Obrigada por esse lindo vídeo com essas lindas paisagens Pico é muito lindo ❤️👏👍🇵🇹

"i'm in the mood for something cozy, light..." *picks up RF Kuang* 🫠

I actually picked up The Silk Road on your recommendation. It's been a slog, but not because it's not enjoyable (it is!). It's just that I keep getting distracted by other books. I want to finish it before years' end. Also have How to Do the Work and Entangled Life on my TBR list.

i dont want to curse it, but should we buddy read entangled life?! also, burning god! i neeed to read this too. you know all about my up and down reading slumps of this year, what a weird reading year its been for us both! <3

Welcome back darling ❤

Sounds like Daffy Duck drowning lol

Ich finde es immer wieder faszinierend, da wandern Menschen aus (nicht auf dich bezogen) und können kein Englisch und lernen auch nicht die Landessprache. Ich verstehe es nicht.

Loved your 5 part series and learning more about your challenges, perseverance, and thriving in Pico. 🌻

Thank you for being you --- live and don't worry about others.

Is this in Baden Wurtemmburg?

As long as you find peace ✌️ its worth it.

Hello Tasmin, Good video and honest questions. I get the feeling that you subconsciously still doubt whether you want to live in Pico? Or am I totally wrong? You show everyone on KZbin how much you love Pico. But if you are so sure of yourself, maybe you don't have to keep saying and showing it. I like your videos and you've given me food for thought too. Do I want to move to Sao Miguel or not in the future, when I'm done working in the Netherlands? In any case, Pico is too small and too wet for me, I guess. You mainly tell what is not nice about living on Pico. But can you also name the things you love about Pico? I am very curious. Thanks in advance.

This seems like a contracted perception of reality. Thank you for your efforts x

Just found your channel - 5:42 is a powerful moment in your narration of your feelings; hope you are still enjoying life "at home" cheers from Canada.

Love this, so proud of you❣️

If I hear the globalist, cliché' , regurgitated word "sustainability" one more time I swear to God I will write an unbearably boring book!!

Lizards have approved this message! 😆

There's quite a well known video about the Azores that we watched, it mentioned a cat tax on the Azores. Have you found this to be true? Thanks love your channel!

É mesmo assim com este calor só de baixo de água para ficar fresco lindo vídeo 👏👏🌹👍

Endlich Abkühlung? ❤😊

i am so excited about our livestream this week! I love seeing you talk with so much passion about writing. I am so happy we are both sliding out of our reading slumps haha. Also, questions for you. I am curious how you are acquiring different plants for the garden and what access is like on Pico. Are you able to buy fruit trees, how is access to seeds or seedlings, are you buying plants, getting cuttings from friends, seed saving etc. Is there a garden store on Pico?

I would like to ask if you have experience with growing fruit. What works well in the Azores? Pineapples in a greenhouse, that's well known. I grow avocados in Spain, and I think the Azores have an ideal climate for avocados. Wind is a bit of a problem but avocados grow quickly and soon mend after a storm. Also maracuyá or guava should do well. I have been to the Azores and have not seen this fruit. I have seen papaya with green fruit but the summer is too short like in Spain and the fruit don't have time to ripen I think. You have lived there a long time, do you have any experience?

Thanks 😂😊

This Is What The Ocean Brings To People ! Joy And Peace .

Gostei muito de ver esse lindo vídeo com essas lindas paisagens e gostei muito desse lindo gatinho😻😻 muito obrigada 🍅🍅🌶️🌶️🫑🫑🌹🌹❤️👍

I am happy for you! Your dream came true.

Ok ok get going

Did you adopt your kitties on Pico?

Don't wait for con-tractors to show up. They don't like to work or to respect your time schedule. They want to be paid more and more and to rip you off. Just DIY and be happy. Con-tractors are just a con. They do sometimes crawl on their knees and BEG for work, but...

That's a guiltakhitteh.

Such a cute kitty!!! 😻

we clearly didn't know the half of it if we didn't know about the pizza hut 😂 congrats on all the progress and the slow, connected life you're building on the island:)

Great episode! I loved the footage from the garden. Did you raise the aubergine from seed? Did you ever get to repair the stone retaining wall that came down during the storm a year or so ago?

Hi Tasmin, I am not an expert but looks like your passion fruit tree has the woodiness virus or anthracnose or Fungal Spot. This fungus reduces the production and in the market no one buys them because they are "ugly". After you harvest all the passion fruit, the best you can do is remove the complete tree, pickup any fallen leaves and fruit to help stop the disease spreading. Spread ashes from barbecue or bonfires over the passion fruit soil to disinfect the area and also to provide minerals to the soil and then in the proper season plant a new passion fruit tree. Boa sorte para a tua renovação!

okra!!! <3 ok i love the story of the pizza hut haha i did not know that. love feeling that connection that you have to your home, you can really feel it when you are talking about it =D so happy for you tasmin <3

Herrlich so viel anpflanzen und anschließend ernten zu können. Ich möchte auf meinem Balkon auch ein bisschen mehr anpflanzen, kann mich nur noch nicht entscheiden was. Habe bisher Johannis- und Erdbeeren sowie Thymian, Lavendel und Oregano.

Gostei muito desse lindo vídeo com essas lindas alfaces pimenta morangos figueira já com figos 🍅🍅🍓🍓🌶️🌶️🧅🧅🐈🐈🐈‍⬛❤️🌹👍

Good Day, my great grand father was born in Azores on Pico Island. The surname is Rosa. I am trying to find any living relatives that may still be there. If you could help me it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

My family is from Sao Miguel and I love seeing the islands and hearing all your insights. Congrats on the books!

Adorooo!😍 Gotta see if on my next visit someday they do this again 😘

I am so excited and proud of you for your books in a bookshop!! Ahh! So incredible =D Also, the facts about the ocean temps and cloud cover... wow that's wild. Things are so connected in so many ways that we don't understand. And those magazines! I will need to order one or two for myself, they look like amazing resources.

I'm here in Cais do Pico and I think I'm going to Lajes and buy me a travel guide

Gostei muito de ver vídeo com os lindos gatinhos 🐈🐈‍⬛ enquanto ao livros eu não percebo náda 📚📚📓📒📗❤️👏👍

Lovely vlog! I have The Anatomy of Waves in my poetry collection and I adore it. I need to pick up The Eloquence of Hurricanes !

ok this beet recipe, once i have an oven again i will need to try it! =D
