- Hi Guys,
Happy to be hanging out with you on this beautiful summer like February day.
The main reason I chose to do this particular video was to show you how amazing it is to visit the Azores in the winter months.
I wanted you to experience this day with me, hanging out on Pico Island. We will be visiting the coast, the highlands, one of the lakes, historic whaling village of Lajes and the town of Sao Roque.
I also had a picnic with 3 cows in an amazing spot, surrounded by raw nature and pure scenic landscape.
We hope you enjoyed spending time with me on this February day in the Azores.
Love having you with us on our journey
Carlos & Laura

I adore Pico. Mom from Terceira and dad from Pico. Climate so much better in Pico. Love the scenery the food and especially the people. Love the videos. Miss Laura
Glad you enjoyed it, all the islands are great. We are all very lucky. I miss Laura too, just booked her ticket! Take care!
Linda paisagens o Pico é muito lindo 🌳🌵🌱🌲👏👍
I'm Italian and I've lived in Pico for 10 years... it's the best thing I've ever done in my life (and I would love to go back)
That is very nice to hear. Pico will always be here with open arms. We also love Italy! Take care!
@@ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552 maybe a new Burger King restaurant is opening there, can you confirm?
Hi Carlos, great video 👍thoroughly enjoyed it 🎉
Wow, what a great drive through the forests and up to the mountains and back. The ocean is beautiful from every angle, every altitude. Cheers Carlos!
Glad you enjoyed it. Totally chillaxing experience. Cheers!
Once again great video Carlos, it's your getting beautiful weather for the month of February over here we're getting more snow ❄️ can't get enough of Pico island and seeing Sao Jorge in the back ground, that's what I want to do have lunch with cow's around you so peaceful. Great video cheers guy's
The simple things add so much to our overall health. I'm pretty sure these cows were trying to communicate with me. lol. Sorry about the snow. Take care Tony!
Congratulations Carlos on your video,a great day to film in February,the Wether was nice for this time of year, so nice to stay so close to nature,by the Sea,or in the interior of the Island with the beautiful view of São Jorge on the other side,with all the crazy wars going on,this is Paradise,where Nature Rules,I also have a summer house In Terceira that I visite every Summer,I am lucky to live in Canada,and Azores,Portugal.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. We are both very lucky and previlleged to spend time on these islands. Take care Fernando.
Your love and commitment to your island is quite apparent. Your parents raised a good son. I immigrated to Canada three months before you were born and we share the same sign, caranguejo🦀.
Carlo, I really enjoyed this one! Beautiful scenery. I’ve done some intermittent fasting in the past and should get back into it. Hope to say hi to you and Laura one day on Pico!
Glad you enjoyed this video, it means a lot. Come to Pico and you might just run into us. Cheers!
Pico Island is gorgeous!
So glad I clicked on this recommended channel a while back!! I love it, your vlogs are amazing!! The vistas on Pico are magnificent!!! BTW I've been binge watching your vlogs. Laura will soon be there!! ☺🇨🇦
We're so glad you're enjoying Pico and our journey. It means a lot. I just booked her ticket, she is coming Apr 14. Maybe we will see you on Pico. Take good care.
Great video and scenery along the highlands. I think I could spend the day just walking around up there listening to the birds. Very Nice!
Maybe even staying over night, lol. Take care Egidio. Saude!
🙏🙏🙏 absolutely phenomenal lunch spot! One day
Wow just beautiful! Anytime i see one of your videos with the views of the beautiful countryside just brings me back to our time there and i miss it so much! I fell in love with Pico instantly. Can't wait to return.
That is so nice to hear, it is a great feeling having both the countryside and the ocean. We and Pico will be waiting! Take care Sue!!
Beautiful Carlos!
Love it.
What a lovely day. Thank you for taking us along 💕
Thank you Virlane. You will hopefully get to do the same soon. Take care.
Thank you for sharing this video with us.
Thank you, Island, you enjoyed it. Cheers
I stayed in the North East of Sao Miguel last week. It was sunny and around 20 degrees celsius. Only at nights it was chilly.
You know the feeling, 20 degrees is amazing. Take care Markus!
@@ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552 Here in Düsseldorf it´s freezing cold and it has been for quiet a while. So it was a short hop to spring - loved it!
Gorgeous day on Pico, thanks for sharing! Brought back fond memories of our stay there last September. Is it possible to feel homesick for a place where you've only spent a couple of weeks? Your videos keep reminding us there is so much more left for us to experience. We will definitely be visiting again as soon as we can.
Great to see you in the Winter here! I am afraid that this week the weather is not as nice but we had a terrific February this year! Greetings from Faial.
I guess beggars can't be choosers, will take the February sunshine, as they say. Take are Jose!
New microphone is great! Thanks for the interesting content, nothing better than thinking of the Azores during Feb in Toronto
Thank you David, always trying to improve. Glad you enjoyed the day! Cheers!

