Hi Kristen I actually think I walked past you this summer on Pico. I was sailing around the Azores (was hiking on Flores and got insanely lucky to meet group of young Germans with a boat who let me join them and avoid air miles by sailing back to mainland Europe). We anchored in the harbour of São Roque for a week and one day as we got off the dingy to go into town I walked past someone sat against the wall who looked very much like you. I wasn’t certain at the time though and I was too shy to say hi (you also looked deep in thought and I didn’t want to disturb you) but I wish I had. I’ve followed you for years and it would have been nice just to chat with you. Anyway, not sure what the point of this comment was. I guess that it’s also been really lovely to see and hear you share your love for the Azores. They are really such magical, moody islands and the time I spent on them this summer will stay with me always. Lots of love 💙
this is so amazing how well dressed you are and knowing that it is all sustainable, vegan and concious - a neverending inspiration on this and many other fields
As a Portuguese person, I laughed so hard at how annoyed you were by the music playing at the festivities. We call it "musica pimba" and it's a mandatory classic in every local festivities that mostly old people seem to enjoy. It's very annoying and the lyrics can sometimes be quite filthy 🙃
just popping in to say how much I appreciate the work you put in your videos and your views in general.You’ve literally changed my perspective on so many topics,sustainability etc.I’ve been obsessed with your videos for the past month,they make the exam season seem less painful 🥲
oh no I will miss pico so much it was so cool to watch these beautiful places in the weekends I think I cant deal with you leaving 😭😭😭😭😭 (also I'm Brazilian and it is very nice to hear your pronunciation of words that I recognize hahaha)
I think you'll be less sad if you visit some greek islands, atehns is so depressing in comparison to the islands. I fell in LOVE with the ionian islands in greece
Did you ever search for astrocartogtafy? You can see the planets that can influence you the most around the world. You probably have a great line passing through Pico :)
This video is literally healing. I'm actually working in a corp sustainability position for one of the biggest corps in the world right now - I actually want to bring your channel up - You probably wouldn't accept an offer from them because of who they are but I'll mention your name anyway. I mean corp world is corp world...don't want to get into it. But boy I would just love to escape to a world that is closer to nature and closer to who my heart really is, it's hard living in a place that's not really who you are and having to conceal your true self. Brings hope that there's a world out there that could bring this to my life. I've been following you for years. You actually inspired me to infiltrate the corps and to try to make a difference but it's really hard as you know. Glad you took a break, you've done so much good work over the years and have really changed people's lives.
🥹💛 I honestly didn’t know how good life can get until I spent this summer there, good people, true community and surrounded by gorgeous nature is how every place should be
It's so beautiful there!😍😍 I hope you're coming back soon😜 can't start the cult without you🤩 Tasmin has a great youtube channel, so for anyone missing pico vlogs and people who like renovations - I recommend her yt✌😁
I love your videos, and I am always in love with the aesthetic. On the other note, could u do a video in which you show how u style your hair? it's so beautiful...
Thanks again Kristen for a great video 😍 A video talking about costs there per month would be very interesting! I would love to spend a summer there too 💙
Just a couple of to do's, you should add to your Pico bucket list: Climb the mountain and watch the stars and sunset/sunrise on top; Go sailing on an Azorean whaleboat; Come back again and I promise to add more ;) Quite nice to view this heavenly place from another (nice and unique) perspective as yours.
I'm sad this is your last vlog here, but it's still as beautiful as the others! I've been loving seeing the islands through your point of view and love hearing you pick up on the Portuguese words! You'll get there eventually 😅oh and I'm sorry no one warned you about the music in the festas! It's like this throughout all of Portugal and you can handle it for like a party or something if it's cultural and you've been hearing it ever since you were born, but they are quite hard to withstand without the cultural context 😂
Oh ma God, I have a whale tattoo, too, after whale watching and actually (this tattoo) has a special meaning for me. PS: I've already been there, but definitely we can go again together 🙌🏻 welcome back in Greece, Kr ❤️
oh no you're leaving! I'm curious what is making you leave or was it always the plan to stay for three months? I've been researching places to start a little food forest and was following your journey in pico wondering if it's a place to do it :)
Hi Kristen, I really enjoy your videos and appreciate your work on sustainability. I just wanted to point something out: are you sure those wind turbines are actually promoting sustainability and are beneficial for the island's natural habitat? you might be aware of the fact that in Greece (where I also live) this is not the case... you could maybe do some research on this, since you are planning to live there in the long term and you seem to care about the place a lot! Good luck with all your endeavours!
Hi Kristen, I will be in Athens the end of September. Will you be back by then? If so, I will send you my email, it would be totally awesome to meet!!!
So you decided to trash talk the music the locals were enjoying and then proceeded to transations to a picnic with a foreigner and eat not traditional food :D Way to go! But they, at least you got content. Don't forget to do like your german friend and block the comment section or just block me when the comments arent positive.
Impeccable images. Keep up the good work. I take this opportunity to invite you to follow "Azores, What Else", both here on TH-cam, as on Instagram and other social networks. Best regards.
This is definitely on my bucket list now. I will visit Kristen Isla... I mean Pico Island
Hell yes! 🥳🥳🥳
The beautiful nature on the islands of Azores fits very well with your natural charisma...

