Our very first destination in Portugal was this holiday house of a Californian couple in Portugal. Abandoned around the 2000's, it still remains a question: where did they go? Assuming they passed away back in the States a decade ago, there dream house is left abandoned and untouched. Enjoy the first video of our abandoned Portugal series!

That was very cool that you hung up the clothes from under the bed, very respectful. Your videos are the best

[@elizabethsamways7986]

The glass is made like that. - The rug is a sheep's skin. - The 'foot bath' in the garage bathroom is for washing your bottom. - Thank you for hanging up her clothes, it shows respect.

Hope y’all enjoyed the first episode of our memorable Portugal series of last summer! This video was edited a while ago. As most of you may know our external hard drive crashed and a lot of the video files of our Portugal trip were lost. Luckily we could manage to get some of the footage back! Special thanks to all our currento loyal Patreon supporters: April Naderhirn, Carla Ringey, Donald Janzen, Elizabeth Stallings, Jennifer Parker, Jennifer Stanley, Karen Knight, John Allen, Nico Vogelaar, Peter Wellens, Sandy Ray, Sophia Brauer, Suni B, Theresa Brandt, Ute McInnes, Wendy McFayden.

Explomo hey! You plan to come back to portugal again? Theres actually an underground scary mall from the 80s. Its huge with halls like a maze and its closed since 99. I explored it back in 2007 and would love to have it on a video!!

[@Explomo]

7:34 I am laughing so hard. Guys, that is called a bidet and it is used to wash your bum when you poo. NOT to wash your feet. So funny

[@blanning2058]

Pronounced beh-dā. It is of French origin but a lot of rich people have them in their homes. I had to watch that part a few times. I couldn't believe they didn't know what it was! Surely they've encountered them on previous adventures.

[@butterflylady8875]

Saved by Grace OMG now I am laughing hard as well… I am blind so I pictured some sort of tub on the floor or even possibly a mat to wipe your feet on… This is great, thank you for your post💖💖💖🤣🤣

[@gloriahanes6490]

Honestly, I did see 60's and 70's decor so I suspect this couple did pass as you suggested both well into their late 80's or early 90's. 10:34 wall mirrors scream 1960...14:03 harvest gold fridge and stove screams 1970 another popular color for appliances in the 1970's was avocado green. 16:04 the linoleum tile is from the 1970's....18:40 this bed screams 1960's...18:52 mirror closet doors popular in the mid 1960 era ..27:16 a paisley blouse 1968....13:23 nesting plastic tables. Vintage clothes from this era can fetch quite a sum of money. Think about it these clothes and shoes are from 50-60 years ago,respectively. I would know I was a young girl in the 60's and a teenager in the 70's so it does bring back lots of memories.

[@ginnyroy241]

The yellow fridge and stove show 60s and 70s for sure

[@dawnkurtz9541]

You have never seen an American closet. Lol. Large, room sized walk- in closets with clothes and shoes. Shame someone does not take this home over.

Hi Maureno and Remon, Explomo, Wow! - What a wonderful start of your Portugal series. I was already looking forward to these videos. You are surprising me everytime, when I am watching a new video from you. - I loved the especially well made title intro. Your creativity is overwhelming. - Very well done - bravo! - You really made my day! - It was very interesting to follow you in mind, when you were showing that house of the American-Portuguese couple. - The whole interior has somehow a typical 70ies to 80ies vibe. - I also liked the fine background music with the first movement of the "Moonlight" - Sonata from L.v.Beethoven. - Also your small very humorous enactments (the "bar"-scene) made me laugh as well as the moment when you had to crawl under a broken door to a room. That was quite a challenge! Or the funny sombrero-dance scene! - LOL! -Hilarious! - So I am already looking very much forward to your next exploring adventures. Take care and safe explores, wherever you go! - Peace and lots of blessings. Kindest regards from Switzerland.

[@Explomo]

Hi Willy, your excitement about our videos is always a pleasure to read. Thank you so much! We had a wonderful time in Portugal. It was our favourite European country ever to explore abandoned places. Unfortunately as our external hard drive crashed, some of the videos could not be recovered. Luckily this was one of the recoverable videos and we were happy we could still share it with you. Take care and till the next one!!! 😁

I was going to stop watching these videos (yours) about 4 videos back, but before I could stop another one came on,then this one & I just couldn't bring myself to NOT watch it..lol I love your channel & think you boys are great, keep up the good job & thanks for sharing & being so respectful, to the houses you explore & to your viewers. Before we bought a home we rented a house, in the late 1970's, it had mirrors on one wall of a bedroom, one room also had wallpaper that was like a velvet type on one wall, it was red. I also back in the day, had the gold color kitchen appliances. I REALLY liked this video, seeing the different things.

[@carolannthornton1918]

You guys are so entertaining and adorable!! I appreciate your heartfelt handling of the little details of these people's lives. You show the value of the meaning of there lives above the monetary value of the the objects. It has been a lovely distraction during the quarantine on Covid19. Thanks 💖

[@saehtex1]

It appears from the interior design that the villa was either built or refurbished in the 70s. The glass backsplash and mirrored closet doors are a giveaway. The clothes were worn during that era also. Strange that there were no updated clothes. I wonder how long it had been since they used the house.

[@mspremalatha5721]

[@jayplays1434]

Such a beautiful exploration! Obviously the people were very wealthy to own a holiday home. They probably maintained entire wardrobes there to avoid traveling with all the luggage needed for an extended stay. As always, you guys show the site and its former residents the utmost respect. Thanks for sharing and stay safe.

I live in California and I thought the exact same thing. They would be astonished to see the walk-in closets of American women, it's called vanity. Europe and its cultures seem to celebrate family, food and wine.. it seems to me we are somewhat superficial, not all, but definitely some.

Great video guys, again I'm impressed by your respect for the homes and artifacts you find. I don't think they were a rich family because the doors and furniture were not of good quality. Looks like it was decorated back in the 70's. There was certainly a lot of clothing , but you can get expensive clothing at resale places for a fraction of the price and they look brand new. Also, I'm still laughing, not at yo, just at the idea. The thing in the bathroom you said to wash your feet in, is called a bidet water squirts up out of it to wash your bottom. I believe it is mostly used in France, although some homes in America do have them. Thank you again for a fabulous explore. Barb Delaware, USA
