    UNDERPREPARED for UNEXPECTED PORTUGAL! 🇵🇹 - First impressions of Van Life Portugal.
    After our long drive road tripping across Europe, this week we finally make it to Portugal. With this trip being completely unplanned we didn't really know what to expect, but as we wild camp our way towards southern Portugal and the Algarve, we start to get a sense of what van life in central Portugal is like.

    I'm sure I started following u about 2 years ago because u were in Portugal, Monsanto go to the top of the village and keep right ,it's a cobbled street up to the castle, left and it's rough and rural, just like I took, and u, when I visited. You cinematography of landscape as you travel is the best and so informative although short, I think that's what pulled me to u in the first place. I have not followed u for a long time. But u are gripping, and such a lovely couple, thankyou ❤

    It’s so funny that you should be talking about the Roman heating system today. My husband just found a bit of hyper cause tile in the field this very afternoon. The pillars of tiles you saw would have had a floor on top and the hot air ran through under the floor and up hollow box tile flues in the walls to create the heating in the rooms! So you would have under floor and in wall heating. Heat would come from a furnace at one end of the system!
