Nick, thank you for your high quality videos about the Algarve.

[@AlgarveAddicts]

You're welcome Catherine.

[@Nubianette]

Useful video! I’d thought about going back to Faro, in February, to see what the winter would be like. I only had 1/2 day-night and a ride to the airport in June. Then my friend who lives in Portimão told me, I should go to Loulé for Carnival. I then decided not to do next February. Now, you’re causing me to want to go for next February. Hehe!

[@AlgarveAddicts]

February.... brrrr. Cold and rainy, those poor naked girls on the carnival procession.

[@Nubianette]

@@AlgarveAddicts let’s see which location is more rainy and cold, California or mid-southern Portugal. 😁

[@BocaJoeKay]

Wow Nick, always loved your posts/vlogs of the Algarve. This new visit to Loule is some of your best work. The energy, the pace, the facets of the the overall exploration of Loule is terrific. I'm a fan for life.

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Joe, what a wonderful thing to say. 🙏🏼 Thank you, it's really appreciated.

[@TJ-fy4ue]

Excellent video! A nice historical perspective also. Wife & I spent a couple of days in Loule, spring of last year. It was probably our favorite town in the Algarve. We loved the market and strolling the town. We had a pleasant stay at the Loule Jardim Hotel. We will definitely be back. Thanks.

[@AlgarveAddicts]

I agree, it's a lovely place to live.

[@HermannderCherusker1970]

[@From_NL_to_PT]

Nice video Nick! We love Loulé as you know ;-)

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Thanks Vief! Great to hear from you.

[@blancamartini]

Enjoyed the video on Loulé! The history you share about the towns is always so informative. I love it! We visited Loulé last year and really enjoyed it (it wasn't raining - lol.) We agree about the good food and plenty to do. Thanks for bringing it back to our attention!

[@AlgarveAddicts]

You're welcome Blanca. Yep the history takes a while but I enjoy the learning process as well.

[@JenShea]

Terrific video Nick!

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Thanks Jen! 👍🏼

[@louisomara7145]

Hi nick , great video as usual. Was always curious about this town. Thank you will put Loule on the list for next year cheers pal😊

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Thanks for the kind words 👍🏼

[@stankent]

Loved the video as brings back memories from past! Been in Loulé few times while staying in Albufeira. Great to see that this place has not changed much, still looks as good, if not better with few new cafes and always lovely local people! :)

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Glad you enjoyed it Stan! Stay well.

[@doloresduarte4059]

Fantastic info vidio Nick. Regards

[@AlgarveAddicts]

You're welcome Dolores!

[@roberto1002om]

Nice video Nick. I loved Loulé during last Med Festival. A city to consider in my search of places to live.

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Absolutely, Med Fest is a blast!

[@manuelgouveia2710]

Hi Nick. Such an interesting video of Loulé and some history of the area and Algarve. Looking forward to seeing to next videos on other towns in the Algarve. Obrigado! 🇿🇦🇵🇹

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Hi Manuel, I have a map of all my other videos about the Algarve towns here www.algarveaddicts.com/videos

[@susanhighfield3370]

Such an interesting video and an interesting looking town, the only time I've been to Loule was recently to the private hospital which I can recommend to anyone, wonderful service by extremely nice people.

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Thanks for sharing Susan 👍🏼 it's good to hear from you again.

[@Sergevdb28]

Great video as always Nick! We’re moving there in December.

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Cool! Let's organize a meetup. Your organize, I'll try and come ☺️

[@MichelleSmith-ze3rf]

I enjoy your videos. Good info for our future plans. Would love a video on golf resorts in Portugal from affordable to expensive price ranges.

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Hi Michelle, generally they're all expensive... Sorry.

[@angelassssssssssssssssssss1673]

Great video! Can you make a video showing the differences between living in Madeira and Algarve? Thks!😊

[@ogator8642]

I remember going to Loule years ago and parking my rented car far from the market and I was absolutely paranoid that I would forget where the car was parked and then who would I ask about where my rented car was parked? I didn't forget where it was parked but your comments about parking brought it all back to me.

