Portugal has been on every “top travel destination” blog for years. Over a 2-week road trip we explored the beautiful castles, incredible history, and rugged coastline, from Lisbon to Sintra down to the world-renowned Algarve beaches and caves, and then all the way up to the rolling vineyards of the Douro Valley wine region in this fascinating slice of Europe.
Music is one of the most fundamental parts of our filmmaking process. These are the resources we use, with Artlist always being our main go-to:

WHO ARE WE, YOU ASK?
Well, thanks for asking. We are Georg, Tara, Liv and Bodhi, a German-American family living in Colorado in the United States. We’re on a quest to travel to and report back from every country on this bright blue dot we call home. The word “Fernweh” in our channel name is German and translates to “the ache for distant places”.

Just left Sintra 2 days ago. Pena Castle was mobbed with tourists. How did you film with no one there? Did you private access? Just wondering…..Great video.
Watching this video to me, felt like going to a theatre and I just watched the best trailer for an upcoming movie.
I would love for this story to continue in the way you presented this intro to Portugal. Great job selling Portugal.
Lord George, every time you post a mesmerizing travel vlog I go nuts. You gotta teach man! I am slow-moing the video in YouTube just to understand your transition, pausing to understand color grading in every scene. Your creative level is insane. Lord George please have mercy🙏

Greetings from Albania. 🇦🇱
You guys always amazed every subscriber with you're adventures and the most important is its always inspires every person who's watching every video's that you've presenting 🙏
Very nice video! It probably took you longer to edit than your entire time in the country.
9:45 Poor kid. Olives direct from the Olive tree are very very sour. 😂
1st you need to let them "bath" several days in water with high salt concentration, garlic and herbs.
Change that "bath water" several times during that period until they are ready to eat.
PS. Our Portugal is amazing, isn't it?! 😉
Magical! Your storytelling and cinematography is so inspiring to watch.
Another absolute gem. Perfetto! Grazie, from Italy
