Yes it is a really nice market at Nazaré. Very typical of Portugal. Plenty of good, fresh produce available at affordable prices. The bread and all the pastries available are excellent too. Here the ladies wear traditional clothing also which is so pretty and colourful. A great place to visit. 😁👍 ~ Lee
You are most welcome. Nazaré is really a special place and one of my favourites in Portugal, either in summer or winter. The cheese is delicious, too. 😋
Hello from Alvor Portugal, you two are my kind of travelers. No need to spend so much to have a great time exploring. Great video! Thanks for sharing. Peace ✌ and love 💘
Hahhha, Chris, ya dag 🤣 Great to see you on here... I didn't realise you had a YT channel! Yes, those skirts were rather fetching, especially with the long socks 😃😁 ~ Mandy
Great video guys, so glad you liked Nazare. I can't believe I didn't know about that big market hall. Well good to have something new to see next visit. Looking forward to all your adventures in 2022.
Thank you so much, Cindy. That market was a great find. You could spend hours in there, either shopping or just eating and enjoying the vibe. All the best for 2022. 👍😊
So glad you liked this Nazaré video Sandra. That market is just the best and it's always good to know where the toilets are! 😊. Nazaré gets a big 👍 from us. 😁
That was such a fun video, there were so many cute gems. Nazare looks lovely. Mandy, we love how your voice just lights up when you were filming the cakes (I, Pauli, have a massive sweet tooth) 🍰. Lee, that was real funny when the ladies in traditional garb were right behind you as you talked about them 😄
Thank you, PAULS 😁 Yes, just like Pauli, I have such a sweet tooth... actually I live to travel, travel to eat, and love most food, so I do tend to get quite enthusiastic 😃 Nazaré is wonderful, we're back housesitting there at the moment, and it's always so lovely to see the women proudly wearing their traditional dress, all day, every day. Thank you so much for your comment... we always love hearing from you guys! ~ Mandy
Hey guys, lovely exploration of Nazaré. The market looked pretty cool and very reasonable in price too 😉😊 loved the look of lunch, especially that chocolate cake 😉
Hi Mates! In Alcobaça you must see the Surrender of the Guard to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in the Monastery of Batalha, got to love that acustic of that arquitecture...it´s a fenomenal Monastery!!! You 2 will be amazed!!! CHEERS MATE!!!
Gidday 😁 Thank you so much for the great recommendation! Unfortunately we can't leave the animals for long at this housesit, so will save Batalha for another time. We're going to Cascais next week for 18 days, so were wondering if you had any recommendations for there? Thank you for always sharing such great information! ~ Mandy
Thank you so much, Jen! Feliz Ano Novo to you too! It's always so wonderful to hear from you, and we really appreciate your kind comments. Wishing you all the best for 2022 😃😁 ~ Mandy & Lee
Jen, I've seen you commenting in many videos about folks travelling Portugual or living in Portugal / off grid. It seems you live there urself, don't you? I've seen you so often around that I'm kinda intrigued by you, I mean your story! Would you care to tell more about yourself? (to kill my curiosity) It seems u're an expat living in Portugal around the Lisbon area, are you Irish who moved there?
Nazaré is beautiful, and we're really pleased you enjoyed this video. We're actually back here housesitting and can't believe the difference between winter and summer... it's so busy now! Personally, I prefer it in February but at least we'll be able to go for a swim at Praia da Nazaré now 😀 I checked and Maçã Reineta is Russet Apple in English. Thank you for the correction - it's always great to get local advice! ~ Mandy 😀😁
Oh wow 😲 We are back there right now. The buses just stop on the street for now but I think they are planning on building a new terminal. This building is a great size for the market. 👍 ~ Lee
Another awesome and educational video. WOW! some Nazare women still wear traditional clothing and that’s great. The market has a lot nice fresh fruits, cheese, olives, meat etc.. Thank you for sharing your experience, a place to stay, food and cost. They are very helpful. I can’t wait for more videos! I shared your channel on my social media.
Thank you so much, Sue. It means a lot to us that you shared our video and we really appreciate it. We want to help people to be able to travel and show that it needn't cost a fortune to do it. We're glad you enjoy our videos and hope to improve and bring many, many more. 🙏😊👍
25€ is really cheap ! I love these colored boats, it would have been great to sea the fishermen coming back from the sea. It’s enjoyable to see women wearing the traditional costume. What I like about Portuguese markets is that products are mainly local. Pão com choriço is so good 😊. Have a wonderful 2022.
Thanks Nadelina. We found a great value place at that hostel. Also very friendly and welcoming. Nazare is lovely with it's traditional style boats and the costumes the women wear. We loved it there and so recommend it. Wishing you a happy 2022.
Super beau coin, j’adore Nazaré mais il n’y a rien en agence de voyage pour cette ville😰je préfère les agences car tu ne t’occupes de rien🙏j’espère trouver car ce lieu m’attire vraiment💁💥merci pour la vidéo, c’est👍🏿
Nous sommes heureux que vous ayez apprécié la vidéo. Nazaré est vraiment une belle ville. Je ne connais pas d'agences là-bas mais c'est facile de réserver un logement sur booking.com. Nous y reviendrons en août ! 😍 ~ Lee
I've been looking for you for the last 5 years :) so much knowledge and content on frugal travel. I also started backpacking in the late 90's on a shoestring but had to interrupt when I become a mum. Soon my youngest is leaving the nest and I'm saving hard to resume backpacking. I look up to you guys and thank you so much for your work putting all this content. I will be following you eagerly. I'm also Portuguese, so if you need help while you are there, feel free.
