i really loved this video. It surprised me because i was honestly not a huge fan of your older videos (exept gardening). I love it when you (and Nicole) speak about your feelings, problems and joys on this journey while also showing us the beautiful nature surrounding you. Much love from Germany.
South West France looking for woofing couple, we are raw vegans, growing almost all our own stuff www.sens-en-eveil.fr if you fancy coming to Gascony for a while, we have a super bedroom with unsuit 2 dogs lots of land and lots of work; One hour from the pyerenees! Get in touch
That sounds awesome Patricia.. one year earlier and i would have went with my girlfriend - we even speak french because i am half belgian haha. So sad i have no time anymore right now
I see a lot of complaining at the new content but honestly, some of the best innovators in food forests, permaculture, growing food .. have travelled to loads of different countries before finding new methods and unique perspectives that have helped all of this become accessible to the layman.. I say you are doing great, keep it up and it will be fun to see what you end up building
Hmm ok so do you throw away a book when you are in that first third where you are still interested but things get a little slow, or do you keep reading? When your typically comedic relief buddy gets at a stage where he’s just working to get things done, do you say “screw your man, you used to be funny” and drop him like a hot potato? There’s SO much content you could be exploring on UA-cam and just check in on this channel until it meets your standards. No need to whine that your court jester is taking some time to himself
He's not my court jester, nor am I interested in his content, period. I only watched this one video of his, found it uninteresting, and am moving on. That is all.
Love the way you harvested the Lavender sustainably. Leaving some for the bees! Thank you from an old bee keeper. I am sure the bees will also thank you in their own way. You have a good heart.
I born in small town in the country side of Portugal grew up in Porto but currently living in Canada Toronto. I hope ur guys enjoying Portugal. Miss my Country so much. Viva Portugal.
This is amazing. Even i am not vegan, but you are so inspired. Your gf and you are so brave people. Not everybody have a gut to sold everything, leave behind what made them comfortable and start new journey. Thanks for sharing.
The fact that these horse keepers used boots is very impressive; I really should have expected it though, coming from people who are living this lifestyle. I also noticed that one of the horses was rideable without the use of painful metal bits in his mouth, which is awesome. As a longtime horsekeeper, I must say, these horses are well taken care of and very lucky to have such humans. Horses are so abused by every nation of the world, this is true, but if one has an understanding of these creatures, and there is mutual respect for each other and a trusting relationship, horses do not mind being ridden because it is not a burden to them but can be rather quite bonding and rewarding for them.
On a comfort level, the horse should wear boots on all four hooves. Depending upon the terrain, one can use two boots on the front, but it is not optimal for a horse because a horse carries his load on his back end and will begin to shift in order to ease discomfort, so this is why all fours should be equal. I bet his horses have no issues with hoof condition so it is no problem to use only two boots on short little rides he and his wife take in terrain that he is familiar with. Metal shoes are the worst thing ever used on a horse in most cases, although they serve their purpose to a degree short term, but we all know that people keep their horses shod 24/7 because they lack knowledge and believe that metal shoes are a good thing. Injury is the result, and the horse world does not want to own this fact. My horse's shoes were promptly removed upon his delivery when I purchased him; he has not had them since (8 years) and the first thing anyone notices about him is the remarkable health of his hooves. I should add that as the vegan man said, some horses are not for riding. The Arabian breed should be ridden strictly by humans that are small like jockeys, because this horse has thin legs and is generally slender and not a load bearing animal.
Metal bits in a horse mouth do not hurt a horse when used properly! The bit does not rest on it teeth it sits on a tough gummy gap of tissues between the front incisors and back grinding teeth. A simple curb strap under the horses jaw tightens up when you pull back on the reins but it doesn't hurt the horse it just tells him to slow down or stop. Like you talking to your child in an instructional tone or warning tone. Same thing. Horses can work just like humans. Let's not deify horses it's ridiculous.
I sold everything in 1990 and traveled a bit and finally immigrated to Turkey where I am now a naturalized citizen and live permanently. Never looked back.
You and Nicole are angels! Such a beautiful couple with compassionate souls. I can feel the kindness of your souls from a distance! Very uplifting! Thank you!! Your vibe attracts your tribes, your mates, people in your 3rd dimensions.
I was in Lisbon,Portugal Last year 2019. Took a Cruise voyage from NY Via transatlantic. First Stop was ponta Delgada Azure, an island on the Middle of the Atlantic And portugal. Was Amazing experience. Enjoy your journey.
Wow Jake, this brought me to tears! My wife and I spent 10 days in Portugal last year and we loved it!!! The people, the food, the wine and the country is beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing! ❤
Not something I'd ever do, but I admire your "back to the land" focus and being naturalists. I'm an old 70's hippy, but I like the USA. Enjoy your learning experience and your attachment to the earth. Very cool.
