I wanted to put out at least a couple of videos from the road like this, even though I have others done already. Its been a fun and wild ride so far! After St Augustine, headed up to Fernandina Beach and then off to Destin / Panama City Beach. See you guys in the next one!
Please do vids on PCB and Destin!
Y'all would love the Garden of Eden Trail in Bristol- if you happen to pass through.
This house is great! Airbnb is always preferable to some hotel on a commercial road. I know you love St Augustine and 2 nights here will only cement that desire. Very nice you are walking distance to George St and all that the historic district has to offer. I cannot recall too much about the beaches there, though enjoyed the ocean view from the Fort. Fernandina Beach also has a great historic district, and the beaches at Destin (especially Graybar) are very nice - you can see both a sunrise & sunset over the Gulf, as Destin faces south. Enjoy the trip!
@@jdhjimbo Yes this is a fabulous little house, was totally better than a hotel. I really wanted to make it to Fernandina, but I am restructuring the trip so we can stay at least 2 nights in each area, and we might have to skp. it... But its been a lot of fun so far!
@@FlipTables-rc7pv I certainly will, in fact we're heading there next
I assumed you meant this summer since everyone takes vacations in the summer so I was surprised to see you already made it to St Augustine and I’ve only been to Fernandina beach once so I’m curious what you’ll say about it. Not much surfing there as far as consistent waves bigger than waist high so I don’t go there much but it’s a popular tourist spot. I gave a jump start to a European couple on holiday when I was there
I used to wait tables at Harrys in downtown st augustine 6 years ago, went to high school 30 minutes south of there. I could 100% see you being a local there, you’d fit right in with your laidback beach bum vibes. (not calling you a bum 😂 but you know what I mean) haha
We were just there last night, place was packed! Yes I would love it here, but don't know if it will happen. Prices are getting outa control here. I'll be talking about that soon, and I know what you mean 😉
Bought here last September .. Great place to live
Truly amazing people and atmosphere. Saint Augustine is great 👍
That is awesome Blaine, which area of town? The vibe here is like nowhere else I've been in FL!
St. Augustine is a beautiful city, lots of history.
Yes it is!
Saint Augustine, the oldest city in the U.S., been going there since I was a little girl. Born and raised in FL, now live in the cold NW. Its very commercialized now but I still love it, you can just smell the history, esp at the Spanish fort and graveyard. Still my favorite place ever!!
Even though its the oldest place, somehow it never gets old right😉
This is a super cool place to live...No stress,cool neighbors...Great boating both Ocean,Lakes...Sports;College,NFL...Great music live concerts...Just a laid back environment...Welcome to St Augustine...Enjoy..
It sure is! Thanks for your kind message
Beautiful!! Could you do a driving tour of St Augustine?
Thanks for the request, just did it, will be up soon 👌
It would be very diffcult to do a driving tour. Traffic is brutal. In 40 years I have never seen it like this. The restaurants are packed and have no staff. You can't walk down St. George Street. Oh, the BOL you say? In Davis Shores? I live here also. Too crowded now . But enjoy your stay, it's a nice place to visit , beaches are pretty.
@@susannbasta2972 I did enjoy my stay for sure, but I have a few more videos coming about the area, talking about the things you mentioned here
I have only seen videos of St Augustine, but it looks very beautiful and charming. Definitely have plans to check it out. I also like how the buildings have northern style structure, as opposed to south Florida where the structure is different due to hurricanes. My husband says some of the houses remind him of Flintstones homes lol. I do miss seeing a lot of brick homes. I hope you get this house. I would love to see more St Augustine!
You definitely have to come visit here sometime. The architecture is also different because of how old the city is, some of the houses over 200 years old! Doesn't seem like I'll get this one, but I'll keep looking 😊 More vids on here coming soon!
@@MichaelBordenaro oh wow did not know that. Is St Augustine an older city in Florida?
@@donnahollywood8007 Hey Donna!🤗
It’s the nation’s oldest city. It was founded in September 1565.😉
@@donnahollywood8007 Yes in fact the oldest in the U.S.
@@Lisithedogwalker that Is cool to know! And such a beautiful city!
St. Augustine is one the best cities in Florida. I would move there if it wasn't so expensive and there were more jobs.
It really is, and I'll be talking about that soon!
All the jobs I found have been sub $20 an hour unfortunately but lots of $10 an hour jobs with no career potential are available
@@jonahhex9620 That looks to be the case from my pov as well
It won't surprise me that one day Mike B moves to Saint Augustine.
Haha yes I don't think it would surprise me either 😉
Beautiful modern home, love the front door
It was a lucky find, really happy we got to stay here 😊
I just closed on a house just like this one in St. Pete! Super similar, open kitchen with a bar, large backyard, front porch... super sweet!
