Hey Joel, great video! Around what time of the year did you visit Madeira? I'm asking because of the many clouds I noticed in your footage... I went to the Azores last year and although it had the most magnificent nature I've ever seen, the rainy weather was sometimes a real dealbreaker so I'd really prefer some sun during my trip to Madeira in September 🙂

I live in madeira, my whole life.. and one place even the locals are not very aware (at least most people) and its quite unique and i loved it.. is "Caminho dos pés descalços".. its like a small trail wich you leave your shoes on the beginning and go barefoot the whole way, and theres ike different terrains where you walk, like some its rocks, other sand, water etc.. but its not difficult and you can bring children, not dangerous.. its mostly fun.. and you can choose to do the terrains or you can skip the hardest ones if you want...definetly recommend.. another place you forgot to mention its the "zoo" in Prazeres.. ithas few animals but fun place to go, theres turtles, lamas, even a donkey that screams very loud... All inall i ove living here, people are nice... forgot to mention, but the trail i mentioned its free, but the zoo you pay a simbolic ammount, last time i checked it was 1€...

I first came to Madeira in 1968 on a TAP flight from the Azores when I was stationed there and the runway length was very small. Nearly everything was concentrated in Funchal. Then about 2010 my wife and I came back again via the Azores and marveled at how transformed with EU loans the island had become. Today with huge numbers coming from EU it may be a bit less so, but still a delightful safe place to travel to.

Ive been there twice,and what is more mind boggling to me,is how "man" were able to build towns,bridges,tunnels,etc in such a hostile geography,is a real testemony to human endevour and determination. But in the end the price of that massive "project" since the 15 th Century paid off,big time. Is a Magical place that deserves a visit before "you" gone,for sure. Ive been there twice,and i can say that is one of the most beautiful places on earth. And ive been already in many countries in 4 continents. PS: That Forest is called the "Laurissilva Forest" and is World Heritage,is abaut 20 million years old,and looks like you are in another world,Magical place.

Was freezing cold, because we went walking at the only rainy day, but it was still a supercool trail. People say it is a difficult trail, but as an dutchie with some hiking experience, I found it easy, even when wet.
