Port wine tasting and photography walks in Porto with Heather! | Evan Edinger Travel Vlog

[@iicydiamonds]

The looks Heather gives you when you make the reeeeally bad puns. Or when she just turns and walks away... GOLD! Heather is my hero. :)

[@joshc-dev]

yay another travel vlog from Evan

[@momentos...]

You've only been to the oldest and most central part of Porto, but the city is much more than that! I loved the videos!!

[@TheMissWin]

Regarding the missing roofs, I recently learnt that some places have a significantly reduced tax on buildings under construction... So they just don't 'finish' them.

[@laineydunlap9757]

Such a fun vlog. Yay for new adventures! Always up for a vlog, any and everywhere.

[@Februarlig]

I too love the picture of you and Heather together :)

[@stacker63]

I love your travel vlogs so much evan!! Been watching them for so many years now and they are such a comfort watch for me. And since 2018 roughly the already amazing production quality has gone up 10 fold!! :)

[@tomrogue13]

Evans vlogs are some of the best!

[@MariDangerfield]

Was shooting a music video in literally the same park last year!

[@christybeem3483]

I would love to see you vlogging in London or parts therearound.

[@Carin116]

Lovely to see you enjoyed my city 🥰 wish I could've run into you guys!!!

[@RipBea]

As a Portista living in the UK, this made me incredibly homesick

[@madisonary9240]

I stayed at the same hostel and Castro is absolutely the best Pasteis de Nata! Glad you found it.

[@webbpaje]

such a chill and scenic vlog. would love to see more london vlogging too :)

[@williamrees6662]

You need to head to Pinhao for the best port.

It's so strange to see youtubers I follow for years visiting my hometown. Glad you enjoyed! I've got lots of memories all over where you walked, I'm still living here. Good to see you came to my side of the river to see the view of Porto from here 👌

[@Devyn_Caldwell]

I am moving from Philadelphia to Porto this summer (no plans to return to the US). Porto is indeed on the small side, but there is much charm to be found and it still feels like a city. Glad you enjoyed your time there. Oh, and Sao Bento is not the main train station (it used to be), the main station is Campanha, about 2.5 km to the east.

[@tomrogue13]

Can I ask why you're moving?

[@billieshearstone2963]

i would love to see london footage

[@proskipper1]

Am guessing like many Med countries - you don't pay house tax until the property is finished ie part build buildings dont pay tax!

[@ananeto81]

I am really happy that you have enjoyed my beautiful city. I lived in London for nearly 8 years but now I am back home, near the ocean that I missed so much. I love seeing Heather on your videos. Lots of love from Portugal ❤️

7:30 - There's no south side of Porto, Porto is only on the north side of the river. The "south side", as you called it, is a completely different city called Gaia, which is a separate municipality and county in Porto district.

[@LaPingvino]

It's part of the AMP though, just like e.g. Almada in the AML.

[@module79l28]

@@LaPingvino - I didn't say it wasn't but the AMP or the AML are not administrative divisions like a municipality or a county are.

[@hannahbee567]

How'd you find a good hostel like that ? Previous exp of hostels is 4-10 others in the room witb and sharing showers 😬 but they are always such better costed

[@carolinetaylor5594]

Yes the more videos the better. 😁 No pressure though.

[@AthynVixen]

Really weird to hear you talk about wild west style houses as at the beginning of that section for a second there i thought you were wearing s stetson

[@looseherb1393]

Heather is so lovely :) did they ever share the story how they got together?

[@anshunegi1700]

❤❤🎉🎉⭐⭐⭐good

[@Tiagzz]

Just wanted to let you know Portuguese Js aren't pronounced like Spanish Js

[@GLOBOLG]

The roofless houses... well you'll notice that a lot of them are in prime areas... it's a way to get a license to rebuild: If you are in a historical area there's a lot things you can't do to your building by municipal law... so owners found this scheme... let your roof come down (after "years" of neglect) and then your property is considered "hazardous". That way you can rebuild with looser historical autenticity regulations. Nowadays they gut everything and build from the inside maintaining the facade, because it's more turistical. In older days they'd use that scheme to tear down an old house and build an apartement building in restricted areas thus optimising profits. Not sure if taxes are the reason as municipal taxes are obligatory irrespectly of building status.