Debah Noln me too! I sold organic lettuce to a store on Telegraph Ave in 1971! I love that this movement is coming back, I hope it can make some basic changes in food production
I also lived in AZ for 11 years, and before in MT for 3, and NJ for way too many more. I should have left for Portugal a long time ago. It's been almost 1 year since I sold all and left the USA. Don't miss it a bit. Love my Portugal!! 😍 Good luck to you guys- Hope you stay forever!🤗
So appreciate the farm owners and their love of horses. I can tell the horses are well taken care of. To see their expressions unlike the way horses elsewhere are treated; the horses in this video are present and have working minds. May all other animals be so loved.
Excellent, we have lived in Portugal off-grid for about 4 years and absolutely love it. It's not always easy, but we love our life here. I see this video has quite a few thumbs down clicks, why would anyone dislike this video.
This is my country Portugal! Beautiful Alentejo 😍is a paradise ! When I was young I used spend my vacation in Évora ( Alentejo )! But USA is amazing and beautiful country too♥️
I LOVE your video and the music. The host and hostess at nobu tero are so cute couple. I loved you filmed them on riding horses. You and Nicole are living life! Keep going!!!
That's exactly what I did I moved to Spain after having multiple intestinal surgeries in New york, I sold everything and moved to Valencia spain a year ago I gained 12 pounds since I cane. God bless u guys
Sure it is - but most Portuguese are too busy working to enjoy it - average wage is less than 400 euro pm. Rich lifestyle vloggers can afford to kick back tho....eating organic whateva & flying drones...
Go. You can do it. So many of us spend money foolishly. $5 for a cup of coffee. That's $150 a month. Just a few months you got your tickets. When you say YES, their is endless possibilities. We all know how our life story ends. It is your job to make the story interesting before the book ends. Peace.
hy , you know you are wrong , minimal wage is 550 euros , and thats what social security gives you , normal wage is between 850 and 1300 euros , when you pay 300 euros for a 2 bed room apartment its ok , you can eat at a restaurant for 25 euros a couple .
Parece-me que você nao deve viver em Portugal, ou então desconhece a realidade dos ordenados em portugal. essas estatisticas de ordenados estão muito inflacionadas.
Mr Jake I watch your video in usa and now u are off to the world , just want to said you are a amazing person, wishing you all the luck and happiness as u travel thru the other side of the country stay safe and take care.
A lot of people now prefer living in rural than in cities. It is less stressful in rural. We will surely share this video with our customers for them to get awesome ideas from you. Thanks for this video!
"Cherimoya" is a fruit that grows easily in my home island, the DOMINICAN REPUBLIC in the Caribbean. We called it GUANABANA, and it is delish; taste like banana+pear. Very powerful fruit to fight all diseases, especially CANCER. Congratulations on your move to Portugal! July 20, 2018
But the Dominican Republic has a higher rate of cancer than the US, and we don't have that fruit here. How to explain that? www.worldlifeexpectancy.com/cause-of-death/all-cancers/by-country/
KLK pasa Iluminada? Hello from Canada...missing a lot Puerto Plata...:) Jake...fulfill your dreams man. Keep doing what your heart tells you...all the best wishes !!!
@@teaearlgrey9052 maybe not everyone eats Guanabana? Maybe they smoke more?. Just because they have a Higher Cancer Rate than the US, doesnt mean the fruit doesnt fight Cancer.
Amazing video Jake mace I've been watching you for over 6 or 5 years , can't remember but they are awesome thank I love the music and your tours. Thank you😊
Congratulation guys, all good stuff, I had been to Portugal 4 times Lisbon mainly and love the country Im from the Cook Islands yea, but I live in NZ now
I think you can simply make a request for staying there, it’s not like people can’t live out of their countries, and anyway if they don’t let you, I’m 95% sure the Portugal government will not pay you a ticket to get you back in U.S.A., governments don’t do that so often
I have been watching some of your videos, off and on for a few years, and enjoyed them. your positivity is completely refreshing and contagious. i am a serious traveler w/ my family and so glad to finally see someone else take the plunge and practice what they preach. enriching your body with good food is the same as enriching your soul with traveling experiences. you will never be the same person after your travels and infuse your life with so many priceless experiences. its also a great way to discover yourself and your partner. DO NOT let anyone discourage you w/ their negativity or opinion about what you used to do and why you have chosen to take this new path or journey. all of the negative comments below are just NOISE. i wish you nothing but the very best in your adventure and keep moving, learning, struggling and discovering. no one will ever look back on their life and wished they had not learned or tried to do something great when they had the chance. so exciting for you and Nicole!
@@megmurphy3270 I liked the US I had great times met great people but at the moment its a divided country if this keeps going it will crumble no empire lasted forever
I love that you are such an advocate for animals! Loved seeing that you ask animal lovers questions that make them think about how they are treating their animals, yet you are not confrontational... Such as if they have thought about whether it is ethical to force a horse to carry them around on their backs. I'm sorry to hear that you are no longer in AZ... Looks like you are having a lot of fun though! Blessings to the both of you & may you have a safe adventure. What you teach is very valuable.
