Azores House Tour & Reno update – Pico Island – Portugal – Ep 94

Hi Guys!

A day in our simple island life. Come along with us on an updated house tour of the property we bought in the Azores a year ago.

The property is located on Pico Island, on the coastal vineyard village of Sao Mateus. We will show around our land, rustic and lava stone house.

We also give you an update on our extremely slow renovations, give you and idea on the progress. During this trip to the house we also do a bit of gardening and have lunch.

We hope you enjoy spending some quality simple island life with us.
Love having you with us on our journey.

Please feel free to like, comment and subscribe
Carlos and Laura

  1. Hello it’s us again ❤️ do you have any advice on dual citizenship my husband was born on the islands but has US citizenship we’re moving to the islands in August any advance for his first step once we get there

  2. Hi . Im a new subscriber. Your videos are amazing, it makes me want to go back. I've been to Pico but am from Terceira. Can't wait for more videos to come out. Take care!

  3. Wow what a treat to find this video today!! That view is amazing!! I can't quite see is that Sao Jorge in the distance? Renos are never fun lol but wow that view makes it all worth it!! Best of luck we look forward to watching the progress. We really enjoyed our time there on Pico and Faial and Sao Miguel our plans are to return in 2023 and hopefully do a few of the other islands! Safe travels!…Viv

  4. Anytime house projects are starting to get to you, be it supply issues, the work not being up to your standards, or whatever, just think you sold it to me and i have finished it, moved in and am taking in that view – never loose sight of the end result in the moment – what a fabulous location. . . :>/

  5. Do you have a video on what the monthly expense is to live there? Utility costs, what's the best cell phone service, high speed internet provider? Also, moving from say America to the azores, do you have to give up your cars, electronics stateside. . .or are they safely compatible with the power outlets there, and vehicles compatible with the gas, oil changes, parts replacement there? Thanks.

  6. Hi Carlos. Just heard you moved to Portugal. Good for you!! Hope your both loving it. I need advise. I’m flying into faro for a week in august. And we want to stay in a nice beach town. With nice braces , night life and dining. We are looking at the Lagos area. But I was told to stay in Praia da rocha What are your thoughts?

  7. Hi guys loving the update on the house. Progress is always very slow there. Getting any type of construction done on the islands is pathetic. Took years to build my mother inlaws house on Soa Miguel. Probably best to just laminate drywall over all the interior walls instead of trying to parge smooth.

  8. I just purchased a home in Finais de ajuda S.Miguel, home built in 1937, currently undertaking a full reno. Will reno the old FORNO and use it as the heat source for winter season……

  9. Wow, looks like quite a project. Seems like the most important ingredient in doing this is patience! I’m sure it will be beautiful when it’s done. What a great location!

  10. I'm excited to see how your mighty fortress in the Atlantic develops. Hot tub is a nice idea. Can imagine conquering Pico then coming down to try wine with an ocean view. What's not to love?

  11. Carlos all. Bad weeds. Stop ✋ andar 🚶🏻 🚶🏻‍♂️ 🚶‍♀️ e cultiva o teu quintal , o Eu gost9 desses malmequeres. Não dá aqui no Canadá. Carlos e Laura arranca as ervas daninhas. Antes da flor 🌹 para não deixar sementes. Para não vir as ervas. E aí tem um pr9bekema deitao os fios por fora. Vaiem ver a Teresa activa o marido deitou drywall. Nas paredes. E deitou os fios dentro ,e deitou por fora da casa shoroit a insuflação dis aviões branca. Para insular a casa 🏡 🏠 e faser plaster. Por fora vais ver Teresa activa. Laura para mim e preciso cozinha grande. Sala etc tenho aqui family room for wath ,,sala de jantar ,sala. Se era hoje não tinha comprado. Laura. Faz forno na cozinha para aquecer a casa 🏠 e cozer pão 🍞 e assar carne 🥩 peixe 🐟 Laura faz um desenho como arquitecto como faser o quintal. Faz uma quintazjnha com arvures de fruto 🍈 bananas manas ,laranjeiras macieiras coisas pada voço uso , eu julgava iam viver de vez para aí. Porque não. Não tem filhos andar cá e la. For wath cultivem o seu quintal ,e deixem de ilusões. A vida e curta. Aqui no Canadá. Está sac. Os belos da casa passou dec-15:000 dolas. A pençâo -12:000 aí e melhora. Carlos Pecem bem.

  12. Hello guys, incredible views from your country house, a lot of work has been done to the house, I am sure that once it is finished it will be spectacular, I really like the idea of ​​the Jacuzzi outside with those beautiful views … they invite me hehehe a big hug from Venezuela

  13. Don't want scare you guy's but as you have already discovered they don't want to work you have been there about a year and that is all they have done I'm glad that i do my own work when i'm there i don't want to be a 100 years old when the decide to get the place done.On briter note i will be their soon to enjoy the weather have they changed the requirements to come to islands.

  14. Looks great guys. I know it's slow and can be frustrating but it will be worth it in the end. Thanks for the tour. The chicken looks great btw. Take care and have a great day!!

  15. … such a beautiful view ., fantastic idea putting in a hot tub 👌🏼… and yes Pico , Portugal in general renovations is a very very slow process … we are just as over excited as you both are to see it all come together and get done ., hugs to you both Carlos and Laura xo

  16. Hey guys, thanks for showing the house Reno’s, it’s coming along,and it’s going to look great once it’s finished. Construction can be long but it will surely be worth it. Enjoy your time in Pico and thanks again for another great video ✌️😍