Hello Maria. Thank you for your kind words. It's always nice for us to come across another old school backpacker. A lot has changed with regards to travelling since the internet came along but the same shoestring travel tactics still apply. I'm sure you'll be fine getting on the road again. We're glad to have you along watching our journey and we wish you all the best. We love your country and have really enjoyed exploring it in depth. 😍🇵🇹😁
Great video about Nazaré village: it made me remember my time there some years ago (Even, my appartment had the same nice view over the beach such as your hostel). There were a huge celebrarion in New Year with lots and lots of people and fire places over the beach that I attended and it was amazing. Now, due to Covid restrictions they were cancelled. I wish you Happy New Year with lots of frugal travels around the world.
Thank you so much, Luís. It must have been a great place to live and I bet the beach parties were epic. We were in Alcobaça for New Year which is also a beautiful place. Thanks for your support and we wish you a fantastic 2022. 👍🎉 Lee and Mandy. 😁
Don’t you just love those market scenes? We visited ones in Setubal, Olhao and Tavira-and they were all fun! It’s great to see them again with your videos. BTW-I’m glad I had dinner before watching this video! 😅 Many thanks for those menu shots. I’m obviously having translation issues as I’m not clear as to the difference between ‘toast’ vs ‘dry toast,’ or ‘hot dog’ vs ‘American hot dog’ (as seen on a Google foto). I guess I have to go back to figure out those details! 😄 Obrigado.
Thanks. The markets are always so much fun. They are really big community meeting places with so much life going on. Always something interesting to see. Menus can be rather confusing at times especially as we've noticed meal names can change depending on the region you are in. Studying them is a great way to improve Portuguese. 👍
Love the market. Thanks for showing that. We will visit there on our next trip. We drove to Peniche, Cabo Carvoeiro Light house today. What a view! Are you guys staying in Portugal very much longer? If not, where are you headed?
Thank you Jay. We're in the process of putting a Peniche vídeo together. It's lovely there. We'll be in Portugal until at least the start of summer, house sitting around and then maybe a little more of Europe, travel restrictions allowing. 🤞👍
Thank you for another nice video. I will be there this summer. I'm thinking of using Nazare as a base for touring the centro region. What do you think? Any better alternatives?? Also, very nice job with your Portuguese. Parabéns amigo.
Obrigado Martin. Nazare is a great town to stay for sure, although it is a little out on a limb public transport wise. So if you have your own vehicle then it would be a good base to explore the centro region. If you are relying on public transport then maybe Caldas, Leiria or even Coimbra would be better bases because they have good transport links. Boa sorte e boas viagens. 😊
Yes! We were so lucky to see the biggest waves of the season. I've attached the video of our big wave experience, and we hope you enjoy it! 😁😃 ~ Mandy ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-x9NENINTvJc.html
The mad 1/2 kiwi looking fruit is Dutch medler it has a stunning shape apple or quince like flower the fruit is left to go soft picked at start of winter and cooked with sugar to make like the more common quince leather for pate / cheese boards, our two grew two metres in 10 years under Chinese elms in north Wagga Wagga Australia 👍❤️❤️❤️🙏
That's so interesting, Trevor. I didn't realise that medlars grew in Australia! I've just found this information on Wikipedia... "In the southwest of England it historically had a number of vulgar nicknames, such as open-arse and monkey's bottom, due to the appearance of its large calyx". I now just need to find out what a calyx is 😁🤣 Thank you for sharing this info, and I hope all is well down under! ~ Mandy
@@trevorwindle8980 Oh, we so miss Aussie slang! I'm hoping we can get back to Perth at the end of the year to catch up with family... and enjoy those amazing Aussie beaches! ~ Mandy
Happy Fluffy New Year, guys! Feliz Ano Novo! So cool exploring Portugal with you. According to those DNA tests, I’m at least half Portuguese. We were both adopted so I don’t know about my biological parents, but Eric does. He’s biologically Polish. We want to visit Portugal. - Christian
Happy New Year to you both. 😁. Hope you do get to visit Portugal because we are sure you won't be disappointed. We spent over 4 months in Poland at the beginning of the pandemic, made a load of videos and absolutely loved it there. Another wonderful country to explore. 😊
@@FrugalTravellers thank you! Are you guys still in Portugal? Poland is also in our plans. We stopped in Warsaw to connect flights, but haven't spent more than 24 hours there yet. So many interesting countries to visit.
Thanks for that, Carlos. We'd been told that they wore 7 petticoats but as we didn't verify it ourselves, we didn't want to mention it! Do you know the story behind the 7 petticoats? ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers one for each day of the week or the colours of the rainbow...while waiting for fisherman, to comeback with their catch ,on a cold beach so they could cover heads,backs and legs.
