    Hi, I live in São Miguel and i can tell you that there's defenitly some hiding gems that you missed because they are not well known to the tourists. Idk if you went to Porto Formoso perish but they have a beautifull water fall and beach.
    In Água d'alto perish they have a spot called Trinta Reis where you catch a trail to 2 beautifull waterfalls. If you want i can show ya guys via social network some pictures of it. Thanks for the video of my beautifull island!

    Just to share. I currently live in Boston.My moms side is from Sao Miguel. My grandfather just passed away on monday. And watching this just brought tears to my eyes. The memories of being there and seeing this video just reminded me of so much. I literally ate at Tonys lol. Honestly thank you for sharing. Great video quality. Really this video just gave me great memories.

    • @IntAffair

      My great grandfather and great grandmother came from the Azores. I have visited three times in the last 3 years. I absolutely love this magical place. I come all the way from California. I wish I lived on the east coast as you do, I would be able to visit more often, since it would be cheaper and much faster and easier traveling there. Go as much as you can, I have a feeling it’s going to get more crowded and more expensive the more its discovered.

    Thanks for the great travel tips! We used your vids to plan a week in Sao Miguel a few weeks ago. Somehow we forgot about checking the tides before going to Ponta da Ferraria...went at high tide lol. My husband went in anyway, but it was cold and the waves were rocking. Oh well, excuse to go back to the Azores! PS-we searched UA-cam for travel to the Azores and your vids were by far the best!

    GREAT VIDEOS. For some reason I feel like the prices went up a little bit for us in April. Furnas is 2 Euro. Dona Beija is still 4. The other 2 paying thermal pools are 8 euro due to their parks. Terra Nostra is worth it. The other one is meh. I'm jealous we were not able to go in the water at the ocean one, but it was still a beautiful site to see.

    • @IntAffair
      @IntAffair  6 років тому

      Bryan Madrigal Thanks Byran! Yea...price hikes can be a drag but let's hope they're for good reasons like maintenance or higher wages...none the less, the entry isn't that bad for such beautiful places, right?

    We just got back from Sao Miguel 6/3/2018, 9 days there, you need nerves of steel to drive to the ocean hot pool, 50 degrees or more 8ft wide rap, we turned around, if you are fair and have any skin or scalp condition, like sunburn do not, I repeat do not put your head in the hot waterfall or outlet, because you will regret it.

The government, the politics, young people cant even afford an appartment, things are so expensive for someone making 500 € month, its like we never left the dictature. Yes its hard and we miss "home" but life there is different, because the same people who are nice can be nosy too...

    Hi! I’m going there this month and I was wondering if you had any problem flying your drone in San Miguel. By the way, nice shot of the road at the begining. Were you using active track?
    Thank you and I hope to see more videos of you!

    • @IntAffair
      @IntAffair  6 років тому

      David García Arévalo Thank you David 🙌🏼
      Drone laws are constantly changing - we’re not officials and probably not the best to give legal advice on drone piloting. I can tell you that we've never have had any issues transporting our drone throughout Europe.
      Just try to follow guidelines as much as possible and you should be fine.
      90% of our drone shots are all freestyled manually. I only use POI every now and then but usually do those by hand too 😃
      Hope this helps and safe travels ✌🏼
