I thought I would get tired of Portugal videos, but it hasn't happened yet. Each city has its own unique characteristics. Thanks for making these videos!
Thank you, Renae, for your lovely comment! We're really happy that you are still enjoying our Portugal videos - this country is so interesting and diverse, yet the history, places, food and culture are still unknown to most people! We are having such a wonderful time exploring this beautiful country, and it's lovely to have you along with us! ~ Mandy
Hi Renae S. Why should you get tired of Portugal videos ????
@@gloriapires8889 Maybe because we have made over 80 Portugal videos so far... and have many more to come! Our Portugal playlist continues to grow! ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers 6 pounds and 30 cent is not a realistic price at UK. And €7.50 is not every where in Portugal. Those prices cannot be generalized. Anyway, thanks for showing Peniche.
Hello Joao. Thank you for taking the time to comment. We are always on the hunt for the best bargains, as have a budget of around US$25 each per day, which makes our channel name perfectly apt! We're heading to Porto tomorrow, where we had our best ever value menu do dia... €5 for 3 courses plus wine and cafe at Matosinhos! There are so many reasons why we love Portugal, and the excellent value menus are near the top of the list! ~ Mandy 😀😁
I love how you always report on the toilets! 😂
I’m the same and am quite impressed with the public conveniences in Portugal!
Thanks, Luise! I've always kept an eye out for free public toilets, so it seemed a natural step to show them in our videos 😃 Portugal is pretty good, but we've been caught out a few times in more touristy spots, Sitio being the most recent place. It sharpens the senses when busting for the loo 😃🤣 ~ Mandy
The blue skies and sun in Portugal are making me a little jealous as I sit watching your video in a cold and very wet Yorkshire!
Oh, Andrew... I hate to tell you this but we're currently in Cascais doing Workaway, and it's the most beautiful day! Bright blue skies and sunny! I'll put a photo on Facebook for you to get a vicarious boost of Vitamin D! ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers I did some volunteer conservation work in Australia when I was travelling there in 2008, but I’ve never done Workaway - I’ll have to look into it. Hope you are both enjoying yourselves 😀
@@FrugalMrB We're having a great time, and are thoroughly enjoying our Workaway experience... so much so that there'll be a video coming soon! Check out the Workaway website... there are hundreds of different options in Portugal alone! ~ Mandy

Hello,
I'm from Peniche (Living in France now).
Very very nice video, thanks a lot!
Glad that you like it!
Best
Hi Christophe. Thank you. We really like Peniche and keep going back because we are house sitting nearby in Praia D'el Rey. We are happy that you enjoyed the video. Cheers! 😊👍
Thank you for your amazing video about Peniche: I have been in the fortress in a trip field with students some years ago and they have loved it. It was really a nice experience and you made me remember it .
This fortress was used as political prision during the dictatorship (1932-1974) and many political prisioners were arrested there for long time.
Cheers
Hello Luis, it's always lovely to hear from you! It's great that you took a class to the fortress on a field trip... the museum covers such an important, if sad, period of Portuguese history. Peniche was so interesting to visit, and we're looking forward to returning someday! ~ Mandy
I was in Peniche in oct 2019. Wonderful town .Nice people good surf. Cant wait to go back.
It's great to hear that you enjoyed Peniche, Dennis. Did you surf at the beaches to the north or at Supertubes? ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers Yes I surfed the north. Prai do cova Alfarrorba. Rented from Special surf 78 and stayed at the Star Inn. The hotel was right across the street and they had a lovely snack bar. Every one was sooo nice, we will be going back someday.
@@dennisbrooks6988 That sounds perfect! I hope you make it back to Peniche soon! ~ Mandy
That Café do Mercado in Peniche is good tip. It is now my todo list. Thanks!
Yes, it was a great find... so much so that we went there twice! If you hear of any other places in Peniche with a similar excellent value lunch menu, please let us know! ~ Mandy 😀😁
That was a surprise about the Mini Preço being shut for lunch.
We've come across lunch time closings in a few places but this was the first time I'd remembered to film it. The larger supermarkets like Pingo Doce and Lidl stayes open as must have enough staff to cover lunch breaks 😃 ~ Mandy
I live in Peniche and i think it's awesome very tourists coming here every year
That's so cool! Are there any other great things you would recommend in Peniche? We will be back there in February to housesit again, so would love some local knowledge! 😁😃 ~Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers the restaurants are good , the Beach , sportagua is good too it's a water park and they are building a burguer king near the beach ,you should try the Baleal beach too and the Berlengas (the Island nearby Peniche)
This is a small city so we don't have so many things like shopping mall or something but it's good
@@imbot_th6220 Thank you for sharing this information. We made a video on Baleal as had a lovely time on the beach and found a great menu do dia! We look forward to returning to this area of the Silver Coast in February! 😃😁 ~ Mandy
Been enjoying your videos! Immersing in the local communities, and not the show-off tourist spots.
