Porto looks SO beautiful. I can't wait to go there someday! 😌

[@nopsil]

Love to see both of your happy faces again, have nice and safe trips.

[@Cyn205]

I miss Portugal so much! I visited for the time in May and fell in love!!! Porto was my favorite 🥰 it looks way more packed than it was in May.

[@Jacksaigon2805]

wow, i love the architecture , atmosphere and Joy from both of you. thank you for sharing us

[@Aviram124]

I love watching you together. It takes a lot of commitment for you two to power through the travel that you do.

[@ginapino2857]

I’m reminiscing my trips to Portugal through your video…. Enjoy Portugal! It’s a beautiful country with super friendly people, great food and wine and variety of sights and cities that vary region to region. Can’t wait to see what parts of Portugal you will be visiting 😎

[@TheVid1000]

Porto is my favorite city in Portugal - in fact I’m going to be there in about 3 weeks! Can’t wait! Hope you get to take the local train up the Douro Valley from São Bento station - awesome scenery!

[@TheVid1000]

Definitely the train - more relaxing! 😎

[@TheVid1000]

Other tips from Porto? Douro Valley wineries tour. Check out Guimaraes and Ponte de Lima for a lovely small town vibe!

[@TheVid1000]

I used Porto as a base. Train and wineries I did as two separate trips. Wineries trip I organized at the tourist office, which was near the cathedral.

[@TheVid1000]

Guimaraes, there are trains from Porto there. Ponte de Lima, I went to when I was walking the Camino de Santiago. No trains, so Google buses from Porto.

[@TheVid1000]

However you do your trip - train, bus, car, etc. - it will be amazing. There is no “right” way to do it. Boa viagem!

[@kristinboone8370]

I am so excited to watch you travel again. I only found your channel a few weeks back and have been binge watching and living vicariously through the two of you. I love watching you both experience things for the first time. Can't wait for this next adventure!

[@kymwright263]

Get well soon guys xxx

[@ursul7024]

Great to see you guys back on the road again. New camera is working well - great job! Keep smiling, walking and loving 💕

[@DavidandSarah]

The gelato looks delicious! The tile buildings are pretty cool. As for Tia's dinner....WOW...

[@cathyhughes7442]

We have only been to Lisbon which was amazing and so reasonable for food and drink. Loved the egg custard tarts x

[@botende20]

So happy to have you in my hometown 🥰and that you loved Francesinha and the sunset from Gaia! Reply if you want to have an awesome tour through Lisbon 🥳🙌🏼

[@fhatami5667]

Get well soon！

[@vinhquyen46]

Welcome to Portugal, new country new exploring. Hope to see more places during time in Portugal.

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

Porto is the BEST! One of Bill's favorite cities. I swear the Pastel da Nata is life changing. I don't like custards but those little crispy, gooey, tarts are freaking amazing. 😍 Enjoy! And get some rest for all the walking!

[@jamessocal8946]

Portugal is something new and different for you, but I sense a feeling of comfort already. Good start to year 2.

[@Potomacstud]

The dynamic duo is in Porto , name after Port wine , the coastal city is one of the routes to the Camino , Porto is known to be rather hilly city , kinda like San Francisco , gradient a bit on the steep side , advisable to wear proper footwear

[@shelleyjubb]

Nice to be back on the road…but that jet lag hey hope you recover well, looks like a great adventure to get there. The camera is a good choice for investment looks great and new music for the new year how fun. Can’t wait to see what you get up to next.

[@foetwenny]

Looking forward to year 2!

[@juancarlo6625]

I’ve been waiting for this! Love Porto!

[@howardredford9488]

Awesome lovely couple . I like to see you guys with little one in the foreseeable future.

[@DiogoF.]

You chose the best of two biggest cities in Portugal.

[@butenbremer1965]

Portugal.... the country I'd spent many of my early childhood summer vacations in! It's such a lovable place with amazing Seafood to go for. I've never been to Porto myself, though - the Portuguese cities I've visited as of yet are Sesimbra (Summers of 1969-1971), Cascais, and Lisbon. Go for all their Seafood options, Portuguese just know how to do Seafood best....

[@WILLNEVERCONFORM]

Oh don't they !!! Specially those plump, humble BBQ Atlantic Sardines

[@kenpak5368]

Hey great improvement in picture quality with your new Sony camera. Especially noticed the improvement with your dinner footage. Low light quality was impressive. The edit was nice too !! Good job. Keep it up. Your hard work is noticeable.

[@OnePackWanderers]

Thank you 😊 When we imported it over for edit, we were both so happy with the dinner footage. Was so nice not having a ton of noise and artifacts!

[@kenpak5368]

@@OnePackWanderers Now all you need are the customary food porn shots that Sony does so well.

[@CrissyUnfiltered]

I absolutely miss Porto! It was my favorite city. I love it there! Hope you both have an amazing time!

[@OnePackWanderers]

Thank you! 😊 How are you liking Malaysia?

[@CrissyUnfiltered]

@@OnePackWanderers I’m back in Thailand for a couple more days but the food in Malaysia was amazing!

