portugal. My wife and I moved here 4 months ago with our 4 Wolf Sheppards and all I can tell You And Your Wife is "I Feel So Blessed Moving Here. Only regret was not having done it at an earlier age. But Still Thankful. Robert(Ras).
It has potential. You have always been trying new things and have gone on many adventures. You both are very determined and hard working, so I believe you will succeed in whatever you both choose to do. Looking forward to seeing you prosper. It certainly is a nice piece of property.
Hey Captain Kames, Anna and Luna! It's Melinda!! I LOVE Portugal! I was stationed on Terceria Island Azores when in the Navy along time ago. Been back several times and to the Maineland too! I LOVE PORTUGAL! The People, The Food, The History!! Ya know when I was in school Christopher Columbus discovered America. Was Portuguese and went to Spains QUEEN Isabella for money to cross the Ocean. (Well as you know history has been re-written. When I lived their The People were so Proud Of that fact. Well, I'm looking for property on the mainland and Terceria. But prices on the island have tripled since COVID. Mainland has at least doubled if not tripled. So low ball them, see what happens! Make sure you get a Real Estate Lawyer. If Stone Ruin, get a Habitation Liscense. Just mention this stuff, and then they'll know you've done your homework! Much Love to the Family I was Hoping to Sail to The Azores with. Remember? Luna is going to bust your......Your gonna have to get a bat to keep them boys away!😂😂😂😂 ✝️🙏❤️🇺🇸🇵🇹⛵️👣☘️🍍🍍🍍🍍🤗😎🍼
Hey James, They Call Weedeaters, Stimmers, lol. Houses that have 2 stories, like the ruins. In old time, the animals would be kept under the house and they would live above. And they have outdoor kitchens and bread ovens!! NO POISON SNAKES AND NO ALLIGATORS! LOL. EAT ALCATRA!!!😊😊
James what do I think of this piece of land? Vipassana "a money pit" So you either have land or a boat you can't have both as they together cost way too much money, that water channel would cost a fortune to make it operational. Sailing GBU has settled in Puerto Rico on 8 acres, check them out. Good luck and best wishes to you and your family.
Cool property but definitely a hole in the water, you know the saying coming from a sailboat! Just make sure you check on what you can do with the water diversion, most countries have strict regulations when it comes to that, also ruins are a pain and expensive to restore, and cannot be modified without approval and that can take forever! If you plan to be there for the next 20 years ( you are young) this could work with the proper amount of cash of course.
Are you gonna say hello to Margarida , Peter young sweetheart 😊 after all you’re in Portugal lol. Since Peter is getting catamaran, maybe she might join the team again.
hey James, I just looked at the location. prepare for cold. you are quiet far north in Portugal. the land looks lovely. best regards from interior of Valencia
While I think the river property is wonderful, the old, main house looked to be in really bad shape (hole in roof, rotted floors, falling timbers) - that is gonna be a huge project just to get it watertight again, let alone replace the main floor joists. Maybe the other buildings are better, hard to tell. I say - keep looking.
It is a part of your journey , but doncine bsck to us in a couple of weeks and would like to know if your opinion on portugal changed. Personally i cant see you settling there.
Your roots are calling for you! Come to Norway! Your probably thinking of a spot in one of the fjords i presume. Its stunningly beautiful there!! I live in Kristiansand, in the south of Norway, on an island in the Norwegian arcipelago. Beautiful as well, but on another scale. No steap mountains but thousands of small islands and islets 🙂
Hey James, Anna and Luna, welcome to my country. Good choice the Douro valley its a hidden geem in Portugal, my fathers family is from that region and its just a peace of heaven. I'm based in Lisbon and my boat homeport is Sines in the soutwest coast. I follow Zingaro for a wile now, it's been a great inspiration and a lot of learning with your adventures, so I'm really happy you guys are here, I have to send you my phone number so we can stay in contct and if you need some local knowlege, I'm really happy to help. Bemvindos
First of all. Do you know that you can for free get an old property in Italy? Yes! It’s more ore less free, if you sign up to restore it. I think it’s about 10$. Secondly. If you start before 3 years of age you can earn Luna to get perfect pitch. Look it up. It’s very important that you start early. Look up Rick Beato as his son has a perfect pitch Third. Be aware of that worker that you employ in Portugal, come to work for you. Rip the place down, and the they disappear. This is because they are delayed with previous projects. See that you have a contract, that say that if they don’t keep the schedule they have to pay. Or at least you don’t have to pay anything.
I don't know how much they want for that place, but I think it will take at least 2 or 3 times that just to clean up the vegetation to nothing about the structures. But if that is in your budget than snap it up. Just keep thinking, this is better than scrapping boat bottoms in jellyfish/ crocodile infested waters, cheers.
Hey if you like this video, please give it a LIKE, it helps us out alot. And SUBSCIBE if you'd like to follow our adventure! (WAIT TILL YOU SEE THE LOCATION NEXT WEEK!!!!!)
How much money are they selling that property for?
Where are you next week? 😊
Love, love this property! So many possibilities. Off grid for sure.