Thanks, Michael. We like to travel slowly and explore all aspects of the places we visit. Reality, not glamour with us all the way. 👍 ~ Lee
another great town in Portugal - can't wait to get back and go to the beach.
We loved Peniche. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did. 😊
192☘👍🏻great that I have found your channel, so clear and distinctly explanation. Greetings from Kraków 🇵🇱Poland
I am going to follow you
@@TomGuideKrakowPoland That's very kind, thank you! We spent an amazing 4 months in Krakow during the lockdown in March 2020. Krakow is one of our favourite cities! ~ Mandy
I enjoyed the museum tour Resistance and Freedom and the beautiful poem at 9:30. Free thinking still seems to be endangered in today’s times considering censorships and cancel culture.
It was such an eye opening display and there were some very thought provoking poems and images. It's disturbing how comparable life under a dictatorship can be to current times. Freedom is something precious we should never give up on.
I was born in front of the fortress, I loved playing on the rocks, beautiful times. The vegetable shop always smelling of the aromas of the soup with fragrant vegetables listening to the sound of the sea hitting the rocks. I love this place that brings me beautiful and unique memories, if I could go back in time I wouldn't hesitate a minute
Your memories of Peniche sound wonderful. ❤️. I hope this video helped to bring back some of those happy times for you. It really is lovely down there on the rocks by the fortress. We understand why you would have saudades! 💕. Thanks for watching and welcome to our channel. 👍😊 ~ Lee
Enjoy all your videos - thank you!
Thank you so much, Julie VVS. It's always so lovely to hear such wonderful feedback, as it keeps us motivated! ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers I'll be in Peniche in Sept, so this was especially helpful!
@@julievvs4908 That's brilliant! We'll be back at Praia d'el Rei in the next few months, so will be going back to Peniche. I want to explore more, and go to Super Tubes beach! Have a wonderful time in September! ~ Mandy
Great video guys. I loved Peniche, we ate some tasty sardines there in a back street Cafe, much cheaper than the water side ones. Love how weather is still so mild on November. Cool market.
Thank you, Cindy. We love hearing about your experiences in Portugal as we often live vicariously through you! Peniche is such an interesting place, and I loved that market! ~ Mandy
That was a long walk! Blimey!!!!
Yes, we did that walk twice from our housesit in Praia d'el Rei, the first half being the same route as in the Baleal video. We love walkiing - it's great exercise and is when we really talk and make plans, instead of sitting in separate rooms reading/editing videos/watching Netflix! 😁😃 ~ Mandy
Wow the history and architecture there is so cool! Looks like a really great place to wander and explore! 😊
Peniche is a fascinating place to wander around! We had such a great time exploring this historic town! ~ Mandy
Another enjoyable content of you.
Thank you touring and sharing with us.
Have a great weekend ❤️
Thank you very much! We hope this finds you well and that you have a great weekend! ~ Mandy
Fantastic day. The museum was sobering and the views and lunch menus were fab. Thank you for showing us around.
Thank you for your lovely and thoughtful comment, violetgypsie. I love reading menus and really enjoy sharing them, so it's great to hear that other people like them as well. There was more to see in the museum but I wanted to present an overview. I would definitely recommend visiting the fortress, and Peniche itself, as it's a very interesting town! Thank you again for taking the time to comment! ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers The museum is definitely on my list of things to see whenever I get to Portugal, now that I know about it. And keep the menus coming!
This was a fantastic video! I love it when you show the prices and give a good 'prato do dia'. My wife and I just moved to Portugal last Monday and are still getting acclimated. I am always on the lookout for a good menu of the day. I hope you make it back to Portugal someday and continue to enjoy your adventures.
Thank you for your lovely comment, Todd, and congratulations on your move to beautiful Portugal! We're still here and are currently doing our first Workaway in Cascais ,another beautiful seaside town!
We tend not to go for just a prato do dia, preferring instead for a menu do dia or menu completo, as the savings can be amazing! Thank you again for taking the time to comment, it's always great to hear such positive feedback! ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellersI'm looking forward to any videos you produce on Cascais as I am at Baixa in Lisbon for a few months. We are planning a day trip to Cascais sometime in the near future and would appreciate any tips you can give in future content. Obrigado e boa noite!
@@tuxdude1 We'll be making at least 3 Cascais videos, but they'll be coming after an Oliviera do Hospital vlog and 3 from Alcobaça. I'll be posting a few Cascais photos and tips on our Instagram and Facebook pages, so keep an eye for them! ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers I'm looking forward to your Cascais videos. I will follow you on Instagram and Facebook. I"m very excited at this stage. it is similar to Sydney and feeling like anything is possible. I feel like we have a new lease on life.