I watched your Tai Chi videos more than a year ago. Last week I started Tai Chi again and now this video popped up. I'm very happy that you took the leap and went on this journey, I'm sure it will bring you much peace and change you a lot. Enjoy! I will be looking forward to more of these chill almost meditative videos :)
Thank you for posting and sharing your adventures. You are hardworking and brave and adventurous. Wishing you both the very best. Nicole is so brave, too. It’s not easy for a woman to face the unknown in this way, but you two have a strong bond. I love your insightful comments at the end of your video. I love your Vision for your future. May you always be guided.
Wisnu, how about the incredible content displayed in this video you just watched? Insights into my life, Portugal, a family farm, and unique travel vlog which comes at a considerable cost and offered to you here for free!
navarra1969 I can also block whoever I want and this is not a free country it’s my UA-cam channel… so I’ll be blocking any comments/people I choose! ;)
I’ve enjoyed watching your gardening shows in the past back in Arizona. And also the dogs. Thank you. Sorry to hear of your divorce. It must have been painful to leave your wife and 4 dogs and the beautiful garden. All the best to you and your family.
Awesome, I moved from the Azores Islands, off the coast of Portugal back to BC, Canada. They offer woofing also in the Azores Islands and the local produce is amazing too with the same wild gooseberries and cherimoyas. Enjoy! 😊
Portugal is a lovely country I don’t understand why the Portuguese they came to London not complaining just more space for me😘..... I hope I marry a Portuguese Maybe one day🤞🏻
If you want to have a life, (Please don´t marry) with a Portuguese women, my advice is try with a Portuguese women living outside Portugal! Here it´s extremely hard, and the mentality can be completely different of what you think about Portuguese! Think twice and research a lot because you are only seeing the tip of the iceberg! Good Luck! :)
Excellent video, thx for sharing!!! Yes, I lived in California for many years, now live in Spain, on the outskirts my house is 20 meters from the forrest, yeah, quality verses quantity type of thing. Came here to help my parents out, they are at that age where they need me now... This whole change of life style has been for the better, thank God :-) Portugal is fantabulous actually :-) Stay safe from virus, and stay healthy, take care as we are in very strange times... May happiness follow the both of you where ever you may be on this miracle earth...
hello sir how r u i wanted to say something ur kung fu videoes helped me a lot with bullies but as u said after defeating them I didn't become a Bully. I made them friends so i just wanted to say thank you
hypnostream, if you don't know what you are looking for, you should ask for that knowledge. The only thing worth finding is Truth. What is Truth? If you don't know, which most of us don't, you should search for it. Truth seeks us even more that we seek it.
My best opportunity is here (abroad), my body is totally here, BUT my heart in mind is not here. That's why, until now couldn't able to speak the local foreign language for my 5 years stay, still weak in learning the language. I sure myself bcos the country that give me the best compensation (better than USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, UK) is not soul's belong. Except my own home country, my heart and mind always says, go find ur desire country where ur soul's find a haven and heaven, a perfect picturesque where ur whole human body is full. I am into with the locals everywhere here, and had local language classes and now my second schooling again. But my heart and mind not interested at all! Even If I should learn for communicating the locals who couldn't able to speak any English.
This is the first video I have seen. So I do not know any videos prior to this on this channel. I am surprised by some people’s negative comments. I think what you and your partner have done is amazing and some people are just jealous! You are being “in the moment” which is what everyone should do more of! You don’t owe anyone anything so keep doing what you are doing! Then when you feel like it you can take all these experiences and photos and possibly write a book! So many options such little time on this planet!
I am glad you enjoyed Portugal, I could almost feel the breeze of the eucalypt trees, very unique feeling. I used to suffer from ashma and those eucalypt leaves saved my life multiple times when I was a kid .
The smartest American I ever came across on the Internet! Proud to see an American realizing this dream! America in my opinion is a place where there is control everywhere, its a police state, bills coming through the post almost everyday, rules for everything, uncle Sam on our tails all the time! Some americans are cool people, but when your live here in America , the American friendliness goes away! Why? In general people are not warm, not that caring, there is no trust, neighbors dont talk to each other! In America, its all about the money you have, not who you are as a person! Portugal is indeed a friendly nation, Portugal does not advertise bullshit food like they do in the States! Portugal offers peace, tranquility , peace of mind when you live there, its a great country! Portuguese work to live, In America, Americans live to work! Remember the old saying: LIVE THE AMERICAN DREAM, The thing is that you have to be asleep to believe it! I recommend anyone to experience living in Portugal, great people, great food, peace, no cops everywhere, great beaches, and plus you feel alive in Portugal! Well done my man! i dont blame you for leaving Arizona! Its too hot there! Arpaio is there too, busy catching up with all the Mexicans crossing the border to steal american jobs and get benefits! ahahahhaa Viva Portugal caralho!
Amazing video and being portugues you have show me different side of my country. Love the energy from you and Nicole. I look forward for my virtual tour with you guys. Thank you for the opportunity sharing this breathless experience. Madrid time 👏🏻😉
@Ted Carruthers that is what is great about the USA. We have freedom. I hear your freedom of speech is very limited and the Muslims are taking over in the UK.. Good luck to you !
