Moving to Portugal Vlog 6 - SEF Appointments and Finding A Rental Home

[@rebeccagutierrez1960]

Wow! You guys are by far the best resource on Portugal. My learning style is quite kinesthetic and this is what your video does. One can also feel the three dimensional aspect of it all.

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

Thanks for the feedback! So glad you like it!! ☺️

Probably the BEST explanation of pub trans I've ever seen. How I wish everyone used this as a tutorial before fumbling around trying to figure out the system. Great, fun job.

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

thank u! we fumbled a few times learning it 😅

[@milesandcoffee]

Great information!

[@cindigreen9345]

thanks so much for this quality production! fun and informative. Coming for a first visit to Portugal in June!

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

thank you! and you're gonna love it! the weather is starting to get warm 🙌🏼

Another great video. So much helpful information in an organized, cohesive, and well-edited package. I was also happy to learn more about Monsanto Park. It's obviously enormous on the map, but I hadn't seen much footage from inside. What a great park to live next to! You guys really did well with your home rental. Congratulations and please keep these videos coming!

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

thank you so much! it really means a lot. We will be making shorter videos about different things to do including drone shots of the Monsanto Park 🤗

Wow, you guys did an amazing job with this video! I just watched a couple more segments of yours and you are to be applauded for your high production quality and rich content. Well done! I’m a fan of your channel now ;-)

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

Thank you so much!! We love doing the videos and comments like yours make our day! ☺️

Excellent content as usual. Inflation in the U.S. is running very high. How is it in Portugal?

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

Thanks! Inflation is on the rise in Portugal though not as crazy as the States. It was at 2.8% in 2021and has been well below 2% for years here.

Congrats on your new home, it looks great! What did you think of Setubal when you visited? It looks like a great place to live too. It would be great to see a video about Setubal!

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

Thanks, we love our new place! We will be visiting Setúbal more and the wineries there too. We'll definitely do a video about it.

Loved your video! I especially love that you believe in signs from your mom...so do I. It's comforting to have that affirmation that your making the right decisions ❤. We arrive in May & move into our apartment in Porto in June.

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

Thank you! It's been a surprise to feel the connection with my Mom and it's so reassuring. Best of luck on your move! We haven't been to Porto yet but plan to go this year. 🥰

Thanks so much for the great videos - so informative! Would love to hear more about your experience with having dogs. Do you leave them at home when you are out and about? Are they welcome in and around Lisbon - like restaurants, etc? Looking forward to your next video from Malaga! Thanks again for taking us along on your adventure.

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

Thanks for watching! 😊 We have taken the doggies to cafes, restaurants and parks. We also have a few enclosed dog parks near us with agility equipment that are great. We feel Lisbon is pet friendly and most places that have outdoor seating allow dogs. Also, we've taken them on the ferry but not on the metro or trains yet. We have seen other dogs on both though. Che is 9 years old and just can't walk as long as he used to so we don't usually take them out for the day, only to places near us. They stay home snoozing when we go out sightseeing or downtown.

Congrats you guys! What a journey - so appreciate all the incredibly useful detail you always cover so well! Thank you!

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

Aaawww...thanks! We really enjoy making the videos. 😊

[@dr.mollinedo]

Had so much fun visiting! Can’t wait to come back! Love and miss you guys ❤️

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

We can't wait for you to come back! Love you more!! See you in Paris soon. 🥰

Hi, it’s exciting to start a chapter in Portugal! Are you able to move within the EU within the six month period?

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

yes! you can travel and getting easier to do so as covid restrictions are slowly being lifted

[@Mr.S65]

@@SeekingParadiseBugs Grand! Im so looking forward to be able to do the same

[@Mr.S65]

I take that you were able to use temporary accommodations to get your D7. Could you have done the same at the SEF ?

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

yes. The temporary accomodation we used was good for the SEF appointments also

[@Mr.S65]

@@SeekingParadiseBugs Thank you

Hello guys, first let me just say that my wife and I love your videos, your description of each and everyone of the places that you guys visited is just amazing, one thing that I wanted to ask you is if you don’t mind telling me the kind of cámara and drone that you’re using, I would like to invest into something similar if possible for when my wife and I start visiting different places. Thank you in advance and continue with your videos we enjoy them a lot I’m sure as everyone else. Cèsar

[@SeekingParadiseBugs]

thank you César! we have a lot of fun making the videos. I used a DJI Osmo action cam, my pixel 5 phone is also useful for many shots and the drone is a DJI Spark. I just got the new Insta360 X3 and it's been amazing! very cool shots and easy editing. I highly recommend that one. Good luck!

[@cesarvieitez6661]

@@SeekingParadiseBugs Thank you Guillermo I appreciate your quick response, I will definitely look into those.