[@thesiestanomads7188]

Don’t miss Mercado Beira Rio !!!!

[@mmaranta785]

Those buildings are cool.

[@skussy1097]

Great that you are back in Europe! It will be very busy and expensive all over Europe untill the end of August as then all summer holidays will be over. If you have the chance you guys should visit Mallorca, Spain. It's a beautiful island.

[@OnePackWanderers]

Indeed, we have noticed the prices are much higher than last year, even accounting for the EUR/USD parity. Happy to be back, though 😊

[@rosemarywalker924]

Love porto and the food and people the fish dish is bacalhau a` bras salt cod potatoes and black olive yummy 😋 with a nice white wine lovely thank you 😊

[@hans-ulrichfischer963]

cool you arrived... san francisco of portugal..😂 check out Lisabon first.. enjoy

[@hans-ulrichfischer963]

if you feel like... in a relaxing moment.. dont miss Anthony Bourdin, episode in Porto.. one of his best under parts unknown..

[@nofood1]

I've never heard anyone in my life say they don't like Portugal. Enjoy!

[@brookereynolds6304]

Spent 2 weeks in Portugal over Christmas. Lisbon is called the mini San Francisco, a lot more hills than Porto but funny you made that connection without knowing. It’s just Lisbon not Porto

[@OnePackWanderers]

That's funny 😅 Excited for Lisbon! It looks like a beautiful city.

[@dsjkim]

Looking forward to see the Portugal!! You guys are amazing 👏

[@MillaExplores]

Glad to see you got to Portugal safe and sound, it's gonna be fun to see you explore Portugal! Tourism has definitely picked up in Europe, it's nice to see people again and everything is super lively, but it's more crowded in many places which is one downside 😊

[@wafwaf9095]

Hello to you, Thanks for all vidéos you make, its an inspiration for us, you are à beautiful couple, so Lucky to be with someone who share this kind of dream. Thank you again for all time and efforts you dedicate to us😀

[@quanhuynh5077]

I really like watching you guys videos

[@MegaIluvjustin]

Can you guys put down the places you ate at? I would love suggestions of places to eat

[@Wanderer509-]

New year, Big camera, move over Rick Steves! 😁👍

[@OnePackWanderers]

Hahaha Rick Steves is the OG travel guy isn't he?

[@WWK186]

Great video quality!

[@northernbloke]

Heading to Portugal pretty soon. Will have to remember some of these dishes. They do look quite rich ?

[@Taknight2006]

Hey, Tia & Cheveyo. I don't think you are fully taking the advantage of your new gear. A7IV is very expensive and can do a lot more. Shoot 4K! You can reduce Mbps if the file is getting too big and hard to edit. But if you still want to keep it HD, filmed in 4K can help you to punch in certain shots without losing clarity like in 4:06.

[@OnePackWanderers]

Very close guess! We got the A7SIII 🙂 We have played around with 4K, but the file sizes are still too big (even at a lower bitrate). Right now we are trying to strike a balance by filming with a high bitrate 1080p. Internet speeds are also a concern in Europe. At our place here in Porto it takes 5 hours to upload a 1.5GB~ video file. Definitely not taking full advantage of the camera, but I hope that will come with time 😅

[@Taknight2006]

​@@OnePackWanderers Very nice choice. It is a very tough camera it will be with you for a very long time. Wow, 5 hours for a 1.5Gb video; that is quite ridiculously slow. Really, can it be that slow? I guess I'm taking internet speed in my country for granted huh. Porto is one place I really want to visit. Guess I will be tagging along with your videos. Anyway, enjoy your trip in Portugal.

[@gtagide]

I adore Porto I die for a Francesinha

[@christinehunter7238]

Food looks awesome. What new camera / lens did you get.?... nice and sharp.

[@william4071]

Go dinner to A Tasquinha. Order cod with tomato rice. Orthe meat. You wont regret it.

[@TannTran]

A half dozens of egg tarts, a cup of coffee, attractive enough for me to go visiting Portugal again. Your city vlog of Porto, made me think I did miss a lot NOT visiting this city last time I was in Portugal. Gotta revisit Portugal again soon. Thanks 😋😎

[@Suzannes_Trip]

I was in Porto In late summer or maybe early fall 2019. I am curious what neighborhood you stayed in. I stayed up by the airport about a 3 min walk from the metro, 30 minute metro ride from the tourist area downtown. I am happy with where I stayed, but next time would love to stay closer. Also where did you get that yummy dinner? As always thank you for your content!!! I love watching and don't miss a single video!!!

[@latebloomerabroad]

I got the Charles Schwab ATM card that reimburses ATM fees for my 6-month trip around the world, and it worked great! It was a game changer, because I didn't need to withdraw as much each time, which isn't great because of the risk of theft or loss.

[@OnePackWanderers]

We have the Fidelity debit cards. But yes, same principle! To make the percentages work as well as possible, we had to withdraw hundreds of dollars each time and that was nerve-wracking in some places. Are you all finished with your trip?