That is awesome yes go go enjoy traveling and living Somewhere what you dream for. Also me too I’m planning move to Spain for life. I’m tried living USA y Latin America for 40 years. Ahhh that is crazy no more go back again. Have great day and god protect you both. Take care
Why are you mad? If you are content with your life, then more power to you! They were not. This is what makes them happy and somehow...it bothers you. Go figure! 🙄
They work in exchange for food and housing. Yup, so do we all, plus we work to pay for necessity's such as clothing, health care, maybe kids and saving for retirement. The difference is without an income they pay no taxes, so I hope they don't expect to take advantage of social benefits paid for by the Portuguese people as they are both very able and should financially contribute to society. Glad they are enjoying the adventure, but it's not a career. Doing the blog may be a career so good luck with that and I hope taxes are being paid like the rest of us.
What exactly did you sell?? Your bicycles? I opened your video expecting you really leave and farm in Portugal but you are just regular backpacker. All what we see you doing at ranch eat and wounder around. Hope you have solid plan for future otherwise your girl will leave you in nearest future.
Bless you on your journey. You will be missed here in Arizona I hope u reconsider coming back someday. But I also get why your on this adventure. Pray for you both. Your AZ friends.
a lot of people on youtube are breaking up and splitting up homesteads and finances because of a demanding life. I pray for us all and the resulting new lives people go to. No one teaches the emotions and challenges that come with our ever invasive and helpful and hurtful technologies and politics/government and economic forces that is sometimes outside of our recognition.
Hi! I just found your channel and I loved it! I'm vegan too and makes me sooo happy to find people like you guys that inspire us to keep this good life no matter what, because we all living creatures MATTER. Love and peace out.
Liz Rising don't feel sad there are many many many beautiful places on this planet we call home. Wwoof is an amazing way to see them and meet extraordinary people living "the green dream"
I’m in! Lol, awesome content, this is amazing to see someone impacting the world in this way, definitely inspiring for me, thank you thank you! Enjoy your travels 😉
Wow that's crazy that u moved, glad to see you are out there chasing your dreams. Most people only have plans and think about them but never take the big risks..
Hi Jake, Its such as pitty I didn´t know you were here in Portugal. I´d be glad to meet you and we could even have trainied Wing Chun in my academy. Well, wish you all the best for the rest of your trip and hope you come to Portugal again! Take care, Lio
Why so many hate because they left USA? They look happy, I wish I had the courage to do something like this! Great place and great video montage skills!
Try to mix with lemon peel and honey and if you like a little bit of ginger. Don't mix Lavander in big proportions. I hope you enjoy. ... hugs from alentejo
Good for you Jake (& Nicole!)! I went to one of your garden tours in AZ and learned so much. You’ll be missed in the desert, but I believe you two are onto bigger and better things! I look forward to watching more adventures with you guys; Godspeed!
jennifer b maybe not bigger and better, life does not have to get bigger and better, but different! Variety is the spice of life. I admire their courage!
This is amazing. I wasn't very active on your chanel lately but I have to say: 'change is good, it gives us a feeling of exploration/discovering something unknown to our current perception'. I'm really happy for you, which is pretty strange because we don't know each other and it seems that internet is our only connection. But to be honest, I thing it's far more than that! I feel this strong energy that is moving through nature and sending (not only me) but everybody that is watching you a message 'This person seeks the light and 80% of his body is pure love and sympathy'
You guys are doing an awful lot of smiling!!! Love it!!! Makes me smile and I'm sitting at a desk with a busy phone wanting to throw it against a wall!!!!
Bless my brother Jake.Life is for living and adventure. But plan it very well! Myself I would like to go live in the jungles of Indonesia,Brazil,Vietnam, America and Canada with the natives, Indians hunting,learning about the medicinal plants and survival strategies.

I was in Lisbon,Portugal
Last year 2019. Took a
Cruise voyage from NY
Via transatlantic. First
Stop was ponta Delgada
Azure, an island on the
Middle of the Atlantic
And portugal. Was
Amazing experience.
Enjoy your journey.
I'm Portuguese I love my country and it's very nice to see other people do is well enjoy
Good choice,Portugal is absolutely beautiful, great weather year round , and where the dollar ( euro ) goes a long way , also a 99% violence free
Wow Jake, this brought me to tears! My wife and I spent 10 days in Portugal last year and we loved it!!! The people, the food, the wine and the country is beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing! ❤
You make me want to be vegetarians. Love his wife for being so resourceful. I love living in the country no pressure or stressed
Wow makes me hungry Portugal is a beautiful country enjoy it
Not something I'd ever do, but I admire your "back to the land" focus and being naturalists. I'm an old 70's hippy, but I like the USA. Enjoy your learning experience and your attachment to the earth. Very cool.
