Guys, just for you to understand how good you guys are doing... Even in Asia, I've talked to people who told me: "Are you from Portugal?" - "Yep" - "Nice, I watch a channel on youtube from a danish couple who lives in Portugal, it's super cool". Keep up with the good work. Well done :)

That's very cool! Given the low amount of views we get, it seems rather crazy! :D But very cool that we can reach people all the way out there! :) Cheers

Well. Zeca Afonso and Monsaraz. I shivered all over. Dam good! I have been following you since last year and I take this opportunity to say thank you for everything. Thank you for being who you are and for showing us this special country, Portugal. :)

OLá amigos!Consigo vêr...é evidente a vossa transformação...em cada dia que passa vocês estão a ficar mais e mais Portuguêses e cada vez mênos Dinamarquêses! O Zeca Afonso , está para aquém e além da política.Conheci-o em vida e vejo-o exclusivamente como um grande artista, criadôr e compositôr da Alma Portuguêsa, pois pegou na Música do Pôvo e sem a destruir, Recriou melodias que são tão Belas quanto Portuguêsas....e vocês gostam. Um Abraço e Continuem. Hello friends! I can see ... your transformation is evident ... with each passing day you are becoming more and more Portuguese and less and less Danish! Zeca Afonso, falls short and beyond politics. I met him in life and I see him exclusively as a great artist, creator and composer of the Portuguese Soul, because he took the People's Music (Traditional) and without destroying it, He recreated melodies that are as Beautiful as they are Portuguese ... and you like it. A Hug and Continue.

About shortage of cork, in your last video What happen it was that some years ago new world producers started complaining about the cork closures introducing TCA in the wine. Then specially Australians (and New Zealand) move on to plastic closures. The problem was that they were "maçaricos" :) AKA NEW (new world and new producers) they had no experience. Because TCA can be introduce in the wine trough several ways other then the cork. When you started to realize that even with plastic closures there were wines with TCA... producers started to come back to cork closures... for several reasons (the cork allows the wine to breath and it's much more environmentally friendly then plastic and it's use promotes the protection of cork oaks forests) Besides in the last 20 years the cork industrie improve the quality so much that is rare to open a bottle with TCA here in Portugal

Reguengos de Monsaraz is a very beautiful municipality that you need to visit if you are in the area. Great food, great landscapes, the Alqueva dam and the beautiful town of Monsaraz... ah, and the wine (I don't like wine, but if you like it's a good area to try it). One question: "anho" and "año" are false friends. "Anho" in Portuguese is a small "cabrito" (little goat) and if you have to say "año" in Portuguese you have to say "ano", with no palatization on the "n".

[@edviges1]

I agree with Joen 100%. I am not the only one that sees it. Outside seating in Portugal is all a big "sponsor" thing. All tables, umbrellas, chairs, etc... They all belong to some big company. Esthetically is ugly as hell. Instead of having their own furniture and be creative, owners decided the "easy way" giving the big companies huge free ads in exchange of free furniture. Ugly to cross a town and see "Super Bock", "Ola" "Delta" etc written everywhere. I went to Viseu this past summer... The mayor there prohibited the use of this kind of ads. The result is a "clean" pleasant city... Eye friendly. It became my favorite city in the country. Not just because of that of course but is no wonder is considered the "best place to live in Portugal" many years in a row.

yes, but all the international credit goes to the Spanish food, which is now one of trendiest in the world, some of the most acclaimed restaurants in the world are spanish. Portugal is nowhere near that...so ..something Portugal is doing bad!

[@ALFRABEIRA]

@@nacht98 They can keep the international credit and the trendiest restaurants. Spain is a marketing product. Like Coca cola. A shit drink full of sugar with no soul. Portugal has a genuine, very diversified, traditional and down to earth gastronomy. Those who come and get to know our gastronomy, fall in love with it. Michelin stars are very good but they have no soul. Michelin food tastes the same evrywhere in the world. The road of portuguese gastromy is being made steadily. International recognition will come and has already started to come.

@@ricardopontes7177 Já estive na Galiza e não troco qualquer comida portuguesa por comida galega. Incluindo marisco. Já comi polvo no Japão muito superior ao que se come na Galiza e até em Portugal. O problema de Espanha é que se acham melhores do que aquilo que são.

I, Amalie/Joen. I, like the huge majority of your followers, absolutely love the way you put Portugal (including Madeira and Azores), on the map, you deserve all the luck, respect and why not? the love of all the Portuguese nation, home and abroad. I have a request to you, (???) can you ask JOEL, of all the many costumers he come across over the years, where would he put you on the ranking? I have my own opinion, which I believe is not far from the one my Country mates have, obviously, as a professional tour guide, he should see things in a different perspective, I believe it would be interesting to know.