You are welcome. Thanks for watching! Take care!
Thank you Carlos for showing us your beautiful island I have been there once and would love to go back there again
Thank you for hanging out. Pico is waiting. Take care Ludovina!
Absolutely beautiful, thanks for sharing!
Awesome
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. Cheers!
Beautiful island ❤
I'm partial to faial,that's where I was born, my parents immigrated to the states 60 years ago,even though I only lived in faial 7 years of my life as a kid I see videos on UA-cam, which shows our house the city a lot of memories
very enjoyable thank you
Glad you enjoyed it. Take care Graciela!
19 degrees Celsius, fresh oranges in February, and Amazon Prime delivery. That's what heaven looks like (at least if you don't start a home renovation). 🙂 - All kidding aside, this is one of my favorite videos so far. I would love to live there in retirement. The only question is: Where to hide from the tourists in July, August, and September?
We enjoy the island time of year. I can only speak about Pico, but the busiest areas will be restaurants, car rentals, tourist facilities etc. Because Pico is a good size island, most locals just stick to themselves, go out to restaurants less etc. You will see more tourists, but Pico and other smaller islands is still way less than the big island of Sao Miguel. Just my 2 cents. Take care!
Wonderful videos! Thank you for sharing part of your lives and your beautiful Azores. We will definitely contact you when we visit next year (after we settle into our new home city of Porto later this year).
We look forward to speaking with you Virginia and congratulations on your new home!
Oh yes, beautiful. Not quite seven weeks left and we are back again. Thank you so much for keeping us in touch with the island with your really nice videos. See you in April.
Thank you so much everytime I see your videos brother I get so inspired . It really helps me through these hard Canadian winters .
My flights are booked, cant wait to be back.
Beautiful! Do you find some islands to have better weather than others? I’m mentally planning for our family trip next winter (in need of green, sun, and warmth). Hello from Vermont!
Thank you. I think the weather is pretty balanced throughout the Azores. The one that might get the most sunny days works probably be Santa Maria. Take care.
Very scenic drive along the way and the roads look in really good shape. What is the current price of gas?
I always enjoy these scenic and peaceful drives. I fill vw golf with 60 euros once every 2 weeks or so, I do quite a bit of driving. Cheers
Hi Carlos and Laura, I stumbled across your videos and they have been so great to watch. We are coming to the Azores in July and I was wondering what company you would recommend for a rental car? I have heard Azores Easy Rentals is good but wasn't sure if we should just go with a company at the airport (Sao Miguel)? Thanks for any help you can provide. Cheers!
Glad you have joined our journey. We can book cars and vacation rentals. Send tour travel info to Mt email; date, duration, number of guests, is it just Sao Miguel or other islands, etc. We are partners with an amazing company. Thank you.

I will be there in February and am having a hard time trying to figure out what clothes to pack. During the day does it get hot enough to where shorts or should I just bring winter clothes? Thank you for any advice you can offer.
Br8ng a few layers of clothing, you will probably wear all of it. There will be nice sunny days around 16, but also some colder damp days as well. I have worn shorts in February, maybe bring a pair. Cheers
@ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552 great, thank you very much for your helpful advice!
i was in Lajes do ´pico in 1990
Oh how I wish could buy a property there. What is the main website to look for properties? I’m Portuguese, live in Australia.
Não acha que promover a Ilha por intermedio deste canal, e ofereçer workshops a estrangeiros, será o melhor futuro para a Ilha? Como deve saber, existem consequencias. Hoje é ainda o paraíso a que lhe chama. Será esse mesmo paraíso no futuro quando tiver 68 ou 78? Será no futuro além do nosso prazo de vida? A beleza de um lugar é como assim o encontrou, as belas paisagens, com as pessoas locais! Partes do Algarve são o exemplo do que pode vir a acontecer. Seria o melhor para os Açores?
Entendo e agradeço seu comentário. Na nossa opinião este paraíso continuará a ser um paraíso, a mãe natureza não construiu estas ilhas para o turismo de massa. O Algarve e a maioria destes locais são animais diferentes, não podemos comparar.
Haverá algumas pessoas querendo morar ou se mudar para cá, devemos acolhê-las. Os meus pais portugueses criaram para ajudar e partilhar com todos, incluindo pessoas que não conhecemos. Estas oficinas destinam-se a fazer exatamente isso, ajudá-los e ensiná-los. Desta forma, eles podem tomar uma decisão adequada. Vai correr tudo bem, estas novas pessoas vão ajudar os Açores a crescer bem, esta é a nossa opinião. Obrigado, e toda a saúde para você.
you keep mentioning people. I see cars, I see boats, I see homes, but scrubbing through this video, I dont think I saw a single person in this video. Looks like something straight out of silent hill. :)