Debah Noln me too! I sold organic lettuce to a store on Telegraph Ave in 1971! I love that this movement is coming back, I hope it can make some basic changes in food production
I also lived in AZ for 11 years, and before in MT for 3, and NJ for way too many more. I should have left for Portugal a long time ago. It's been almost 1 year since I sold all and left the USA. Don't miss it a bit. Love my Portugal!! 😍 Good luck to you guys- Hope you stay forever!🤗
I've never seen horse boots before. That's way cool! It seems a lot safer than having to nail shoes into their hoofs the way they used to be done.
So appreciate the farm owners and their love of horses. I can tell the horses are well taken care of. To see their expressions unlike the way horses elsewhere are treated; the horses in this video are present and have working minds. May all other animals be so loved.
Mister Jake Mace welcome to Portugal, I hope you can stay here with us for so many years. Bem Vindo :)
Excellent, we have lived in Portugal off-grid for about 4 years and absolutely love it. It's not always easy, but we love our life here. I see this video has quite a few thumbs down clicks, why would anyone dislike this video.
love you jake ,you are really living the Taoist-shaolin buddhist life! spiritual,vegetarian,Detached form materialsim ,nature lover,physical genius.
Welcome to Potugal. Now this country is also yours. Love for Both.
This is my country Portugal!
Beautiful Alentejo 😍is a paradise !
When I was young I used spend my vacation in Évora ( Alentejo )!
But USA is amazing and beautiful country too♥️
The US is indeed beautiful if you can just avoid it's population
Beautiful Portugal nice green fields great nature that still exist in this part of Europe
I LOVE your video and the music. The host and hostess at nobu tero are so cute couple. I loved you filmed them on riding horses. You and Nicole are living life! Keep going!!!
Sue Souvannavong right!? Did you feel the energy once the couple held hands as they rode the horses? Out of this world!😍😍😍
Thank you so much! The music takes a lot of time to find....I'll be making my own music very soon! Thanks for noticing!
That's exactly what I did I moved to Spain after having multiple intestinal surgeries in New york, I sold everything and moved to Valencia spain a year ago I gained 12 pounds since I cane. God bless u guys
You're so lucky! It's my dream to one day be able to live in Portugal! The most beautiful country in the world! ❤❤❤❤❤
Cinda Rocha.... Please,don't be exaggerated.....
Sure it is - but most Portuguese are too busy working to enjoy it - average wage is less than 400 euro pm. Rich lifestyle vloggers can afford to kick back tho....eating organic whateva & flying drones...
Go. You can do it. So many of us spend money foolishly. $5 for a cup of coffee. That's $150 a month. Just a few months you got your tickets. When you say YES, their is endless possibilities. We all know how our life story ends. It is your job to make the story interesting before the book ends. Peace.
hy , you know you are wrong , minimal wage is 550 euros , and thats what social security gives you , normal wage is between 850 and 1300 euros , when you pay 300 euros for a 2 bed room apartment its ok , you can eat at a restaurant for 25 euros a couple .
Parece-me que você nao deve viver em Portugal, ou então desconhece a realidade dos ordenados em portugal. essas estatisticas de ordenados estão muito inflacionadas.
Mr Jake
I watch your video in usa and now u are off to the world , just want to said you are a amazing person, wishing you all the luck and happiness as u travel thru the other side of the country stay safe and take care.
This was brilliant my man, excited to see more! Spain sounds like it'll be a blast
A lot of people now prefer living in rural than in cities. It is less stressful in rural. We will surely share this video with our customers for them to get awesome ideas from you. Thanks for this video!
"Cherimoya" is a fruit that grows easily in my home island, the DOMINICAN REPUBLIC in the Caribbean. We called it GUANABANA, and it is delish; taste like banana+pear. Very powerful fruit to fight all diseases, especially CANCER. Congratulations on your move to Portugal!
July 20, 2018
But the Dominican Republic has a higher rate of cancer than the US, and we don't have that fruit here. How to explain that? www.worldlifeexpectancy.com/cause-of-death/all-cancers/by-country/
Iluminada Williams you are right a lot of health benefits we called here guyabano
KLK pasa Iluminada? Hello from Canada...missing a lot Puerto Plata...:) Jake...fulfill your dreams man. Keep doing what your heart tells you...all the best wishes !!!
Grows here too in Jamaica.
@@teaearlgrey9052 maybe not everyone eats Guanabana? Maybe they smoke more?. Just because they have a Higher Cancer Rate than the US, doesnt mean the fruit doesnt fight Cancer.
Amazing video Jake mace I've been watching you for over 6 or 5 years , can't remember but they are awesome thank I love the music and your tours. Thank you😊
Congratulation guys, all good stuff, I had been to Portugal 4 times Lisbon mainly and love the country Im from the Cook Islands yea, but I live in NZ now
Tim Koia Awesome! Thanks 🙏🏼
Wellcome friend and good luck 🇵🇹👍
Question: how can you stay in Portugal long term, unless you have a EU passport?
