“As long as we’re alive it’s never too late”. I love that Daphna!
❤️❤️❤️
Daphna, the more I watch your video's, the more I learn that my life has just begun at 53 in 2024, I am confident, I don't care about what people think of me, and I look good too, I removed all the toxic people from my life. 🌷🌷❤
makes me so happy to read❤️❤️❤️
Wow!!! Congratulations !
I am 53 too and I am actually on the way to throw all that toxic people out of my life ! (family of my husband)
Lets kick asses and allow ourselves to BE OURSELVES !
🥰me too ! age 56 🇨🇦....been a SAHM with 3 kids ...my twin boys are 16 now & very good in taking care of themselves & the house when im not around ....I'm soooo looking forward to my next life 🙏
@@sebathi1 The people I thought were my everything and the best in my life and I have always been there for them are the same people who are trying to break my spirit and my soul. I cut contact with my mum and sister's, I kept thinking maybe one day they will change . I learnt life the hard way . I used to be someone who would do anything for my family but they changed me and thanks to them because they opened my eyes. Let's kick toxic people out of our life's for good and I love my mum from far, I still help out if she needs anything but I have helpers whom I send money to and buy new furniture for her , hospital bills or doctors bills I pay . My new motto and policy is I love me so much anybody who doesn't like that should kick some rocks. 🌷🌷❤️👍
@@carlasamuels479 That's wonderful, let's keep strong as women and support one another emotionally. God is wonderful and stay blessed.🌷🌷❤️
"Life is a beautiful chaos (even when it looks perfect on social media), but out of this chaos, we create our beautiful life story".
There is something for everyone in this wonderful video. It is not just about how to relocate to Portugal (although it is covered in length), it is about this courageous woman's fighting spirit to overcome her struggles to forge a life she dreamt about and ultimately made it her reality. Her beautiful life story.
Thank you for the gorgeous scenic images, the thorough explanations filled with practical examples and, above all, the message of hope - for all of us - that we can begin anew.
thank YOU for being here and for your kind words ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Dear Daphna, I have to tell you that your channel is not only helpful for people in their 50s. I am 36, but I find it very inspiring. I think we are living in a time when we are generally redefining the concepts of age and what should be done at a certain age. Cheers!
sending you lots of love from Portugal Xxx
Your videos are positive and real. So much on social media is fake but you are genuine. Keep on being you!
Daphna, can you see WHAT gorgeous and powerfull women are meeting and supporting each other within YOUR community ??!! It really touches my heart deeply! Sooo magic! I really appreciate each one of you! 😊❤
Thanks for your support, and motivating words in the comments ❤️ ❤️ yes, this is magical and beyond my wildest dreams
It's good to be reminded that instead of wasting a lot of time dreaming or worse fretting about what if we better use our time and energy to make conscious choices and sacrafices to make our dreams into achievable realities..
True that ❤️
Well done Daphna, anything is possible if you are prepared to give it a go. It's surprising how you learn and you can make things happen. I came to live in Spain at 49 for one year, and have been here ever since, this is my 9th year. I love the slower pace of life and the culture the climate. It was honestly the best thing I ever did. I've learnt so much about what is important in life. And have found hobbies that I never had before. I heard someone say on a video a few years ago, when ever they have taken a risk it's usually paid off. So taking the risk is better than regretting not taking a chance. 🌸☀️🌸
I want to die with memories, not regrets😊❤️
I have loved this brazilian song in the beginning. It is the best part of the brazilian culture. Hugs from Rio, Brazil.
Just found your channel. As a fellow youTuber in her 50s love it.❤😊
Taveira is a beautiful place. It’s one of the locations I visited as a potential retirement option just before the last pandemic. Learning Portuguese and enjoying the healthy food culture was key.
Dear Daphna, your hapiness shows in your face, you look wonderful! Eyes don't lie. I am happy for you! We could meet when I move to Italy if you wish, it would be lovely to share our experience. 🦋🐝🌸
yeaaaaah love the idea❤️❤️❤️
Daphne, love your videos! Today, while watching I received a call from a friend who was hosting lunch today who needed to reschedule as someone close to her died last night at age 50. I am on a course very parallel to yours, yet different. You give me renewed encouragement, thanks! Jeff
thanks for writing this and for being here ❤️ ❤️
Daphna, yes, well said. "Life is a beautiful chaos." We'd never know the good if we didn't experience the bad.
❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Daphna for all the information you are so willing to impart. You are such an inspiration and i love hearing about your challenges in moving abroad. You should feel so very proud of yourself.
reading this makes me so happy, THANK YOU SOO MUCH!❤️❤️❤️
Those pesky tourists…. 😂😂 I can relate. I live in Florida. Excellent video Daphna. I love your transparency. It would be interesting to see “how to” videos with regard to moving to Europe. I’ve heard you can hire locals to help you navigate all the chores you describe in this video. So many options!
Such a great question. I'll come up with something about it ❤️❤️❤️
Portuguese subscriber here 😍I've been loving your channel ♥ You're such an inspiration!
(FYI the song at the beginning is brazilian 🙂)
hello hello ❤️❤️❤️
Decision and personality are the two words necessary to face a move from your country to a new place. I have traveled a lot throughout my life and I know that I will reach new places and fight every day with new things, places and people is sometimes complicated. The experiences of the 50s and 60s must help us to face all these types of challenges. At least in my case it is like that. Congratulations for your decision.❤
thanks for sharing your story and your thoughts with me and the whole community here, your words are so meaningful ❤️
Thank you for your practical tips. It is great to see how your life in Portugal is progressing.
thanks for writing this and for being here ❤️ ❤️
Love your videos. You are successful because you embrace change. Thank you for the inspiration ❤
thanks for writing this and for being here ❤️ ❤️
Thank you for your videos Daphna, you're really lovely. I know exactly what it's like to move countries. I've lived and worked in the UK, the Middle East, South Africa, France and the USA. It's hard going to a new country. It takes time to get settled and it is not easy, so I truly understand what you are saying. Anyway, stay lovely, strong and keep your videos coming! Thank you, Daphna.
thank you so much for being here and for your support❤️ ❤️
Love your positive videos, Daphne. God bless you.❤
❤️❤️❤️
Its never too late! I love that. 🙌
Beautiful so peaceful and scenic.
❤️❤️❤️
I am fortunate that my husband and son support my decision to move to Portugal. we are a few short years away and I am hoping to come for a visit next year, I am planning to do exactly what you suggested, come in winter and rent an apartment. I am going to check out Porto (we've been to Lisbon, we love it but it is out of our price range). In the meantime I am getting ready for my move, decluttering, simplifying, budgeting, saving. learning Portuguese. I can't wait to travel in Portugal and Europe, it will be a dream come true. חיבוקים
sending you lots of love from Portugal Xxx
Love your videos and your honesty! I’m in the first year of considering moving to Italy ❤
thanks for writing this and for being here ❤️
I love the balanced transparency of your videos. They are a wonderful resource for people. I was in Tavira for a short time this winter. The ferry to the amazing beach and the lovely town itself would make it a top 3 place to stay/visit in the Algarve for me so far. I would agree with you about the car. There are many lovely places in the Algarve but if I were to live there any of them would feel a little constraining. With a car, all of the Algarve opens to you and trips up to Lisbon or to Seville in western Spain are easy. Best of luck to you on your journey.
Thank you for sharing and for being here ❤️
Awesome ❤ It’s only impossible until you do it x stay safe thank you for your advice
Thanks for all your support, and motivating words in the comments ❤️ ❤️
Fantastic tips Dafna!! I'm greek and moving back to greece after 30 years in northamerica. Can't even begin to describe my worries having to deal with the bureaucracies after so many years ... love all your videos, they are so encouraging and inspiring ❤️
oh I'm so happy you got inspired ❤️❤️❤️
Hello Daphna. Portugal is my "hidden" dream.. I am from a South American country where the problem when filming is not the people crossing in front of you, but that the camara wouldn't last a second and somebody would steal it. The information in this video is invaluable, gets me in touch with the more down to earth things to think about. I am loving every video; thank you. I still don't see the change I dream of so close.. But who knows.. Your videos are becoming an important part in this process!
thank YOU for being here and for your kind words ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
LOVE THE SHOW! i go to lisbon a lot! i live in london and hastings on the sea in uk-
Hi Daphna,
I would say l have joined your chanel from the very start of your journey, relocating to portugal.
