Good place to go to for beginning of Portugese Way of The Camino. We went to first to Fatima and then after to Valenca on the border with Spain where we started, me, my wife and our boys 3 & 6 years old, April 2023.
I recall Porto as very steep. I spent a lot of time climbing up and down. And it was full of tiny cats. But mainly it is a traditional starting point of the Caminho Portuguese. That means I saw a lot of the beaches there. They are nice. You walk along these wooden bridges along the water, with all of these gorgeous beaches. Lovely.
It is very steep, up and down! That is why we factored in mid day naps :).
Great video Travelling young. - some amazing sights and things to do.
The sopranos... Best tv show ever!
It was fun to rewatch it all!
Thank you❤headed there in a few months.
Speaking of TV shows. My favorite is White Collar - did you watch that? They filmed in NYC, and so my friend and I used the show as our "guide" to our 3rd vacation in the city. We simply went to as many locations from the show as possible to get away from the touristy track and see NYC from a different angle. That was pretty cool and we went everywhere from a boardwalk and a university way up in the Bronx to an industrial area in Long Island to random streets in Downtown Manhattan.
Cool, my country and my families' region of origin in Portugal before moving to US then, to Danmark.
Great! Now I want to go to Porto! ;-) What did *I* do at Easter? Not much except meet with the neighbours on the beach where we cooked eggs, grilled frankfurters, drank beer and generally enjoyed a sunny day.
I watch you livestream as a rerun, and I really like that Joshua finally true watching the sopranos got the thing about wearing a hat indoors!
I really like your descriptions of you travel’s and there is no doubt that food takes up quit a bit of course besides the drinks.
I have a suggestion to atopic that you might take up and that is hobbies, because some times you have mentioned it like Joshua’s playing the guitar or Miranda’s dollhouse collection or the Lego creations that you both from time to time has mentioned.
Or perhaps a Sci-fi program since that has been mentioned to.
Thanks for an always great entertainment.
Ha, I still think it’s ridiculous for folks to care if I wear my hat inside - but Tony Soprano commands a certain level of respect :).
That is a good idea to include in livestreams - hobbies, how we spend free time, etc.
Thanks for watching!
@@TravelinYoung I just thought it was nice that your Italian blood kick in and you got it. 😉 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤️
I was there too, after missing 3 flights
Thanks for the Porto tour. We were there in 2019 and found it to be a very enjoyable city. Good exercise for sure and the food is pretty good too. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Happy to! And it is a wonderful place.
Nice got the sandwich with the Beer Gravy.
Also port wine is cheeper at the German border stores. than it is in the airport in Porto. For the same brand and age 10 and 20 years old ( if the have the Brand in that store ) found that out by buying port in the airport to. ( scam )
Some years ago I visited Porto, and as a collector of Special Ports, I had high hopes! But sadly it was mostly exported also to Denmark, so anything but the most ordinary types was hard to find. We had a lunch in a farm with gigantic, but empty wooden barrels (No craftsmen to keep them tight any more!) so the actual wine was in anonymous, stainless metal tanks kept at other places.
I also visited The Beach with the present Record High surf wave! But it was so flat that the few surfers hadn't any fun.
The market name was (probably) Bulhão, and I'm deeply sad that you didn't liked the Francesinha. Missed the visit to Torre dos Clérigos, and white Port (and red, among other variations) can also be found in some more larger Føtex 😉 (signed: Portuguese and ex Siteimprover 😅)
Never been to Porto, but would like to go. Have been in Spain a dozens of time.
My (weird) dream:
Vacation in a small Portuguese city and each morning just sit outside a café in the sun, and get my coffee there. Pretend reading in a Portuguese newspaper and just sit and relax for an hour or more.
I have been thinking at this scenario for years, and why Portugal? I don't know. Maybe the language, I like the sound of Portuguese.
I might travel down there in this fall, I have a good eye to Estoril.
I was in Porto a long time ago - the only thing I remember is that we ate watermelon filled with booze on the beach and they cost next to nothing
I worked throughout Easter, would have loved to go to Portugal, as it is a fabulous country!
The people, the music, the architecture & the food 😳🥰
- Porto is one of my favorite cities, there too! 💚
If you ever have the opportunity to see a football game or a concert, at Estadio do Dragão...GO!
I know, most people want to sit by the pitch, but I recommend going up into the bleachers, it is such an experience!!
hello from Hundested 🌸
I have seen a match in Lisbon, but Porto was playing away the weekend we were there.
@@TravelinYoung a great reason to take a trip back! 🤣
Have you tried the salumeria in Lyngby? It is called Da Basso, on the corner of Likørstræde.
Not yet, but we’ve walked by it a bunch of times and each time we tell ourselves we need to go!
Try redportwine with ris alamand all cold (with 1 mandel🤠) at christ mas . I it is very commen in DK
there's a fantastic steak restaurant in porto called boots and beer. best steak i ever had....
Two of my favorite things :).
I’ve never been to Portugal but I hope to see much more of it when we move to Spain. It looks so beautiful ♥️
What is your favourite country in Europe you’ve visited yet ? The country that ticked all the things you love ?
Josh here - I’ve loved every place I’ve been, for different reasons. But France has always been my favorite.
@@TravelinYoung ahh France is amazing and it doesn’t matter where in France you are the country, the people, the food, the smell is amazing.
I feel like you missed out on visiting the many portwine brewerys and drinking free samples :D Or was that on purpose?
Well we visited one and got some free samples. Otherwise we also wanted to relax a bit.
Off topic...Did you paint the dining room? If so, very nice color.
Ah, we haven’t painted anything yet since moving. But I do have some Nanoleaf lights in there and I set the color to be a warm. I hoped it would add a little subtle depth.
@@TravelinYoung it definitely did and looks great.