I think you can simply make a request for staying there, it’s not like people can’t live out of their countries, and anyway if they don’t let you, I’m 95% sure the Portugal government will not pay you a ticket to get you back in U.S.A., governments don’t do that so often
I have been watching some of your videos, off and on for a few years, and enjoyed them. your positivity is completely refreshing and contagious. i am a serious traveler w/ my family and so glad to finally see someone else take the plunge and practice what they preach. enriching your body with good food is the same as enriching your soul with traveling experiences. you will never be the same person after your travels and infuse your life with so many priceless experiences. its also a great way to discover yourself and your partner. DO NOT let anyone discourage you w/ their negativity or opinion about what you used to do and why you have chosen to take this new path or journey. all of the negative comments below are just NOISE. i wish you nothing but the very best in your adventure and keep moving, learning, struggling and discovering. no one will ever look back on their life and wished they had not learned or tried to do something great when they had the chance. so exciting for you and Nicole!
Oh my goodness! Amazing! My dad’s family was from Madeira, his grandma was born on Maui. My dream trip would be to see all of Portugal!
Hi Lori ! You really need to do it ! It's such a incredible country
Mafalda Azevedo it is definitely on my priority bucket list!
You look Happy that is the ultimate goal of life...Stay Happy and blessed !
Nath N 🙏🏼
Welcome to Portugal! ❤️
can't wait until I sell everything and go back to my beautiful Portugal , been in the USA too long and the past year just basically sick of it
I was in Portugal once and loved it I’m curious what makes you not like U.S I could probably guess but would like to hear your opinion
@@megmurphy3270 I liked the US I had great times met great people but at the moment its a divided country if this keeps going it will crumble no empire lasted forever
I love that you are such an advocate for animals! Loved seeing that you ask animal lovers questions that make them think about how they are treating their animals, yet you are not confrontational... Such as if they have thought about whether it is ethical to force a horse to carry them around on their backs. I'm sorry to hear that you are no longer in AZ... Looks like you are having a lot of fun though! Blessings to the both of you & may you have a safe adventure. What you teach is very valuable.
That’s awesome I wish I could do the same. Still looking for that a Soulmate to do it all with, I’m ready 👍🏻. Enjoyed it very much!
I watched your Tai Chi videos more than a year ago. Last week I started Tai Chi again and now this video popped up. I'm very happy that you took the leap and went on this journey, I'm sure it will bring you much peace and change you a lot.
Enjoy! I will be looking forward to more of these chill almost meditative videos :)
Jake you two make a beautiful couple! Thanks for that beautiful video. May the good Spirit of the universe be with you
Thank you for posting and sharing your adventures. You are hardworking and brave and adventurous. Wishing you both the very best. Nicole is so brave, too. It’s not easy for a woman to face the unknown in this way, but you two have a strong bond. I love your insightful comments at the end of your video. I love your Vision for your future. May you always be guided.
big decision for you, enjoy your new life and dont forget coming up with new content soon
Wisnu, how about the incredible content displayed in this video you just watched? Insights into my life, Portugal, a family farm, and unique travel vlog which comes at a considerable cost and offered to you here for free!
Tired of the same content in Portugal jake....you must be struggling....muahahahhaha
chichalds Tired of your ignorant troll comments Hahahaha
navarra1969 I can also block whoever I want and this is not a free country it’s my UA-cam channel… so I’ll be blocking any comments/people I choose! ;)
I’ve enjoyed watching your gardening shows in the past back in Arizona. And also the dogs. Thank you.
Sorry to hear of your divorce. It must have been painful to leave your wife and 4 dogs and the beautiful garden.
All the best to you and your family.
Beautiful place
Everyone in this video seems so genuine and caring. Loved it! Hope you both enjoy your wonderful adventure. :D
Portugal is amazing. Peolpe is so kind and full of love . All the best for you .
Welcome to Portugal
Awesome, I moved from the Azores Islands, off the coast of Portugal back to BC, Canada. They offer woofing also in the Azores Islands and the local produce is amazing too with the same wild gooseberries and cherimoyas. Enjoy! 😊
Very inspiring, you guys understood it all. Thank you for this get away, keep it up.
Thanks!
Beautiful country ⭐️
Portugal is a lovely country I don’t understand why the Portuguese they came to London not complaining just more space for me😘..... I hope I marry a Portuguese Maybe one day🤞🏻
;)
If you want to have a life, (Please don´t marry) with a Portuguese women, my advice is try with a Portuguese women living outside Portugal! Here it´s extremely hard, and the mentality can be completely different of what you think about Portuguese! Think twice and research a lot because you are only seeing the tip of the iceberg! Good Luck! :)
Really, but how you see the portuguese women inside Portugal? Im curious now.
I did live outside with one, split up, but that is not her fault, nor mine I hope... Anyway I would like to live there one day.
Excellent video, thx for sharing!!! Yes, I lived in California for many years, now live in Spain, on the outskirts my house is 20 meters from the forrest, yeah, quality verses quantity type of thing. Came here to help my parents out, they are at that age where they need me now...
