I have visited several countries, and I can assure you that Portuguese people are the most hospitable, pleasant, and inviting people I have ever met. utmost admiration for this nation and its lovely, loving locations.

[@miked2075]

My experience has been completely opposite. Which towns did you visit?

[@frenchfryequeen]

Austrians are as well! Super nice!!

[@miked2075]

@@KJ-ss3jr Algarve,(albufeira, Lagos) Lisbon, Porto, nazare, ericeira, Chaves. I never went back. Not my favorite vacation. I’m always taken back when I hear about the warmth of the people. In my experience they were a little stand offish and rough around the edge. My wife is from Portugal, so I always thought it might be because I was a foreigner who married a local girl. But I went once and never went back.

"Porto is not a place, it is a feeling", those were the words that Agustina Bessa Luís said about Porto. Agustina was a famous Portuguese writer who would turn 100 years old today. Thanks for your video, you did a great job showing that special "feeling".