Hi James, that’s cold on winter time (Nov, Dec, Jan, Feb) . Check that with Anna!
You have to change the channel name to Homesteading Zingaro now. Bem-vindo a Portugal!
nice side of the sailing family 🎉its also cool content 😊
Cutest baby ever!
Hopefully the property is near free because it needs everything. Roofs, plumbing, sewer, Electrical ect. But on the upside with all those nettles you can make nettles soup. It’s a real thing and delicious
So nice! Hope you found, or soon will find, your own little piece of heaven 😊 Happy for you
Wow it would be nice to camp down near the river👌👍
looks nice and green , plenty of water for veggie patch etc .endless possabilities

Absolutely! My great grandfather was Norwegian… something is calling me there. Can I spearfish? 😎
Amazing place to live
Hey James, that cauldron is an (alambique), a moon shine still for making água ardent.
It's a beautiful place needs a lot of cutting back the The bushes and grass needs a lot of work.. you can build really cool hobbit houses
Porto, Portugal.
13:06 looks like mosquito hell there. Get some place in a little village somewhere so you have neighbors, as they will be generous.
Great Vibes courtesy of Negative Ions from the Waterfalls 💦🤟🏽🤙🏽
Looks like a piece of paradise! It will be a lot of work, but then so is a boat!
Love the idea of turning the water mill into a source of off grid energy.
beautiful ,go for ,that's it,
Hey guys, are you crazy or very rich? I too have followed you for a few years and love the enthusiasm but James you are a master mariner with so much experience. This will be like first day dingy sailing for you. With 40years in construction even I would have to think long and hard. The access road alone could be north of 400,000 euro before you consider, services, the restoration and fixtures and fittings. Please make sure you have this costed properly before committing friend. If you work on the guide of 1/3rd to buy, 1/3 re to renovate and 1/3 profit when sold you won’t be far off excluding access. Good luck if you go ahead, but please do the numbers. For the same cost you could buy a60ft cat.😂
Theyre rich
Buy it!!!!!!!!
Wow, look how much Luna has sprouted since your last video. Beautiful property 👍 Did you sell your boat?
What is the cost of this land?
Enough that he is ashamed to reveal that to his viewers.
Glad to hear on your decision to possibly move to Portugal. My wife and I moved here 4 months ago with our 4 Wolf Sheppards and all I can tell You And Your Wife is "I Feel So Blessed Moving Here. Only regret was not having done it at an earlier age. But Still Thankful. Robert(Ras).
You bet, it's a boomer destination 🤣
It has potential. You have always been trying new things and have gone on many adventures. You both are very determined and hard working, so I believe you will succeed in whatever you both choose to do. Looking forward to seeing you prosper. It certainly is a nice piece of property.
Nice, i am currently looking this Video on my Sailboat ancoring in the Douro River ❤

Welcome to Portugal... The property seems fantastic, a really peaceful place. Good luck to you and your family.

Great place!
After watching you guys going around the world I can't believe you ended up not too far from me.
Small world.
Hi from William O and Jolly 🐾 my Dog
Hi William and Jolly the dog! Great name for the pup!
Hey James, They Call Weedeaters, Stimmers, lol. Houses that have 2 stories, like the ruins. In old time, the animals would be kept under the house and they would live above. And they have outdoor kitchens and bread ovens!! NO POISON SNAKES AND NO ALLIGATORS! LOL. EAT ALCATRA!!!😊😊
Beautiful Place TONS of Work to do.....also what about the BUGS at night??? and the Anna Eating Plants
Great choice, love the property! I’ve been looking at moving there for the last year!
James what do I think of this piece of land?