I say that because it was inspirational to me to watch and listen to you and yes it helped me and motivated me.
I am moving to my beloved Spain, Costa del sol, this August.
Yes life is for living and yes follow your dreams you are right saying that.
Thank you for your videos and l am sure it might help others as it did help me.
oh I'm so happy you got inspired ❤️❤️❤️
I love your honesty. I have never seen that before! I learn much from you
reading this makes me so happy, THANK YOU SOO MUCH!❤️❤️❤️
@@Daphna. Dear Daphna, I hardly wait your next video. I follow you since weeks and I will try to do as you in my life. Still some ddifficult destiny for me to go, but in future I ll what you do. greeting from Croatia

Hey 👋 Daphna,, I am not a walking zombie. I know the both sides of all stories. You are such a beautiful wonderful brave woman. I thought of you today because I just received my package of motorcycle parts from Vila Nova DE FamaliCaO, can’t wait to put this together. Stay young, stay beautiful and healthy.
Bless you.
Never thought I’d be associated with motorcycle parts😂 but thank you for that❤️ ❤️
Beautiful town, Beautiful woman! Great video 😊
❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful 🎉
Thank you 🌻🙂
Thank you for sharing your moving experience to new country leaving back everything.
I enjoy your videos a lot because I can relate to them.
I don’t know if I missed your video related with all your monthly experience to live in Portugal, I would like to have an idea how much it cost?
Thanks for all you do it’s appreciated 🙏
Such a great question. more content coming, and I'm sooo excited to see what you think ❤️
Hello there, I’m a new subscriber and I have really been enjoying your videos. I really appreciate your calm voice and positive encouraging attitude. I was wondering if you have any book recommendations that have helped you maintain a positive attitude of empowerment. Thank you for sharing your personal journey with us. Muchas bendiciones para ti.
thank YOU for being here and for your kind words. I'll come up with something about it ❤️❤️❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Daphna,Try to learn Portuguese that will empower you and will open other Portugal to you. I know is not a easy language but you are a determined lady and I'm sure you will make it fine😊
Absolutely!
I've been to Tavira , very nice.
Have you been to Lagos? Love your vlogs. you're living the Dream 😊
Lagos is lovely too, like so many other places in Portugal ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Daphna for sharing. Had you considered other countries before choosing Portugal? If so, could you please talk about it, in another video.
oh love the idea and I'll come up with something about it ❤️❤️❤️
@@Daphna. Great. Thanks,
@@Daphna. Yes! Thanks. How did Portugal win out?
I appreciate your wonderful attitude and practical tips for moving abroad. Do you know Portuguese?
Thanks.
thank YOU for being here ❤️
You are brave 😊
sending you lots of love from Portugal Xxx
Oh sorry forgot to ask how much is a small apartment for one ?
Loved the video Daphna - interesting and informative. You’ve probably covered this topic before but what about language? Do you speak Portuguese? Spanish? Are you learning Portuguese, or is English enough?
Work in progress 😂❤️
Haha yeah 👍🏽 totally get it :)
Thank you for the video! Can you tell us what is the Bette town to live in Portugal ( little town) thank you very much!❤️❤️❤️
Such a great question. more content coming, and I'm sooo excited to see what you think ❤️
❤
Thanks מלכה
thanks for these nice words❤️
Loving your youtube videos, you're very inspirational. Where did you move from?
oh I'm so happy you got inspired ❤️❤️❤️
lol what’s up with the pink cup? Love your videos.
Purple please! 😊
I like your channel 😊, Felix from Zürich-Switzerland 🇨🇭
hello hello ❤️❤️❤️
@@Daphna. by the way you look much younger 😉I thought when I read the topic ..in your 50' s you are making a video about your mother 😀Maybe you can share your secret in one of your next Videos,thanks
Have you watched my video about how to look good in your 50s?
Good vid Daphna I held out the whole 13 minutes wow I did it. Lol😅lol. Hey I watched your banking video but still don't get how it happened??
your comment is so motivating, thanks for that ❤️
Thank you for the inspiration! 🙏 Wondering about the language barrier. Do you speak Portuguese? Are you taking lessons?