Yes congrats to you, thats awesome!
Yea!!! Good for you guys! You were finally able to get to your favorite city! I hope you get to move there, if that is your hearts desire! 😊
Thank you Jen! It feels nice to be here again, but things have changed a bit. I'll be reporting on it soon👌
Absolutely LOVE your channel!
Thank you for the videos. SO HELPFUL! 🤗🙏🏽
Thank you very much Leeza!!😀
Awesome! Would love to see a driving tour if able, or any kind of vid. St. Augustine is on my "to visit" list!
More of St Augustine coming soon, stay tuned !
omg I aready loves the patio lights blinking !!!!!
That is a nice place to spend a vacation week. It would make a nice income property, if the numbers work for you. Enjoy my friend. Thanks for the insight into St Augustine.
yes I need to get back here for week just in St Augustine to really enjoy it. I am pretty sure the numbers would work, but getting a property here, that is another story
That's a nice bathroom. I like those walk-in showers. I'm not much of a tub person. It's different if it's a jacuzzi, but a small tub isn't one. 😅 I like grilling.
wow nice house. I was in St. Augustine Florida a couple of years ago and it was beautiful.
Yes it is lovely there 😀
Good to see you and Liz.. I've had St Augustine on my bucket list to check it out because on one of your previous videos you indicated St Augustine as somewhere you would consider living... Thanks for taking us along and sharing great info as always.... BTW dude... its like you getting younger...
Thank you! Yes I will have more on St Augustine coming real soon. Thanks for you compliments 😊
Beautiful place!! So excited about your trip!!❤️
Yes it sure is!!
Nice! Enjoy your road trip guys.
Waiting for more videos. 😊
Thank you very much! Dropping a new one momentarily
Thank you ❤️😎
This beautiful house could do more than a 3:47 video...Michael!!!
Yes I know but time is limited and I have a TON of videos coming 😀
Wow , what a beautiful house. Enjoy it.
Thank you Geo, I will
Wow! So beautiful!!
Such a beautiful cottage! It would be awesome to own. The only thing it's missing is a pool 🏊♀️ I wonder how much it's worth?
Funny you ask the value, seems like it probably "costs" more than its "worth". I'll be talking about that soon...
@@MichaelBordenaro doesn't everything right now? 😂
@@ChrisInvests Haha well maybe to some extent, but here in particular lol
Wow! That place is beautiful! I’m so happy for you two, hope you enjoyed your stay. Looking forward to seeing the Florida adventures!
It was fantastic Ralphie! LOTS of videos to come !
@@MichaelBordenaro THIS IS AWESOME, Lol.
@@TheRalphie2020 I think so too! Its been quite a trip so far! Can't wait till I can get all the videos out😀
@@MichaelBordenaro I bet!!! Hope y’all got to enjoy the food after shooting all the cool footage! 😀😎🍷
Wow, gorgeous!
So beautiful, thank you for this nice video.
It is a gorgeous place!
Wow the house is awesome! 🏡 🌴
It really is!
Love it!! St augustine is beautiful 😍
It really is!
Beautiful place!
So beautiful house....st.augustine tour is coming 😁
You know it!
Less crowded and riff raff than Miami I don't think you fit into the Miami scene
You're definitely right about that!
St. Aug grows on you. If I did not have my business in Ocala, I would either be in St Aug or St George Island, or maybe Apalachicola.
At least being in Ocala you can take a trip to either spot much easier than I can from Miami👍
@@MichaelBordenaro , Ocala is a great location I can be on either coast in a short period of time, and buffered from hurricanes too.
@@hawkeye5829 That is a good thing about Ocala for sure!
Great video Michael loved that airbnb
Thanks a lot Miguel! Yes it is a great little place to stay😀
That is perfection !!!
Its a about as close as you can get I think😊
Very cool! That is a huge yard and nice looking place that you’ll be staying at. I love St. Augustine! Have you been to the Ice Plant Bar? Great food and cocktails there.
The place is excellent, I love it here too Camille! No, we haven't been to Ice Plant Bar, have to be next time, we're already off to Destin tomorrow
Beautiful home!
I think so too!
I would love to see a video on the Palm Coast area. Seems like it’s still affordable.
I went there yesterday and that is correct. I'll be talking about there too👍
My impression was Flagler beach was more affordable than the rest of Palm Coast. Inland Bunnel is undesirable. Coast is more expensive but worth it for weather and scenery
Great video as always Michael! I’d love to see a driving tour of downtown St. Augustine!
More a walking tour, as cars are not allowed on George St, the main drag - one of the things that make it great. No one wants to sit at an outdoor Cafe and breathe exhaust fumes, or listen to all the noise that cars/trucks/motorcycles make.
Thanks Linda its coming soon!
