A Year In Our Life In A Vlog To Wish You A Wonderful 2025.

[@johnjay_uk8360]

You honestly do enough. You owe us nothing. It's just a pleasure when you post. Please, please, please just keep being you❤

[@destino2portugal]

@johnjay_uk8360 being me is all i can be, sometimes I wish I couldn't be me but I'm stuck in this meat skeleton 🤣 I will do more next year, for Sarah, she definitely deserves more 💖

[@ruthconstantino6861]

Thank you, Nick and Sarah, for such a lovely greeting. Wishing you much happiness and many many blessings in the new year❣ Still with you after all these KZbin years and sticking right here to one day witness you enjoying the fruit of your citrus orchard as well as walnut goodery from your old faithful tree. Lovely to see your beloveds around you thriving -- your grandsons, Foffy and lola, and your army of street kitties. Bless you for loving on all of them so hard 💖. You work, your help to your viewers, your inspiration are so very much appreciated. 🤗🥰

[@terry9108]

Thanks Nick and Sarah for a fantastic Christmas video. I wish you both Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year. I can't remember ever seeing such an incredible light show. I look forward to your 2025 vlogs, produced at your pace. ❤

[@destino2portugal]

@terry9108 thank you Terry, a very merry Christmas and prosperous New year and sincerely, thank you. ❤️

[@destino2portugal]

@ruthconstantino6861 Ruthy, you've been with us from day one, we class you as a dear friend, how wonderful is the Internet *sometimes. Without folks like you we wouldn't have made a little success here so from us all, we thank you and love you ❤️

[@fencer39]

I love your videos. they are an escape for a dreamer like me thats always gonna, but probably never will "! keep your chin up mate, you might have some doubts but believe it or not you have a great effect on folks ! Thanks !!

[@travelinaway2707]

💯💯 agree. They're both lovely people.

[@destino2portugal]

@fencer39 I can't thank you enough for your kind words. Sometimes when all the lows, esteem, worth, imposter syndrome and the expected deep depression hits it feels like an insurmountable hole. Lucky to have friends who pull you up and out. A fruitful and wondrous new year to you and yours.

[@destino2portugal]

@travelinaway2707 thank you, I have a feeling I know you but don't, have we met? Or are you the wonderful chap who helped us with our holiday 🤔

[@travelinaway2707]

​@destino2portugal no. I'm in Canada. I visit Portugal sometimes and dream of buying a property there. I've also watched your home reno videos. The first time I'd ever heard of boundary disputes was from one of your videos, I had no idea that **some** real estate agents weren't bound by law to be totally honest. It opened my eyes to the reality. Anyway, I just wish you all the best.

[@gracegomes2632]

May your 2025 be all that you desire! Much health, peace and prosperity!

[@destino2portugal]

@gracegomes2632 we are starting with a balcony! So the dogs can spend their days shouting at squirrels and anything else that moves 🤣 Just waiting for a price for the concrete work as that's a Portuguese speciality 😁 The best of new years to you too 💛

[@ourportuguesehomestead]

Love the crochet nest! Amazing to have the grandkids with you for a month ❤. Hope you have a better 2025!

[@destino2portugal]

@ourportuguesehomestead I thought it was a bonkers idea, but it worked! Im wondering if I should.buy a candy floss machine to mimic processionary caterpillar nests next 🤣

[@destino2portugal]

@ourportuguesehomestead just realised who this is, im planning to come visit you Lea and Maarten, I've realised how important dear friends are and you are the dearest, sorry for my distance and much love to you and your lovely family ❤️❤️❤️

[@isabellevince5174]

How nice to see you again! What a lovely surprise! To all those who've had a hard time in 2024 - we have to keep going ... And wishing us all happiness in 2025!

[@destino2portugal]

@@isabellevince5174 we do have to keep going! Fight the evil with love and kindness and not let the bastards grind you down! Wishing you a healthy and prosperous New.year ❤️❤️❤️

[@judithtaylormayo]

YOU HAVE BEEN MISSED, WELCOME BACK !!! Yes there are many channels , but yours is one of my favourites!! The Coimbra light show is the most beautiful one I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing.

[@destino2portugal]

@judithtaylormayo the light show brought a tear to my glass eye and made me feel christmasy for the first time since a young boy. If my channel brings joy to others then maybe it's something I need to do more, there needs to be more joy in the world so if I can spread just a little it's work worthy of doing. Happy new year 🎉

[@adam_west_photo]

Merry Christmas and all the best for 2025. It’s great to see you both again. You’ve had a lot to deal with this last year and you’ve made it through. You also helped many realise their dreams along the way. I look forward to following your reno journey. Try and ignore view counts, just enjoy sharing your beautiful journey with friends. Love and strength to all of you. Adam.

[@destino2portugal]

@adam_west_photo I completely agree! We gave up on views and subs a while back, it's all ego based bullshit that is unhealthy for me to obsess about. Thank you Adam, we need to make the changes for both our well beings and as they say, sometimes it's darkest just before the dawn. Happiest of new years 💓

[@igneousidol]

Thank you for taking the time to do the house sales videos, I understand how hard it is to make videos...wishing you and your family a great 2025, take care

[@heidifuller9964]

I don't think you need to apologise for not creating vlogs - your channel, your choice but thanks for being so open & honest. Looking forward to seeing what you do in 2025! That light show was utterly mesmerising. WOW! 🎆

[@destino2portugal]

@heidifuller9964 oh Heidi, it made me cry with joy! And we stumbled upon by accident so had to share with the world. Here's to a super, smashing marvellous new year to you, Hanif and us all, so much love to you ❤️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@heidifuller9964]

@destino2portugal likewise! X

[@evelyngorfram9306]

How wonderful to hear from you! I'm sorry it's been such a rough year for you- I definitely understand about struggles with mental health, & how they making working, creating, and connecting with others so very hard. I really enjoyed this update, & I will look forward to however many or few vlogs & real estate tours you find yourselves up to in 2025. ☺

[@junco477]

Thanks for the check in. Hope 2025 is kinder to you. (And that crochet hornet nest is brilliant. well done)

[@WhiteRvssian2023]

I wish you a much happier 2025 and I hope your mental health will improve. These things tend to get better so stay strong!