I took a six months course and I can understand the basics but its work in progress💕
Is it easy to access organic food and alternative health care like acupuncture, etc. in Portugal?
I’m pleasantly surprised by the variety of gluten free and organic options at every supermarket
What’s the weather like where you are in the winter because here in the UK don’t want to face another one if I can = old now but my soul is young but unfortunately my body fills the cold while my soul is always dancing.
❤️❤️❤️
I live in Algarve, so choose Algarve if you want warmer and not so much rain as it is in the north of Portugal.
But of course summer could be rather hot, but close to the sea it is more fresh.
Anyway.. I guess Portugal has better weather then UK the year around. So move if you can, you lenghten your life by skipping the winters.
@@christerwogel138 I definitely don’t skip in winter too cold = sorry just the British humour , may I ask roughly what temperature is it in winter there ? Also you mentioned that apartments are cheaper in the off season = when is the off season ? Obviously I’m hoping it’s the winter , one more question if I may roughly how much would a small apartment cost per month in the off season it’s just for me alone .
Where in portugal is that? I lived in Lisbon but dont recognise that area, looks maybe more north?
She’s in the southern region of the country. She mentioned Tavira and has some shots in other areas.
Daphna, happened upon your channel and now am a follower. Cant tell by your ascent where you are from (guessing German)? I see you are now in Portugal, but were did you spend most of your adult life.
Thank you for being here ❤️
HELLO. I RECOMMEND IF YOU VISIT PORTO, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BOOKSTORE IN THE WORLD! THE CAFE HISTORIC (COFFEE DRINK COSTS 5 EUROS!) THE SAO BENTO TRAIN STATION, WHERE YOU CAN SEE THE FAMOUS TILES! SUCH AS THE RIBEIRA LIVING ROOM AND THE FAMOUS CENTURY-OLD BRIDGES. HUGS
oh love the ideas, thanks so so so much❤️
It's been a couple of months, hey? We all need a little space.
Oh, Daphna, you had me until ice cream. Used to be 220 and a runner for the better half of my life. Memories. Today, 165 lbs, however we no longer run anymore. Now, cycling def works, and we do have our own share of the Atlantic Ocean... the left side. But seriously I would immediately balloon up to 250 just thinking about moving to Portugal. Ice cream oh yah, but only in my dreams.
You are so bad. 1/2 of your videos show you sitting and walking with a cone in your hand. How on earth do you stay so skinny? Come to Portugal, Maine, dear. Ok, so we spell it a bit differently here... Portland, lol. I do enjoy your videos... and sometimes bad can be very good, say what?
What you do every day matters more than what you do from time to time😊
@@Daphna. My story was Tom Brady-esk, I came home early from Boston and decided to stop at the local library. I was a construction consultant on the Big Dig and helped new contractors get prequalified to bid on state contracts for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. I loved every minute of every day of it.
My partner of 16 yrs was a police captain, and when she came into our local library I assumed she'd seen my car out in the lot. The next door neighbor was there. I didn't give it a second thought until light dawned on Marblehead. I guess they'd been seeing ea other for over a year. It hurt like hell. I thought we'd had an outstanding relationship. I moved out a week later. Never said a word, never spoke about it and never looked back, but it hurt for a long time. Still I gave it one more try.
I developed a great relationship with a VP from an internat'l accounting firm, a beautiful, personable tall woman whom I met at her housewarming party. I left the barbeque two yrs later, true story, but stroked out, and it left me paralyzed from head to toe. I let her go, not ever expecting to recover, however miraculously regained 85% of my mobility a few months later, but it was really hard. It was then I knew that I was forevermore done with relationships. That was twenty years ago!!! I'll be eighty on July 4th. C'est la vie, Daphna. Thank you for sharing yours.
I’ve been loving every one of your videos. In this one, the big purple cup waving around, dominating the screen is pretty distracting 🤪
tnx for your feedback and for your support ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Daphna, Im your new subscriber..curious to know about your family members eg husband, kids...(if you are okay to share :)
hello hello ❤️❤️❤️
A música é cantada por uma brasileira