hello to all ..i live in Espinho , let me know if you pass by ..
be safe ..
Weed Eater is a brand, actual name is Sting Trimmer....
NO WAY? Learn something everyday... Thanks!
Cool property but definitely a hole in the water, you know the saying coming from a sailboat!
Just make sure you check on what you can do with the water diversion, most countries have strict regulations when it comes to that, also ruins are a pain and expensive to restore, and cannot be modified without approval and that can take forever! If you plan to be there for the next 20 years ( you are young) this could work with the proper amount of cash of course.
It’s perfect!!!
Looks great James. I can see a lot of work getting it all neat and tidy but if you are up for it then go for it.
Beautiful place and with the water wheel setup you will be able to generate your own power
Looks great - would be fun to follow the transformation … sort of like sailing good bad and ugly
Depends on how close to a town (Supplies)
Alot of work to make habitable.
How seasonal is the river.
Does it flood ??
Nice place a lot of oportunities
@13:38 lots of weed wacking for you 😂
Love the property.
Looks like you’re in Portugal where about? Is it in the North? Hope you had and enjoy your time here. Could be nice poppet to you to say hi.
Are you gonna say hello to Margarida , Peter young sweetheart 😊 after all you’re in Portugal lol. Since Peter is getting catamaran, maybe she might join the team again.
I think you need to take a weed Wacker with you when looking at these properties. A realtor without keys. Time to find a different one.
watch out for the vipers
Sailing around the world my arse. More like up and down the Caribbean.
@Rustie_za
... dann hast du sicher nicht alle Videos gesehen... also mache dich erstmal schlau, bevor du hier herumtrollst...
That property needs a herd of goats vegetation would be gone in no time, plus milk & meat win win
Oh and 1 guard Donkey to protect the goats
Portugal... The only people kinder and more loving than Filipinos, I was a truckdriver in Europe in my youth! 🇸🇪⛵
@@Servant_of_Christ why more then Filipinos ?😂
James ya gotta get ya a good pair of boots to go with those jeans my man! Beautiful spots. Excited for you guys! 🤙
hey James, I just looked at the location. prepare for cold. you are quiet far north in Portugal. the land looks lovely.

While I think the river property is wonderful, the old, main house looked to be in really bad shape (hole in roof, rotted floors, falling timbers) - that is gonna be a huge project just to get it watertight again, let alone replace the main floor joists. Maybe the other buildings are better, hard to tell. I say - keep looking.
Dude, you got a mini-me
I know, right? She’s a little me!
It is a part of your journey , but doncine bsck to us in a couple of weeks and would like to know if your opinion on portugal changed.
Personally i cant see you settling there.

I love Portugal. I could happily live there.
Me too! The people are SO NICE here. The location beautiful. Food is great. Not too expensive... What a place.

Your roots are calling for you! Come to Norway!
Your probably thinking of a spot in one of the fjords i presume. Its stunningly beautiful there!!
I live in Kristiansand, in the south of Norway, on an island in the Norwegian arcipelago. Beautiful as well, but on another scale. No steap mountains but thousands of small islands and islets 🙂
And yes, spearfishing is legal and fish are abundant 😉
Where in Norway was your great grandfather from?
Hey James, Anna and Luna, welcome to my country. Good choice the Douro valley its a hidden geem in Portugal, my fathers family is from that region and its just a peace of heaven. I'm based in Lisbon and my boat homeport is Sines in the soutwest coast. I follow Zingaro for a wile now, it's been a great inspiration and a lot of learning with your adventures, so I'm really happy you guys are here, I have to send you my phone number so we can stay in contct and if you need some local knowlege, I'm really happy to help.

Hello from Australia 🦘. All the best.😁
First of all. Do you know that you can for free get an old property in Italy?
Yes! It’s more ore less free, if you sign up to restore it.
I think it’s about 10$.
Secondly. If you start before 3 years of age you can earn Luna to get perfect pitch. Look it up. It’s very important that you start early. Look up Rick Beato
as his son has a perfect pitch
Third. Be aware of that worker that you employ in Portugal, come to work for you. Rip the place down, and the they disappear. This is because they are delayed with previous projects. See that you have a contract, that say that if they don’t keep the schedule they have to pay. Or at least you don’t have to pay anything.
12:25 Hydro Electric house to electrify the other buildings structures. Cheers
Wow trees vines old rotten stables. Life time work
HELL NO
I don't know how much they want for that place, but I think it will take at least 2 or 3 times that just to clean up the vegetation to nothing about the structures.
But if that is in your budget than snap it up.
Just keep thinking, this is better than scrapping boat bottoms in jellyfish/ crocodile infested waters, cheers.
??? sailboat can't make it up that waterway?!?!?
If anyone is going to try to sail a boat up there.... it's Zingaro.