[@anaramos9660]

I wish you and Lady Sarah, from the bottom of my heart, all the best and that 2025 gives all you want and need. Happy New year

[@destino2portugal]

@anaramos9660 she is Lady Sarah, princess Sarah, angel Sarah, my absolute everything 💖 She has held me from the edge and has loved me when I couldn't love myself. Sometimes I forget how lucky I am. A blessed and happy new year to you too 💖💖💖

[@maggieferreira4818]

Dear Nick, you have done exactly what you set out to do. My husband and I have bought a house in Portugal and are moving in January. We watched all your house videos for the past few years and although we did not buy the houses you have shown, we were introduced to your net of very reliable agents and have used one to purchase our house. Thank you for changing our lives. We are moving to a safe country now. When we are there please come and visit and hang out with us. You have changed our lives :) Maggie and Jac

[@destino2portugal]

@maggieferreira4818 I'm so very happy to read this! You escaped!! I am glad you found your home and would love to hear your story over a nice bifana or just a coffee. Maggie and Jac, I'm dreadful with names, maybe find us on Facebook and we can start our new friendship there ❤️

[@Takomanny]

Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

[@lesleysmith8300]

Merry Christmas guys. My thoughts are with you and of course your health etc comes first. I pray that 2025 is a better year for you both. I have my own grief at the moment, so l have a few things to get through. Take care lovelies. I'm glad you are using trusted estate agents. I'll know who to come to when I'm ready to consider Portugal. ❤❤🙂.xx

[@travelinaway2707]

❤❤❤

[@tammyinpei]

You guys do what you need to do, I am happy that you are both doing well and I hope to see more of your smiling faces. Have a wonderful New year.

[@travelinaway2707]

Dearest Nick and Sarah, To say that I was filled with emotion from seeing your video would be an understatement. There are so many things that I want to gush about but I'll keep it simple; from the bottom of my heart, I wish you the very best of love, joy, peace, prosperity. I wish you every windfall, every leg up, every bit of luck that's available to us humans. May 2025 be the year that you recieve all of the abundance that the universe has to offer. Thank you for touching base. See you again soon! ❤❤❤

@bryansarty3821 love to you both Bryan and Nora! United in the championship next year by the looks of it, even more to celebrate 🤣

[@bryansarty3821]

@@destino2portugal 🤣 I think that could be RATcliffe’s plan. But, Amorin will foil him and bring United up to a level of respectability.

How lovely to see you both again! Sorry it didn't work out with Tilly but it sounds like she truly landed on her feet! I am so sorry to hear how much you've struggled with your mental health, I pray that 2025 will be kinder to you.

Nick & Sarah you are two of the loveliest people who put your entire hearts into everything you do. My family & I appreciate you reaching out into the unknown to help those of us who need a safer place to live. It has not gone unnoticed and I hope to thank you in person one day once we're there. You deserve peace, rest and most of all joy in your lives! Big hugs and lots of love from Ohio, USA

Nick thanx for being honest and letting people know life no matter where we are is full of challenges. We all appreciate your channel and the properties you. Share. We all know how challenging life is, work, paying for our lives and we don't expect you to do any more than you can. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year. Don't feel guilty about the dog. You are doing all you can. Sarah and you are doing great. One day at a time. Glad you have your peeps. Hang in and keep going. Glad to know in 2025 you will work on your home. LOL. Do an update on your house when you are finished. Hang with the grands and family etc. All will be ok. Will look for any updates. Enjoy each moment. Cheers.

As others have said, Your insight to the Possibilities of Living & Purchasing a Property (mostly to be renovated, so to be inclusive of minimal funds) has been truly Valued for Authenticity. And your liaising Property Agents demonstrate that too. We are all Unique and 'Thought Attention without Judgement' towards 'Whatever Is' builds your Healing, Health & Wellbeing. Surrounded by the Beautiful Nature & the People of Portugal is a good place to be...Happy 2025! Thankyou 💚

[@victorgoncalves2442]

Olá amigo Nick , Nice to see you. I always enjoyed to watch your videos about you guys and the restoration, shame that you stop doing it, but I understand . Your Portuguese is good , well done . I feel sorry for you and your family having to see that abomination with a lizard or dragon , or something like that !!!!😂😂😂 Just joking I'm a Benfica supporter) 😂😂 . Wishing you Sarah and your family a Happy New Year, Hope to see you more often, take care guys.

[@lizpinto7079]

We totally understand you need to do what you must , and we do like the house tours but when you feel more up for it at least once a month possibly we would love to see you and your every day life it can be 20min. long, you have a great funny personality that we love , Sarah is always a sweet heart and when Sarah is away we can help you stay busy making a video and so not so isolated 😊 we have been with you since you first started and we wish you both a wonderful Christmas holiday and a very prosperous, healthy and joyous new year 2025 is going to be your best year yet I just know it best wishes from us 🇨🇦🇵🇹

[@traveller9292]

Grub, I asked you about your channel being sold as a reno channel when I originally joined but it was now a house sales page and you basically told me where I could go so I unsubscribed!! I came back and watched this one but too late for excuses and apologies

[@destino2portugal]

All i can do is offer my sincerest apologies. Sometimes we say things we don't mean and in frustration and anger. I'm sad to see you go but completely understand and wish you all the very best for the new year❤️
