New subscriber here. Greatly enjoying your videos. My wife and I spent 3 weeks in the Algarve in Jan 2024 and we are returning Jan 2025. We spent only 1 day in Portimão but enjoyed walking at Praia da Rocha and the restaurants. I did not catch the name of the restaurant for sunset time. Would you mind sharing i? My wife loves sunsets and I would like to take her there. Thanks.
@@ReggieRodrigues Of course!! She will love this place for the sunset! It is called Cloque ao Mar. Enjoy!! 😊
Nice. The beach doesn't look very crowded at all and the choice of seashells is amazing. The food looks good too!
Hi. Loved your video and your channel. Is there a way I could reach you directly? Thank you so much and keep up the amazing work. Isabel
YT recommended your channel. That's a beautiful story. Welcome to this beautiful world 🌎 Cheering for you guys!
The trains to the West and to the East are different trains/train stations and do not connect. One is a long drive up north to get to
Sounds great.
Try the Hippo Bar or Sunday upstairs at Quasi’s!
You pay for the bus in cash. There are online timetables to check out times. Buses are more expensive than the train - trains are 50% off for over 60s ( but have I’d ) but cheap compared to the UK. Try O Monte restaurant or Saboras de Ria for restaurants! My husband loves pork & clams! There’s some good live music venues in the village if you want to just relax with a drink. Some fabulous day trips using the train - try a trip to Culatra ( island) from Oldham. Private health care lots of . East Algarve is a bit cheaper than the middle/west of Algarve. Really hard to get long term rentals but if you want to stay for 3 months over the winter season you’ll find some bargains. I love Cabanas! Been visiting for 15 years 😀
Seems quite nice. Good to know a month is likely a good amount of time.
Thanks for sharing. We are exactly the same when it comes to buses!! We ride the Metro's everywhere we do with no problems but yet we never take the bus because we don't know how to do it! Looking forward to next weeks wrap up.
if you are in cabanas the best place to eat is "o ideal". don't miss that one and also "mariscos e petiscos"
Excellent details and I appreciate the honest "No, but we love the place."
Portugal + crime? Tax evasion + money laundering.
Great summary of your stay . Thanks for sharing .
Thank you for our Sunday update - I am sure you will be enjoying a busy Lisbon by now and maybe wishing for the tranquility of here!!!! Looking forward to the results of your expenditure next week - Peter and I think you will be over budget !! Xxxx
A Snackbar in Portugal is like a restaurant and snackbar combined. You can get quick snacks and some options of full meals. The big difference from a normal restaurant is that they do not close in the afternoon, and they are open until late in the evening. Usually the meal prices are more affordable than normal restaurants, because the options on the menu are regular day to day local dishes.
We live way, ok half, below your means...We own a 4br, 2bath house so in my opinion we did it right! 2 years ago so that was a different time and my husband is an EU citizen so we always have a different circumstance! Always better though!!😉
Keep up the happy holiday travels, you both are lookin' good, I am so happy for you, love you both forever and always
Is it Ukrainian flag on the beach? Glory to Ukraine!
@@Alex-he1ve Yes. There was visible support for the Ukrainian all over Cabanas.
Looks so lovely! Thanks for sharing with us! I’m looking forward to nomad travels one day!
Thanks Robin!
Hi Mrs Donahoe,I miss you. Will you please come back
Thank goodness you shared "the law" lol... I can follow that rule! Can't wait to visit!
Haha! :)
🏋️♀️
Another great video. You folks are naturals! I like the amount of details you add, and the fact that you're going to the less touristy areas
Thank you so much!
Sounds like a very relaxing day…Thanks for sharing😎
Hi Karen! It was so relaxing! Thank you for watching!
I truly enjoy watching your video . Thanks for sharing . And yes , to following “Rick and Daphne law “😂
Thanks Jenny! :)
I would love to pick up shells on that beach!! So fun!
It was so hard to stop ourselves from taking some each time we went. They were so plentiful and pretty!
I truly enjoy your videos❤. Meanwhile I wonder who watched your belongings when you were in the water? I had such issue last time when I was in Cancun.
Thanks so much! We didn't have anything valuable with us (keys and phone went with us) and thankfully we didn't have any problems. Sorry about your experience in Cancun!
Daphne, you got me at “smuggled wine!” And the beach train…and your condo….just beautiful! I can’t imagine this experience you and Rick are having. I am living vicariously through you! you’re gonna laugh but I went the Auto ClubTriple AAA in Temecula and got free maps of England and Portugal so I can actually see where u are …using yellow highlighter!! (got my love of maps from my dad…every summer we’d travel across USA to Massachusetts and I was in charge of the maps!)… Are you finding life and luxuries more expensive in United States??How’s the language barrier (if any at all?) Keep safe. Love that the owner chimes in…so cool! Love your smile! Nurse Nancy xo
I love your comments Nurse Nancy! They make me so happy! I knew you would appreciate the wine of it all. :) That is so awesome that you got maps to follow us. xoxoxo What a great memory with your dad! I would say things overall are much more expensive in the states. Just the cost of the Airbnb in the states would have easily been 3x the amount we paid. It will be interesting to compare when we are back home. We have had very little problem here in Portugal with a language barrier. When we have run into a situation, we use Google Translate and it has worked wonders. Thanks for following along, I can't tell you how much joy it brings me!
