    I think you have the better surroundings
    for your family in Portugal. Crusoe&
    Sawyer will have a great playing area
    and I think more fun on your farm. Look
    at your growing potential for fruit&veg-
    You will be able to sustain yourselves
    from the land! The cost of living is less
    in Portugal which will enable you to travel
    more as well. It's warmer in your "neck
    of the woods!" too! Italy has wonderful
    architecture and scenery,but you can
    always visit and see it as tourists! I
    guess I'm just partial to your lovely
    place! Cheers,Sandy&Andy

Now 44 years later still married 2 grown kids 3 grandkids. Still being brave and adventuring. I love seeing both family's adventures. I do laugh because we had "no tech" only float plane or boat on and off island no tv, phone, no nothing, other than a trailer to live in. A marine operator radio run by logging camp office was only communication, no stores. My husband taught school in the one room school. I soon became the camp nurse as I was an RN. It was the most wonderful life. It would of been a great You Tube adventure ha ha. Sending Blessings to you, thanks.

    Yes I follow these lovely folk, it's so wonderful to observe people who don't simply wish for a different life but take the plunge and do it!. My years in the mountains of Tenerife opened my eyes to a new culture and a new language and even though I'm no longer there and now on Anglesey in North Wales, I have friends for life and when I return to visit I am greeted with such joy and love it overwhelms me every time. Now I'm visiting New Zealand to see my own family who bravely moved out from the UK ten years ago and once again my horizons are extended ,I'm learning Maori! It is said that our lives are a journey, make it a good one!

    Carissimi what a laugh the ending, saw all of you on Instagram, love Italy it's vistas cannot be compared to anywhere else with the culture, not to put down any other European country, each one has it's riches, but Italy is Italia, culture, food, panoramic views from north to south, east to west. Malpensa Airport reachable only within Europe of course, worked many moons ago with one of the Ryan's of Ryanair, bringing lots of memories, how is it to fly now with Ryanair??? All in all a funny video with children playing, building and helping, love to see them enjoying your visit and you Tara and John turning to childhood yourselves. Happy your community of van travellers getting bigger. Next stop Torino maybe with LeAw family???. Infinity pool a hoot especially you John and Tara got married in the nice "warm" waters of Antarctica. The honeymoon kept you warm for sure😘. Thanks again for the laughs and new friends the family of Raising Voyagers.✈️💞🇮🇹🇵🇹👍🥶😂🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰🥰 P.S.: saw you all the ice pool, you ladies screaming was too much, BTW John want to hear on your next video the 65 times you asked Tara to marry you and why did she say yes in Australia, something there she has not seen in her other travels I imagine, did you get her the biggest diamond from Ayers Rock??? Need to know😂😅🥰

    However, I did not that you knew them, that was a surprise ! As for the pool, I thought you were going up a couple of terrasses, and look , or swim, but that natural pool seems a bit shallow, as I remember. You were probbly also up there for a peek?
    Anyway, good for you get away for a spell, so enjoy the rest of the Eytalian Adventure and allda bestest from mikke....
