The Azores - Full Episode

[@gregorycasey7358]

Lived there for Two years thank to the Air Force. Love it so much and the people are great. Loved the weather and so beautiful.

[@Erikthetravelguy]

Thanks Gregory!

[@tubbyrainbow111]

Did you struggle to get by with English? Do you ever get down to ice on the car window weather there?

[@ReefahCheef]

Still boggles my mind how my parents migrated to Massachusetts from Sao Miguel. I understand why but... wow. What a sacrifice. Can't wait for my next visit.

[@Erikthetravelguy]

It is a pretty cool place! I really enjoyed my visit!

[@dianetm8557]

My mother left in the 50’s for RI.

[@fabianolins]

Been there once and I am telling you this is one of the most beautiful islands you can visit. The food is great and the air is so clean that you can smell the flowers into the air.

[@joedunbarjr]

When I was in the U.S. Navy I spent a little time in the Azores. If there was any chance to go back I would jump at it. The Islands are beautiful too a level of being breathtaking. The food is wonderful and any chance you get for something homemade take it. But all that said what makes the Azores special is the people. I have never been made more welcome in all my travels. Show respect with the locals and you will be made to feel at home. This place and these people will enrich your life with peace and tranquility.

[@Erikthetravelguy]

Well said, Joe! I agree with you 100%! I loved visiting!

[@joedunbarjr]

@@Erikthetravelguy because of my travels I have had many people ask me where would I live if I had the choice. Hands down without even giving it a second thought the Azores would be that choice. All you have to do is be polite and honest! Do that and with time you will be considered a local by the people that have lived there all their life. If any of you have a chance to go there please move that to the top of your wish list, you will not regret it.

The Azores are really a great place to spend time (hiking, whale watching, ...) in a beautiful nature. Thank you for sharing this great video!

[@williamwade6516]

I lived at Lakes Air Force Base. The food was good, the beaches are black sand, the fishing is great, the people are friendly.I was there in 1968 and 69, when I was 9 and 10.

It's Lajes Air Force Base.

Beautiful açores, can’t wait to have my Mexican passport out to go there and have a wonderful time while learning some Portuguese! Europe is always a great place in earth to go ;)

[@Erikthetravelguy]

Sorry but a Mexican passport won't get you there. Stop insulting both the Mexicans and the Portuguese. Portugal is a European country.

Wonderfully presented and very stylish a great introduction to the Azores and best of all a guy who doesn't care about getting wet in the rain 😎

[@Erikthetravelguy]

Thank you so much! Yes, I remember that interview well! It’s was very wet!

[@Spaceface3]

Wow, my family came from there and came to Hawaii from the late 1800- early 1900s, but no wonder they love Hawaii it looks a lot similar, I have to visit for sure, I probably have family that I don’t know about.

[@giannism6875]

WoW that’s so cool! I actually just learned about the Azorean and Madeiran plantation workers that migrated to Hawaii and Im very fascinated, I’m going to Hawai’i in two days and I can’t wait to experience the cultural hybrid it is, also wanna try malasadas . Btw do u still live in Hawaii and do you know how significant the Portuguese culture is there?

[@polynesianwahine]

I am Kanaka Maoli as well born and raised In Hawaii just found out I’m Azorean from AncestryDna very exciting to look and explore into my own history.

[@moosetracks656]

My grandpas side came from St George island in the Azores and jumped ship to California 😂

[@craigferreira3498]

Wow mine too. Portuguese sailed there to shot call in the mostly pineapple industry although some farmed,rancher and some surfed. Dozens of ships filled the bill of providing smart hard working people that were in demand. My fraternal grandmother came from Maderia and he from Azores met in Hawaii, married and came to bay area.

[@krugmeister7301]

I was in Ponta Delgada..BEAUTIFUL City and All of the ISLAND...And Lots of Whales and Dolphins to See..

That beef...

[@patriciamasci6172]

Thx for covering my Homeland. I was born in the little Village of Furnas on the big island of Sao Miquel, migrated to Canada in 1961. Azores is the Atlantic version of Hawaii...with better Seafood. 😍

[@Erikthetravelguy]

Ha! The Atlantic version of Hawaii. Nice!

[@erichvonmolder9310]

Next year there is probably (hoping for a Vaccine) be a meditative/spiritual group trip to the Azores, how is the weather in late Spring and Summer? Is it like New York weather at the same time or more tropical? Should I bring a rain jacket?

[@mweber9050]

In the summer, humid and yes bring very light raincoat.

[@krugmeister7301]

I was in the AZORES in 1980...Just after the Terrible Earthquake that happened in TERCIERA..

Thanks Carlos! It’s such a beautiful place!

[@abdullahhakan1]

The Azores Islands belong to Portugal, it's population is 280.000 citizens who are portugese, speak portugese. Islands comprise of 9 islands. 1,5 million Portugese descendant Americans live in the island Hawai. California is the other place where portugese have settled uptil now. Portgugese people only prefer to settle in and become citizens of green pastured , full of forests places on earth, otherwise portugese leave arid places to spain. Portugese citizens are comprised of morrocans who are catholics, armenians, jewish people coming from Turkey and Ottoman Empire. In Brazil, Middle Eastern, Germanic, French, Italian originated Brazilians have been living and some of them have been mingled with Amazon indian women and they can very easily get residency from Portugal whenever they find job applied from Brasil as Brasilian. Faro, VilaMoura, Albufeira, Lagos are very enticing places to live and purchase villas, apartments. Beaches on those southern Portugal places look like South Carolina, Georgian seashores on the Atlantic Ocean. Instagram is hakanozcanankara

*FUN FACTS* the azores islands stolen by portugal from morocco in the same way portugal stole the Islas Salvages from Spain in the 1930's.

[@josephrego2527]

?????

[@shnarfy]

Ahh.... no not stolen from Morocco not sure where you read that. You might wanna do a little more homework.

[@josephrego2527]

The Azores were claimed by the Portuguese Crown in 1427. Settlement of the islands was initiated by the Portuguese in 1433. Throughout the 1400"s settlement continued with settlers arriving from various parts of Europe including France and Belgium. The islands were uninhabited when discovered. They were never under the possession of Morocco.