Be interesting to hear more of your thoughts on eating out and the pace of things in restaurants/service + portions. Plus, how's it with the current anti-tourist protests? Looks like a very nice + peaceful day out.
We have come to fully embraced the pace of restaurants/service. It took us a minute to settle down and really enjoy the company, the food, the atmosphere and relax. We do find that we tend to go up and pay when we are ready, no one ever tries to move us along. Portions are perfect. It will be an interesting comparison when we go back home. :) We haven't experienced any anti-tourist protests or even sentiments yet. It really was a nice day and this is a very peaceful town! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment!!
@@RetiredNomadAdventures town, restaurant and you both look lovely - you both look like you're enjoying yourselves :)
@@wulfgold ☺Thank you so much!
Glad to share your sunshine as it is dark and rainy as we are watching the video.Looks like the tacos were beautiful - not jealous !! Have fun over these next couple of weeks before you go home .See you next week xxxx
Thanks Pauline and Peter! The sun was shining 95% of the time we were here. The little bit of rain we got was fun for us because it was so unusual. I have feeling these next few weeks will fly by! xoxoxo
Thank you for sharing your day with us
Thank you for watching Ria!
Looks lovely. What a great day
It really was! :) Thanks for watching!
We love to follow your adventures😀I love watching couples slow traveling on you tube and i am SO GLAD i’ve found you guys! That is a wonderful place for such a great price in the peak season! I like the second bedroom if it's not too expensive in case you have guests.Love the new location! Though that beach walk at the last place was incredible!
Ah! Thank you so much! We love following other UA-camr's slow travels too. We thought the price was great for what we got and the time of year also! The Portimão beach walk will be hard to beat! In fact, we really miss it!
You might want to check with your insurance company about a “storage” policy. We only pay $15 a month and then can reactivate when we get back to the States and start driving again.
Thank you for that tip!

You can stop light flickering in your videos by adjusting your shutter speed to roughly double the frame rate at which you record. You can do this easily with your iPhone or any DSLR if that’s what you use. Good content! We’re doing the exact same thing in 18 months when my government pension will also qualify us for premium free medical in the US. Hubby retired before me last year and just waiting on me :-)
Thanks for the tip! That is wonderful about the premium medical in the US! 18 months will fly by! Rick retired before me and had to wait until I could finally finish up as well. That is how he ended up with the nickname, Retired Rick. :)
I have been following you since your days in Ramsgate. Your videos are improving with each one I watch. Your presence seems very natural and comfortable in front of the camera. Keep up the great work. You will be monetized on UA-cam soon.
Thank you so much for your kind words Greg!
We used to get a super inexpensive and delicious, quick dinner at the Pingo Doce which included wine after shopping. We love to follow your adventures😀
We saw that and talked about doing the same but never did for some reason. We will have to make it point to do that soon! :)
Dollars or euros?
I love watching couples slow traveling on you tube and i am SO GLAD i’ve found you guys! Love your way of traveling, picking out your airbnbs, and your budget sort of aligns with what i will have after retirement. I have a long way to go still ( about 7 years 😢) but i am dreaming of my wonderful travels by watching your adventures! Thank you so much for sharing!
I love watching people slow travel too! It really is how we discovered doing this as a possibility for our 2nd half. Without others sharing their experiences, we never would have thought of it on our own. I am so grateful to others for sharing. Like you, it also helped me to dream and imagine while we put our plan together. Thank you for watching and wishing you all the best as you plan your own adventure! :)
That is a wonderful place for such a great price in the peak season! Jealous that you had a French press, we don’t mind the instant coffee but a press is very nice. Great price on the wine 🍷 love Portuguese wine
We thought so too! The French press was a game changer. We had been drinking instant coffee and been happy with it, until . . . :) Don't get me started on the wine! Hahaha!
Having the AC unit in the apartment is unexpected. I like the second bedroom if it's not too expensive in case you have guests.
The AC was wonderful on the toasty days! We never need the 2nd room, but it sure was really nice to be able to designate that room for all the "extra" stuff we have but aren't necessarily using regularly.
Hi there, it’s the owner here….just to say we don’t charge for extra guests coming to visit and use the spare room. Small, well behaved dogs are also welcome 😊
Love watching your videos and can't wait to see more!! Thanks for all the info!!
Thanks so much Slavka!
I am a little worried that wine is cheaper than water !!!!!!! The Airbnb looks lovely - hope Taylor gets to use the spare room .Thank you for our Sunday catch up ,keep sending your photos xxxx
The worry is warranted! Hahaha! The Airbnb was really comfortable. We enjoyed it! "See" you next Sunday! xoxoxox
I love your new Airbnb . Lots of space with 3 balcony . Bonus extra bedroom . Nice that Rick is close to his playground of golf . Enjoy your quiet relaxing time there in cabanas de tavira .
Thank you Jenny! :)
Love the new location! Though that beach walk at the last place was incredible!
This new location is really different, such a change of pace! I LOVED that beach walk in Portimao. We are noticeably not getting as many steps here.
I have heard from other videos that you can extend in Portugal for an additional 90 days, so they do other parts of Europe and then go to Portugal and extend another 90- getting 6 months total. You just need to stay in Portugal for the final 90. Have you heard of this?
I do believe there is a way to extend your stay, I am just not sure about the specifics of how to go about it.
Thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching!! :)
Looks beautiful! ❤
It really is beautiful here. Thank you for watching Alisa!