I wanted to do the walking tour so bad, but just ran out of time...I did one in the neighborhood I'm staying though across the bridge, hopefully everyone will still like it
@@MichaelBordenaro I loved the handmade cigars, too. There is always a lively scene in the historic district. I was in the area once on a Sunday, and had to park almost a mile away, but got to enjoy a great brunch on George Street.
@@jdhjimbo George st is where its at for sure! Such a cool little area😊
The best of both worlds Europe and la florida.seems st augustines calling u.... Micheal take the plunge.
We'll see...with the way the prices are going there, I may be crossing it off my list
Very nice.... Moving right in... LOL!!!
I know right...I wish😄
Great video, Michael. I think this trip through Florida is a fantastic idea and will just continue to produce good results for your channel. St. Augustine is a city I am interested in and I hope that you will make some videos showcasing different areas around the city and maybe vlog a bit about why and what you like about that area of Florida. Also, I am hoping you made some content on the space coast around Melbourne/cocoa beach. Keep up the very good work.
Wow, you read my mind! All of that is coming and thanks for kind wishes on the channel Nate😀
@@MichaelBordenaro The Satellite beach up to St Augustine is my favorite mostly due to surfing although the really good surfing is in Sebastian and in winter at Palm Beach and Del Rey Beach
Yeah I’m Space Coast is my fav
@@jonahhex9620 I can see that for sure, the surf was pretty good a couple days ago in st augustine
Hi Lizzie! 👋
Beautiful house! You should definitely buy yourself a single house, so much better than paying condo fee 😍
That's the plan!
Please do a walking, and a driving tour of St. Augustine. If you are able to find the time.
We were planning to go there. But then the pandemic happend, and scandinavians was not allowed into the us.
Have been to Florida multiple times, but never to St. Augustine.
Thanks for the request Morten because of comments like yours I took some extra time and did just that, some driving and walking coming soon! Sorry you couldnt come in person yet
@@MichaelBordenaro Wow that sounds great. Im definitely looking forward to those kind of videos.
We are a couple, who are both health care professionals. And we are planning to move to Florida. But covid has pushed the plans further into the future unfortunately.
But im hoping you are the realtor, who is going to fix us up with a house or a condo when it is time.
I work in St Augustine so if you take a night time tour I might be your guide
Nice home I’d love to be there too!! Can you talk about how you and Lizzie keep your relationship strong if you don’t mind, tips for a great romantic relationship I need that. The vid may not have as many views but we need words of encouragement in this crazy world, think about it please..
Just don't get married!
Hey Pondu, don't know if you saw this video or not, but check it out if you did not ua-cam.com/video/yfl3t5J9vf0/v-deo.html
@@MichaelBordenaro OK Super I go look!!!
@@soniadowney7427 very funny 😃 humans need love and affection, live partners it’s just the way we are wired.
nice. tour. (MIKEY) ✌🏾. yes. would dev flip flop that one LIZZYYY Home lmaoooo✌🏾. shout from NYC
Hiiiiii Lillyyy!!!🤗😄💕
Hey you made it to St Augustine this year! Except it’s unusually hot this week into next week
Yes!! Its ok, I am used to the heat, I live in Miami 😉
Nice! But you could’ve stayed right on the beach in St. Augustine for the same amount or less... then again, you guys live on the beach in Miami so probably would rather enjoy the change! 😊
Definitely wanted to get a feel for what it would be like to live in the neighborhood over there as I would buy a house there not a condo, and thats right, we are on the beach every day at home 😄
I've had my eyes on this place for the last couple years.
It's a beautiful area
Cool vid! Thx
Omg 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Pretty impressive that you've built 15,000 sub youtube channel with only an iPhone. Props to you man.
Thanks a lot Evan! I do what I can with what I have 👍
Owner is sitting pretty !’ ..,while cash is glowing and flowing in !great video Michael st. Augustine or not Florida is the place 2be enjoy this weekend with lucky beautiful girlfriend!!
When we go to road trips with my boyfriend we love it even more Bc the people snd weather ......we moved from chicago yeas ago !! 🌴🌸🌴🌸🌴🌸😍 🏄🏼🍸🌈 your personality is what made me subscribe to your channel!
Yeah they are! Hope to get something like it! I agree, so many great places here in FL, and can't wait to share more videos about it. Glad you made it out of IL and into paradise😎 Thanks a lot for the sub, so glad you enjoy my style 😉
Looking forward to your tour on this! I assume housing is crazy there too right now.....?
More St Augustine vids coming real soon, and yes the housing market is crazy and I'll be talking about that a lot...
Michael we are in St Augustine now renting a vrbo. I've read that the area you rented in amd I rented in ( historic) is not allowed unless it is a week long stay
You're probably correct, although enforcement is the biggest factor. If the area has a rule but is not enforced its almost like there is no rule. But that could be problematic for people if they start cracking down
I want this in ocala Fl.