[@zeb747]

Outstanding episode Nick. The quality of the production is cinematic and artistic. Huge fan, Zack

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Thanks Zack 👍🏼

[@GJKemp]

I would like to second this. The production value of this video was just 🔥 Cannot wait to see the rest of the castles!

[@AlgarveAddicts]

@GJKemp thanks so much GJ. I do have one other castle video shot but it won't be for tomorrow. Maybe next week or for a rainy day.

[@jrhamp]

Well done Nick..Indeed, wish I were back in Europe...lived in Comillas, Cantabria, Spain for a few years while working contract for the United Nations after 20 years with US military. I know the Algarve well and would be my first choice to relocate..now in Florida. Live well and all the best/Randall, Melbourne, Florida

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Thanks Randall, all the best.

[@stuart2845]

Hi it was great to see you at Bean 17 this morning. Elaine and i are waiting for our flight back to Scotland. If you are struggling with accomodation in Edin let us know and we will try and help you out. I live in Bridge Of Allan which is between Edin and Glasgow which is a great location with a train station nearby. Douglas

[@AlgarveAddicts]

It was great to bump into you, Stuart! I hope you had a great flight back north. Thanks for the kind offer.

[@stermindelves4251]

A fantastic town to visit low season. Laid back, historic and pretty. Best restaurant is The Bocage by a country mile. Best hotel Hotel Jardim. Would highly recommend.

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Thanks for sharing! Isn't Hotel Jardim the ONLY hotel 😄

[@zeb747]

Nick, can you possibly give us tours of the private and public hospitals in the cities you cover?

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Yeah sure, we do day tours. Get in touch and ask. Robin will take you www.algarveaddicts.com/contact

[@Mr.S65]

When I see rentals in Loulé they show Vilamoura which isn’t what I’m looking for. I visited Loulé and I loved it. I’d live there if I could. I’m in central Portugal which has helped me develop my Portuguese. Loulé seems ideal to continue my progress, or isn’t it as Portuguese as I think?

[@AlgarveAddicts]

It's definitely not as Portuguese as central Portugal, but better than the coastal towns and resorts down here.

[@carlosvictor8679]

antonio aleixo was born in vila real de santo antonio in 1899.

[@bridpentony]

You should have discount codes for the places you review and recommend…👍

[@FotosLostnFound]

What was the price of your Japanese lunch? Beautiful food presentation!

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Good point, it was €44.50 for two of us with no wine and one desert to share. Pretty expensive in my book, but worth it.

[@pbohearn]

What’s your thought about the new Viceroy development?

[@AlgarveAddicts]

I think it's a great spot, I was there the other day. We know them pretty well, if you're interested, I'll introduce you.

[@shawnpark7620]

Hi Nick...would you happen to know if smoking is allowed in these apartments...might be a negative if you're a non-smoker....thanks for an interesting vid

[@AlgarveAddicts]

You're welcome Shawn. I don't think it's too much of a problem but definitely on a case by case basis.

[@FotosLostnFound]

Is there an alternate market in which to shop daily /weekly in loule that isnt so touristy ?

[@AlgarveAddicts]

No, I think Verity was referring to other towns like Almancil and Quarteira. It's only touristy because of the amount of people on Saturdays and the lack of parking.

[@georgecrown6394]

Nick, I would like to know if we want to rent something in Tavira, for $3000 US per month for two bedroom apartment that allows dogs. Is this posible?

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Hi George, yes it's possible. It's more tricky with dogs but it's possible. Get in touch with us, we'll be able to help you www.algarveaddicts.com/contact

[@georgecrown6394]

Nick, thank you for the fast response. My wife and I just came back from a wonderful trip to Lisbon and Tavira. I was captivated by the charm of Tavira. We are at least 1 year away from being able to come over to Tavira. As the time gets closer, we will definitely reach out. George Crown

[@maxflight777]

Can you imagine the “property tax “ revenue from QDL VDL !

[@AlgarveAddicts]

It's what pays them bills!

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Thanks, I know, we both messed up. Embarrassing! ☺️

[@carlosvictor8679]

[@maxfella]

Good job Nick. Tell your friend Camisa or Camiza mean shirt not jacket😂

[@AlgarveAddicts]

Gosh, you're right! Apologies .

[@user-uv2eg9zq9w]