This whole change of life style has been for the better, thank God :-)
Portugal is fantabulous actually :-)
Stay safe from virus, and stay healthy, take care as we are in very strange times...
May happiness follow the both of you where ever you may be on this miracle earth...
hello sir how r u
i wanted to say something ur kung fu videoes helped me a lot with bullies but as u said after defeating them I didn't become a Bully. I made them friends
so i just wanted to say thank you
75 O2 so happy for you!❤🙏👏
Good for you!!!! You won't regret it! All the best...keep sending video updates
Viva Portugal
Si!!! Abrigado!
Off Grid Athlete tamos juntos 👌
the irony
Portugal was your best choice. Considered the safest and best country to live in. Enjoy
Searching is what the human soul does.....I hope you find the only thing worth finding.....it's not in your "self" and it's not in the "world"
Christina Perez most ppl who go searching for something never find it because to find what we truly need we have to already know what it is
hypnostream, if you don't know what you are looking for, you should ask for that knowledge. The only thing worth finding is Truth. What is Truth? If you don't know, which most of us don't, you should search for it. Truth seeks us even more that we seek it.
Christina Perez truth is facts but what we want is usually not what we really want ppl are lost today I feel
hypnostream , truly they are. And Truth encompasses all facts, and much more.
My best opportunity is here (abroad), my body is totally here, BUT my heart in mind is not here. That's why, until now couldn't able to speak the local foreign language for my 5 years stay, still weak in learning the language. I sure myself bcos the country that give me the best compensation (better than USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, UK) is not soul's belong. Except my own home country, my heart and mind always says, go find ur desire country where ur soul's find a haven and heaven, a perfect picturesque where ur whole human body is full. I am into with the locals everywhere here, and had local language classes and now my second schooling again. But my heart and mind not interested at all! Even If I should learn for communicating the locals who couldn't able to speak any English.
Beautiful beautiful vídeo!
Thank you both so much! Enjoy my Portugal and good food ,weather ,people, and many good things 😍
Love the content Jake keep up the great work .
Matt Harris Thanks Matt
This is the first video I have seen. So I do not know any videos prior to this on this channel. I am surprised by some people’s negative comments. I think what you and your partner have done is amazing and some people are just jealous! You are being “in the moment” which is what everyone should do more of! You don’t owe anyone anything so keep doing what you are doing! Then when you feel like it you can take all these experiences and photos and possibly write a book! So many options such little time on this planet!
Everybody like left off, in searching, while there's HOLY SPIRIT, waiting to reach your heart
I am glad you enjoyed Portugal, I could almost feel the breeze of the eucalypt trees, very unique feeling. I used to suffer from ashma and those eucalypt leaves saved my life multiple times when I was a kid .
The smartest American I ever came across on the Internet! Proud to see an American realizing this dream! America in my opinion is a place where there is control everywhere, its a police state, bills coming through the post almost everyday, rules for everything, uncle Sam on our tails all the time! Some americans are cool people, but when your live here in America , the American friendliness goes away! Why? In general people are not warm, not that caring, there is no trust, neighbors dont talk to each other! In America, its all about the money you have, not who you are as a person! Portugal is indeed a friendly nation, Portugal does not advertise bullshit food like they do in the States! Portugal offers peace, tranquility , peace of mind when you live there, its a great country!
Portuguese work to live, In America, Americans live to work!
Remember the old saying: LIVE THE AMERICAN DREAM, The thing is that you have to be asleep to believe it!
I recommend anyone to experience living in Portugal, great people, great food, peace, no cops everywhere, great beaches, and plus you feel alive in Portugal!
Well done my man! i dont blame you for leaving Arizona! Its too hot there!
Arpaio is there too, busy catching up with all the Mexicans crossing the border to steal american jobs and get benefits! ahahahhaa
Viva Portugal caralho!
A true example of LIVING LIFE TO THE FULLEST.
Wow! Amazing Video! Can't Wait for Spain!
I thought you already left Madrid?
Talking to yourself? Maybe you have NPD. Turn to Jesus.
Amazing video and being portugues you have show me different side of my country. Love the energy from you and Nicole. I look forward for my virtual tour with you guys. Thank you for the opportunity sharing this breathless experience. Madrid time 👏🏻😉
Lots of negative comments, lots of jealously i guess.
Agreed!
@Susie X then why watch? Haha! They can watch a different video.
Jeremy Ferguson Because this garbage gets put into the recommendations for some odd ass reason.
@Ted Carruthers that is what is great about the USA. We have freedom. I hear your freedom of speech is very limited and the Muslims are taking over in the UK.. Good luck to you !
You can live anywhere in the world...your choice, your happiness & business up to you and no one else
So many places to see in the world
Loved the video.. Safe travels Jake & Nicole.