I've only been to the Azores once, and only for one day on the way somewhere else, but now I want to go back. Thanks to our beautiful tour guide!
Has a fellow Portuguese seeing the love you carry for Açores is so amazing, thank you for showing the world our beautiful Islands

This island is incredible. I travel very rarely bit I want to go there
Ugh what beauty what grace. Fav blog of your so far. Also screaming attorney Woo vibes 🐬🐋🐳
I think you'll be less sad if you visit some greek islands, atehns is so depressing in comparison to the islands. I fell in LOVE with the ionian islands in greece
I'm so relaxed after watching this , it feels like a meditation. Love from Morocco 💕
The island is beautiful and I looove all the hydrangeas.
Beautiful, I cannot wait to go back. My family is from here so awesome.
🥰The best place in the world to visit, get in touch with nature and get away from stress.
love LOVE love the drone footage. 🥰 And your message about eco-tourism around dolphins and whales!
I have been at home caregiving all summer and I so loved traveling through these videos! Pico is stunning and it’s amazing to see you so happy!
Did you ever search for astrocartogtafy? You can see the planets that can influence you the most around the world. You probably have a great line passing through Pico :)
I'm a fan of your videos! I've never been to Pico, only S. Miguel and it's beautiful!
A kiss from Portugal 🇵🇹
This made me want to go to the Azores even more!!!
I'm brazilian and is just so nice to listen to you speaking portuguese :D

I liked the classical music! It does the shots justice unlike some youtube standard music
the notification instantly improved my sunday mood
🥰
I CAN'T BE WRONG, THE CLOTHES FROM 0:07 ARE FROM MY REGION IN COLOMBIA. WOW, I din't know we had this cultural connection with these islands.

It looks so lovely

Ok no joke I downloaded Endel with 0 expectations and I loved it. It helps me fall asleep more than any pill ever did. Good sponsor choice
Yes! So glad you’re liking it too! I’m on public transport using it right now lol
Oh men, you were in Portugal! I would love to meet you!!!
been watching you for YEARS and next month i move to athens
You deserved such a great summer❤️
🥺💛
Yeah my lefty greek bae blessed me with another vid.
This is hyping me up for my upcoming vacation (not in the azores but in greece hehe)
they look amazing! a bit similar to the canary islands since they’re both volcanic islands :)
SIGN OFF, I WANT MOREE..💚💚💚 this video, hikes and plants..one of my favorite videos you've done..✨✨✨MAGICAL 💫💫💫
So nice view s
Great Music in this Video
Lovelove your new style of montaging
I don't skip one single ad while watching your videos
Stop it youuu 🥰🥰🥰
The Azores is beautiful but girl get out of Athens, go to Kefalonia and visit the Ionian islands!
Kristen, my only holidays are in January, would it be too cold to go to Pico? I reeeally wanna visit the island now, also Faial looks gorgeous!!
Tasman is a friend a mine, quite a surprise to see her face pop up 😅
Great
off topic but yr hair is SO beautiful!!!
oh no you're leaving! I'm curious what is making you leave or was it always the plan to stay for three months? I've been researching places to start a little food forest and was following your journey in pico wondering if it's a place to do it :)
Yes! The plan was to stay for three months at first then return again whenever it’s possible 😉
i love pico
wow that looks a lot like the costumes used in colombian carnivals
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Being Greek and living in Athens, I have mixed feelings with you coming back .. 🤣❤ (welcome back to the rat race , I guess )
You zooming in on my face while you mispronounced all the plant names just broke me 😂😂 See you in December! ❤
Also, 17:02 - you are going to be the sole reason Rocha de Velha will die out on this island 😂😂 (and that is a good thing :D)
Misspronounced??? Please, my accent was peeeerrrrfect 💁♀️
I've already convinced my partner to get land on Pico with me to plant a fruit forest.
Beautiful nature and a very beautiful woman. Question: Is the island of Pico also suitable for a place to live for young people?
έναν θέλω να ανοίξει ένα βιγκαν εστιατόριο εκεί κ ήρθα κ έμεινα!
Ahahah δωσ’τους 50 χρονια και ισως 😂
Πανέμορφη !!
picos tourism board need to hire you
What was the thing in that bird's claw? I didn't quite identify it
A rabbit or a bunny 💀
😍
TH-cam IS educational

Where do I sign up for the cult
come to brazil
The irony of talking sustainability while travelling by plane and car XD
So architectural horrors and bird-killing windmills don't spare the Azores either. There really is no escape from modern madness.
I thought u moved there forever and were looking to buy a house
Has anyone written here yet about what Pico means in Chilean slang? Lol
can anyone see this comment? thanks
yes
I can see this comment
@@Randomstuffs261 thanks, it doesnt mean my other comments show though
Hi Kristen, I will be in Athens the end of September. Will you be back by then? If so, I will send you my email, it would be totally awesome to meet!!!
PS I am a neuroscientist, also have misophonia, environmentalist, traveler, artist and I have followed your channel for ages
I do not have a chalet in the mountains for you but a little field where I grow veggies LOL
i am pretty sure about joining that cult. sign me up... I suppose living costs will be covered by my soul..?
Save the planet, but let’s go travel around the world meanwhile...
Exactly 🥰
