Wow, I had no idea about Madeira. I was looking at Porto, the Silver Coast and the Algarve, but what an excellent option!! 😎
Yes. You articulated perfectly so many of the reasons why my wife and I think it will be perfect for us, at least for part of the year. That said, I think you might want to go into the topographical challenges of Madeira and how important it is to be in the right place – particularly when you have a wife (like mine) who has difficulty walking. I found that particularly true during my March scouting trip.
I’m gonna track you down until you know how
To pronounce Madeira correctly. It’s just one word
I arrived on Thursday!!! Getting settled, can’t wait to explore more.
Hello again! You guys are making it really difficult for me to keep working lol. Have mercy–I still got 6 more years to qualify for retirement. Based on everything I've learned from you and others, Madeira checks ALL the boxes for the perfect place to live.
Awesome video with great content thanks guys!
We will be there May 9th-16th to check it out. Can't wait!! Just need to convince my wife that Madeira is the place!
Another great video!
If you answered these in a previous one, I apologize, but here goes.
How many scouting trips did you make to Madeira, and for how long? What tipped the scales in favor of Madeira over the Algarve? Thanks!
You perfectly described why Madeira is such a great place to retire; climate , cost of living, nature and low crime and a base to travel to Europe. Great video!
👍❤️
Another great video! You’re really helping us out with our decision to retire there. Doing a scouting trip in May and hoping to retire there within a year or so.
Can I have your email or other contacts
I have never thought about Madeira for retirement until I found your channel. The island looks very beautiful and appealing to live there. We have nonstop flights to the Azores and Lisbon from Boston. Madeira is also very close to Morocco and Morocco close to Spain. Under the D7 I believe you must remain within the Schengen to qualify for permanent residency/citizenship in Portugal?
Residents of Madeira receive a refund for travelling to Lisbon? Nice bonus!