That just might happen!
St. Augustine is great, oldest city in North America (first founded city in North America). How do you feel about Key West? I love the Keys.
Yes i really love it here, feels so different than anywhere else in FL. I don't care for Key West much because it gets extremely crowded and I'm not a fan of the isolation, especially if you need to evacuate. Wouldn't want to live there, but its nice to visit
@@MichaelBordenaro I agree, it's nice to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there either.
Glad the address did not have a 3rd "6" in it. 😎
Haha! Lisi said the same thing😆
More Lizzy please
Haha Ok, I know she will see this, lets see 😉
You need any footage from the water. I have a boat at shipyard I can take you out for a water tour.
Man I totally would have taken you up on your offer. Leaving now as I'm writing this😔. Raincheck?
@@MichaelBordenaro You bet. Anytime.
We also do a neighborhood gathering every Friday night in St Augustine Beach.
Safe travels to you. You do a great job with your videos
Gorgeous home...how much would that cost?
Fair market value is around $380k, but in the real world, probably 100k more due to the crazy real estate market here. I'll be talking about it soon...
You have a beautiful wife!!!
Yes I do!!😎
hello please make a video in jacksonville city??
Looks like it might get cut out of the trip unfortunately. Still a lot to cover
@@MichaelBordenaro but pls you make one video only??pls
You ever gonna move to St Augustine?
Maybe...I'll be talking more about it soon 👌
@@MichaelBordenaro Flagler beach is a bit chilly at times and the surfing isn’t great but it’s empty 99% of the time so I like going there to relax. Seems cheaper than anywhere else north of Daytona. But I have to be located by navy bases to use my veteran benefits so I’m limited to Jacksonville or Space Coast to use the commissary PX etc
@@jonahhex9620 My first impression of Flagler beach wasn't great, I was there for a little bit. I will make a video on that too. I would rather space coast than there
@@MichaelBordenaro agree it’s has not much to do, often overcast and cloudy but it’s main and only redeeming value is no crowds and easy parking. No surfing either. It just a beach place you don’t have to fight over for parking or space on the sand. It’s cooler than the surrounding area so sometimes cuts a heat mitigation spot. I was unhappy about how hot St Augustine was this week not even summer but the weather report says the heat will be over in a week. Of course it’s small potatoes compared to Miami but California weather has spoiled me
@@jonahhex9620 I hear you and can see that on flagler. You are definitely spoiled by CA weather! Just when I spend a month there I get spoiled 😄
Do you have a link to that Airbnb?
What you think what a house like that normaly would costs
The real cost is around $400k, but the house next door just listed today for $550k 😱
Thank you😁🤑
How far from beach?
Is there a link to this house to look up on Airbnb
I don't think there is a way to paste a link here to one of my past trips. Airbnb doesn't seem to have that option
@@MichaelBordenaro how can I find that house? What information can you share so I can look it up? With you making a video and it being a very nice place of course people are going to want to rent it also.
@@jblackshe1 I'm not sure really, bc the way airbnb works is it will only show places that area available for your dates and match your criteria. Start with St. Augustine and go for "entire place" and see what comes up
What neighborhood is this house in?
Davis Shores
What's the cost of rent?
Very expensive....!!!
From what I can tell if it were for rent, the monthly would be somewhere between 2500 - 3000/mo in the current market
@@MichaelBordenaro
So.....only the rich need apply making living in Florida astronomical to the average person. And our nation caters to the wealthy, leaving the rest out in the streets.
Mexico does the exact opposite as the majority of Latinos don't have incomes that can be 'gouged', making it more than affordable to average Americans.
Only in America is 'gouging' the rich a national past time, but oh how the rest suffer.
It should not be this way..it is wrong and ever increases those who are bound in poverty.
But..where Mar-a--Lago exists, so goes the State..right?
@@thebabaa5001 It definitely is getting that way in a lot of places, but not everywhere in FL. I have already been in areas that are more affordable, which I'll be talking about in future vids. But places like this, that is exactly whats going on...
@@MichaelBordenaro
I could openly state much more on this subject..but will keep this mininal; housing of any kind in America..vacationing included, is beyond ridiculous.
And I hold those who willingly shell out said astronomical prices accountable.
Somebody is making tons of profit..
At the expense of those who cannot..never have, nor now can
afford said prices.
Food for thought;
One day that 'have not' might just be you.
When are you going to show us SFL here were you live? Let someone who lives in St Augustine show St Augustine. This doesnt make any sense. I wanted to see SFL. You and Barefoot Vlogger are showing every place except SFL. Way more to do here than anywhere.
Soft mattresses are the worst! 👎
Michael hates it! He got lucky with this one 😁
