As a brazillian i'd like to say Portugal is my favorite country on earth, the culture, the language, the architecture, the people, the food, the weather, the safety, i can't describe what i feel when i see those landscapes, the city, the mountains, the rivers, the castles, the beaches, i feel something in my heart.

[@TruthMatters9674]

Too many Brazilians here, however, half a million. This place will turn into a Brazil (ironically the very thing Brazilians are trying to escape from) in a few years.

He shows the mindset of a friend from abroad, who's eager to discover the country as it really is. My experience: wherever I went, I set up my mind like that. I've received the appreciation of a guest from the vast majority of the people I met. I don't behave like an ignorant tourist, so I'm not being treated like one, either.

[@josephrego2527]

Portugal is truly the world's living museum. It's amazing that so much beauty, history, culture and varied landscapes can be found in such a tiny nation, all within a stone's throw from the ocean.

[@DaveinPortugal]

Sure is! It's astounding how much is packed into such a small country

[@Zwei-Rosen]

"Ever since I've arrived here, my Portuguese friends told me..." is what makes the difference between a tourist and a visitor. While the tourists stay in their resort with fellow citizens, familiar food and guided tours, visitors come in respect & appreciation, make new friends- and learn to know the really amazing places.

[@yogi2596]

Dave, that was an incredible video. As an American, living in Europe, I really appreciate it. I am really considering retiring in Portugal and you really hit some great places, of which I was unaware. I must also compliment you on your Portuguese pronunciations as they seem quite good. It is an educational opportunity for English speakers to learn the proper way of speaking the language rather than bastardizing it into an English way. When you move to a country, you should adapt. Thanks again.

[@emilybelkina5071]

I must mention that português people are very kind to us, foreigners, cause they bothered to learn English, which is second language for almost all people in the world. In Spain, France and Italy almost no one gives a damn about English 😅

We were in Portugal a few weeks back. Batalha and Tomar ( husband 's family home town) were 2 stops we made and I can say were absolutely stunning. I love the regional towns so much.

I live in beautiful Maui, and we have a very large Portuguese population here on the islands... after visiting Madeira and Azores for the first time, I understand why the Portuguese fell in love with our beloved Hawaiian islands. Truly, Portugal is the paradise of the Atlantic! Obrigado for your fantastic video and Mahalo for the island of Maui... come visit soon, Dave, Mai Tais on the beach on me! Saude!

From video capture, sound design to each region, and your portuguese keeping better and better, i dunno which one i should say you improved the most. Big congrats and thank you for letting us being a little bit more proud of this little corner of the world. 🇵🇹❤️

Nice job, Dave! Good to see some lesser-mentioned towns. I almost literally stumbled across Batalha last summer, and almost had a heart attack when I rounded the bend and beheld the Monastery! Truly mindblowing.

[@RIWAJEDITZ]

[@DaveinPortugal]

Right!?? After traveling most of Europe, Batalha is one of my favorites

[@FlipOver]

The way you pronounced "Aljubarrota" was indicating of how hard you tried to say it right. And I appreciate how hard that word can be to pronounce correctly to an American. As a Portuguese, I have to congratulate you on both the effort put in learning Portuguese as well as making an effort towards having a very good pronunciation. Also, awesome video you put up here. It is amazing how a small country (geographically speaking) like Portugal has so much to offer and it can vary so much between east, west, north and south. Stay safe and keep making this awesome content.

[@rellaenthia]

For anyone considering coming to live here, as a Portuguese, I ask please that you look at the costs and prices of things versus our average salary...and then not accept absurd rents that make it impossible to find a place to live on an average income. Please please please ❤ and thank you. Dave, brilliant video, excellent prononciation and I think you've earned your "Tuga" badge! One of us, one of us!

Most excellent video! I typically watch KZbin on TV with no way to leave comments. Had to hop on my phone to say, “THANKS for including parts of Portugal that are not typically found on KZbin!” Love your channel, man! I’m from the Pacific Northwest and while most travelers / expats are looking at southern PT, I’m interested in the NORTHERN region. Would love to see more on that if you are so inclined. Thanks again!!!

Just for the people that think Douro river crosses Porto... The actual city is just on the north bank of Douro. On the south one, it's Gaia... another beautiful city. Currently, there are six bridges connecting the two cities. In fact, Porto and Gaia are the two European cities with the most bridges (since they share them). Also... Porto is the city that named Portugal and is also known as Invicta (which means "invincible").

This was a great video. The more videos I see about Portugal, the more things I add to my list to explore on my next trip there. I feel so grateful that my first introduction to Portugal was spending a week in Carvoeiro as a house sitter.

I'm from Portugal and have been there many times, but this year was the first time I actually got to see some of the country outside of Lisbon. I have to say that one of the coolest things I saw, that I really wasn't expecting, was the view from the rooftop of Santa Luzia in Viana Do Castelo. Even climbing the staircase was an experience. I didn't get to see the Celtic ruins nearby, but I bet there's something interesting there too.

Thank you Dave for putting together such inspiring video about Portugal 🇵🇹 ! However, I couldn't help but notice a few gems that weren't mentioned. In the Algarve, towns like Tavira, known for its 30+ churches, and Olhão, the cubist town of Moorish flat roofs, are truly remarkable. Not to forget Vila Real de Santo António, a testament to the importance of pombaline urbanism, and Mértola, a medieval Moorish village overlooking the Guadiana. I could venture north and enumerate the many charming fortified, walled and white-washed towns of Alentejo, like Évora or Monsaraz, even further to the Beiras, where you'd discover Coimbra, with its ancient university, palaces and rich history. However, I'll leave this for you to discover. I hope this holds as an invitation for you to explore the rich landscape and many of the other unknown historical sites of Portugal. Thank you once again for showcasing Portugal's beauty! All the best