That is awesome yes go go enjoy traveling and living Somewhere what you dream for. Also me too I’m planning move to Spain for life. I’m tried living USA y Latin America for 40 years. Ahhh that is crazy no more go back again. Have great day and god protect you both. Take care
superficial life-style - these people leave in their bubble of self-importance, thinking everything they do is of extraordinary significance
Why are you mad? If you are content with your life, then more power to you! They were not. This is what makes them happy and somehow...it bothers you. Go figure! 🙄
Star Gazer they just want to live of all of you and not have to do any real work. Hippies
👌🤣👍
Sand AL Yeah hippies pretty much
They work in exchange for food and housing. Yup, so do we all, plus we work to pay for necessity's such as clothing, health care, maybe kids and saving for retirement. The difference is without an income they pay no taxes, so I hope they don't expect to take advantage of social benefits paid for by the Portuguese people as they are both very able and should financially contribute to society. Glad they are enjoying the adventure, but it's not a career. Doing the blog may be a career so good luck with that and I hope taxes are being paid like the rest of us.
Portugal is definitely the right choice
What exactly did you sell?? Your bicycles? I opened your video expecting you really leave and farm in Portugal but you are just regular backpacker. All what we see you doing at ranch eat and wounder around. Hope you have solid plan for future otherwise your girl will leave you in nearest future.
Bless you on your journey. You will be missed here in Arizona I hope u reconsider coming back someday. But I also get why your on this adventure. Pray for you both. Your AZ friends.
a lot of people on youtube are breaking up and splitting up homesteads and finances because of a demanding life. I pray for us all and the resulting new lives people go to. No one teaches the emotions and challenges that come with our ever invasive and helpful and hurtful technologies and politics/government and economic forces that is sometimes outside of our recognition.
Hi! I just found your channel and I loved it! I'm vegan too and makes me sooo happy to find people like you guys that inspire us to keep this good life no matter what, because we all living creatures MATTER. Love and peace out.
I felt sad that you were leaving such a beautiful place!
Arizona or Nova Tero?
Liz Rising don't feel sad there are many many many beautiful places on this planet we call home. Wwoof is an amazing way to see them and meet extraordinary people living "the green dream"
The US aint the place that I personally consider "beautiful"
its not beatiful anymore
Thank you. You are totally inspiring me into going it alone. When you complain about America people tell you to leave. So I am obliging that request.
I’m in! Lol, awesome content, this is amazing to see someone impacting the world in this way, definitely inspiring for me, thank you thank you! Enjoy your travels 😉
Andrea Bella Thank you Andrea!
Wow that's crazy that u moved, glad to see you are out there chasing your dreams. Most people only have plans and think about them but never take the big risks..
When your born they programme you to a routine love what you do guy's nice one Jason uk
That's too true mate, a slave to society. Ben fogle new lives in the wold is really worth watching of you never have.
@@ronanthekarpathion1262 what?
Hi Jake, Its such as pitty I didn´t know you were here in Portugal. I´d be glad to meet you and we could even have trainied Wing Chun in my academy. Well, wish you all the best for the rest of your trip and hope you come to Portugal again! Take care, Lio
Loved the horse ride scene. Music score and drone shots were on point! Nice work Jake
WOLFTICKETS Thanks Wolf!!!
Why do you keep liking your own comment, Jake? 😂🤣
Why so many hate because they left USA? They look happy, I wish I had the courage to do something like this!
Great place and great video montage skills!
I don't see how she can drink lavender tea. Everytime I've tried to drink it I thought it tasted like soap!
Try to mix with lemon peel and honey and if you like a little bit of ginger. Don't mix Lavander in big proportions. I hope you enjoy. ... hugs from alentejo
Welcome to Portugal American brothers, I hope you are enjoying the stay in my country I wish you and your girlfriend all the best in Portugal 👍
Good for you Jake (& Nicole!)! I went to one of your garden tours in AZ and learned so much. You’ll be missed in the desert, but I believe you two are onto bigger and better things! I look forward to watching more adventures with you guys; Godspeed!
jennifer b 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🌱🌱🌱
jennifer b maybe not bigger and better, life does not have to get bigger and better, but different! Variety is the spice of life. I admire their courage!
I miss the food from my country, going to Portugal next week. I hope you guys enjoy staying at my dear country, wish you all the best
Pedro
Benvindo a Portugal!Where you will go in Portugal?I am now in Geneva but i come from Lisbon!
This is amazing. I wasn't very active on your chanel lately but I have to say: 'change is good, it gives us a feeling of exploration/discovering something unknown to our current perception'. I'm really happy for you, which is pretty strange because we don't know each other and it seems that internet is our only connection. But to be honest, I thing it's far more than that! I feel this strong energy that is moving through nature and sending (not only me) but everybody that is watching you a message 'This person seeks the light and 80% of his body is pure love and sympathy'
Have to say the food looks great!
It was!
You guys are doing an awful lot of smiling!!! Love it!!! Makes me smile and I'm sitting at a desk with a busy phone wanting to throw it against a wall!!!!
welcome to Portugal :)
Bless my brother Jake.Life is for living and adventure. But plan it very well! Myself I would like to go live in the jungles of Indonesia,Brazil,Vietnam, America and Canada with the natives, Indians hunting,learning about the medicinal plants and survival strategies.