[@latebloomerabroad]

@@OnePackWanderers Yes, I got back 2 weeks ago. That was 6 months I’ll never forget! I probably won’t ever travel again for more than a month at a time, but I’m sure glad I finally did it.👍🏻

[@inesnpinheiro]

I found your channel because of your Korea videos. I’m going to visit Korea in September and I watched all of your vlogs to get inspiration. And now you’re in my city Porto. 😊 You should try Francesinha in Cafe Santiago is the best in the city 😘

[@inesnpinheiro]

The other city is Vila Nova de Gaia 😉

[@PaulinAsia_]

I so love that you guys are in Portugal. I have 3 destinations to retire: Thailand, Portugal and Philippines. Thank You

[@WILLNEVERCONFORM]

Hey Aussie, ditto, been here in sth Portugal 14 months, if you love food, this is the country. I'll be back in Asia in 3 weeks for a while too.

[@PaulinAsia_]

@@WILLNEVERCONFORM So jealous😀

[@WILLNEVERCONFORM]

[@jtodd4]

Vila Nova De Gaia across the river. Fantastic place! If you want dinner and a show, go check out Ristorante Pizzeria S. Martino Presitge. Manager and staff are a hoot...if you follow the rules!

[@OnePackWanderers]

Ha, that last part has us intrigued!

[@bradbullough8846]

Make sure to eat lots of Custard tarts.

[@dinigi]

you guys seem to be having a lot of fun. me and my girlfriend (both living in switzerland) started last week and flew from italy to seoul, tomorrow we are taking a train to busan and then plan on flying to Hawaii. Thought it was funny that you guys had a similar trajectory. Any advice on what to do after Hawaii? Maybe California? Cheers

[@OnePackWanderers]

Ha, what a coincidence. Are you guys planning on renting a car in the US? California is a really great second destination after Hawaii, but it is very car-centric (even by American standards).

[@dinigi]

@@OnePackWanderers hey thanks for the reply. We are a bit concerned about going there because of the high criminality.. i've read that driving around with a rented vehicle makes you an easy target in places like san francisco

[@suerowan3594]

Hello Tia&Cheveyo 😍Wonderful you arrived in Portugal safely. looking forward to your journey Take Care Stay Safe 😍

[@dannydinh3244]

US dollar is almost parity with Euro so it’s a perfect time to travel to Europe

[@OnePackWanderers]

With food it has been very nice. With accommodation and travel, though, we have noticed that prices are 2-4x as much as last year. I think it is because of the huge demand for travel in Europe this summer.

[@HungNguyen-zo9nu]

Hi guys, please do not forget to visit France. Show us " la vie francaise and specially The Eiffel Tower."

[@nofood1]

trash

[@ahmedmashhour1912]

even though I wish you would have gone anywhere other than Europe because it's so familiar so it won't be as fun as an Asian country or a middle eastern country, I'm still gonna enjoy every last bit of the new vlogs

[@FSVR54]

familiar for who though? They've lived in Arizona their whole lives

[@nova_juan]

LUV your travel adventures 💖 I like Asia a little more than Europe, but it's OK. NEW camera is a great improvement. Watching on tablet from cellphone Hotspot. Hope you have many, many more happy adventures together!! If you two can spend so much 24/7 time together you should find your favorite place in the world and just get M...... LOL U know

[@jnguyen421]

Can you guys post the price of the food and drinks. I'm curious as we thinking of visiting. Thanks

[@stewartl5109]

Hey guys from Vietnam 🇻🇳.. I will relax and myself into the chair to look forward to this next journey for both of you? 😊😊🙏🏻🙏🏻 I guess you are using your new camera? I feel you are finding your way around the new camera.. Are my eyes playing up I just feel your iPhone footage was much more clear? This is my opinion perhaps some more Colour grading or adjusting settings. A little shaky in some of your B- Roll? I’m no expert either but a non critical observation. I feel your learning on this new addition to your camera gear will take some time to master perhaps! Keep the vids coming your guys as I like your style! Stay safe to both of you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🇻🇳🇻🇳

[@OnePackWanderers]

The first several videos will definitely be a bit janky as we figure everything out. We have noticed the colors are much less saturated, but also (to our eyes) more true to life. Feedback is always appreciated! Thank you.

Thanks for letting us join in your travels again. And again: Welcome to Europe! You picked a great time. Covid restrictions are over, the world is getting a little better (with the exception of Ukraine. We do sympathize with you guys! Keep up the good work!). Portugal is wonderful with great food and super friendly people. Enjoy. You are such an inspiration for would-be travellers. Also some of the best people to be enjoyed. We have been following you around the world. As a result we will resume travelling post-covid as from September 1. Largely due to your travels. Thanks for all the joy and inspiration you bring. Can't wait to smell the sweet odour of jet fuel again soon. Happy travels and keep up the good work.

[@acobbler449]

I think your budget in Vietnam was 100.00 per day ?, What is it in Portugal ?

[@OnePackWanderers]

Our annualized average budget is $100. Our daily budget in Vietnam was actually $70/day, or $35 per person. In Europe it is $150/day, but we try to come in under that as often as we can. Right now, it's very difficult to find a hotel or hostel for less than $100/night when you factor in two people. So that's where most of our budget is going at the moment.