Great video guys, wonderful exploration of this beautiful Portuguese town 😉😊 very enjoyable
Thank you, Stephen. It's always so lovely to hear from you. We had such a great time exploring Peniche, and I'm pleased you enjoyed the video! ~ Mandy
Hi Mandy & Lee. Congrats on hitting 5K subscribers :)
Now this is what I refer to as my 2nd town (Atouguia being my first). In fact, my first day in Peniche I had my first Portuguese 'meal' at the Oceano, right beside Presidente 5:34 :)
You know, I passed the fortress dozens of times but never stopped in to have a look around. I wish I had. When I was there I wasn't aware of the prison history.
I shopped at that Lidl, a lot!! I am happily surprised to know you can now get an Uber in Peniche!! That wasn't the case when I lived there. That's great news for when I move back!!
Thanks for showing a wee bit of my town :)
Hello Jen! Thank you so much for your kind comments and for always being so supportive about our Portugal videos!
I'm so pleased you enjoyed this video of your second town! We'll be going back to our wonderful housesit in PdR in February so will be going back to Peniche and that Lidl! Let me know if there's anything you'd like us to film 😃😁
I think the fortress may have been closed for repair work/renovations so it may not have been open when you were there. It's a fascinating building with so much history and those spectacular views. It will be waiting for your return!
Yes, there are 2 Uber drivers in Peniche. We couldn't get one from PdR to Peniche, but were able to get one home with all our shopping, thankfully! It definitely made food shopping so much easier for us, as we don't even have a bicycle to get around 😁😃 ~ Mandy
Beautiful
That's so lovely, Nelson! Thank you 🙏😃😁 ~ Mandy
Great content sharing my dear friend 👍🙏
That's so lovely, thank you! 😁😃 ~ Mandy
So much to see in Portugal and I am so glad to travel through your videos. The tiles are so beautiful and the fortaleza has lived through ages. Mandy and the toilets corners 😁 but it’s so important.
Thank you so much, Nadelina! Yes, there is so much to see and do Portugal, isn't this such a wonderful country! We love the tiles here, both the azulejos and also the tiles on the outside of buildings for waterproofing! Hahhha... I'm always on the lookout for free toilets, so decided to share their locations with the viewers 😃😁 Thank you for taking the time to comment, and I look forward to seeing your next Portugal video! ~ Mandy
Loving your reviews as they are giving us lots of ideas for future trips - thank you. PS Nearly 5k subscribers - fantastic
We're so pleased you enjoy our Portugal videos. There are so many amazing places to visit here, and we're sure you'll have a wonderful time! We're so excited to be approaching 5k subscribers! It's lovely to have such positive feedback and support from our viewers! ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers We shall be at our place in Lagos in late Feb - my wife still works as a school teacher so we are restricted by school holidays. It must be nice to have the freedom to spread your wings and fly? Where are you from in NZ?
@@bearders22 How lovely to have a place in Lagos - Lee so misses the Algarve! It is wonderful to have the freedom to travel and live a nomadic lifestyle, and being frugal helped us accomplish that. I am from Whangarei, and am hoping to be able to go back at the end of the year as 3 years away is really making me miss my family ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers I had to look that up! Whangarei is on North Island. We have planned a big trip to NZ over Xmas and New Year for a month. My wife’s sister lives in Christchurch and has a holiday place in Marlborough Sound. I’ve never been so looking forward to it
@@bearders22 Your trip to NZ sounds wonderful! Fingers crossed the borders will be open by then! ~ Mandy
Greetings from Canada🇨🇦 Enjoyed your video! Too bad you didn’t have a shot of the Portuguese ladies making lace. It’s mind blowing how they spin the balls around so fast, its a real art. My husband and I have a fish mounted on blue velvet we purchased there which we treasure. They were so pleasant and accommodating to us and even gave us some antique wooden spirals they use to make the lace for souvenirs. Maybe you couldn’t get in because of Covid??
Hello Dianne! Thank you so much for your lovely comment! How wonderful to hear about your experience seeing the lace making process. The school wasn't open that day but we'll be returning to Peniche in February when we go back to the Praia d'el Rei housesit. Hopefully we'll be able to see the women display their skills another time! ~ Mandy
Well done on another emosewa videao!
Thank you so much for introducing us to this emosewa new word! Oh my days, it's brilliant. Thank you also for the lovely comment... you are so kind! ~ Mandy
Nice !
Thank you. We're pleased you enjoyed the video! ~ Mandy
Hi Lee and Mandy, it is great to see Portugal. We are thinking of visiting Portugal, but neither of us like seafood. (Eric)
Hello Eric & Christian! Thank you for your lovely comment. Portugal is such a beautiful country, with amazing food and delicious pastries and wine. We're not really into seafood either but there are so many other tasty options! Check out a Francesinha for example, to see an incredible sandwich! 😃😁 ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers thanks for the feedback, Mandy! We’re going to watch your francesinha video. Did you move there or just spending a long time there? - Christian
How did we miss this little gem! The is fantastic and reminds us of Sagras a bit. A beautiful day we'll spent! Thank you for sharing this with us, a definite must see we we come back to Portugal 💞 Debbie and Stijn
Thank you, Debbie and Stijn! There are so many great places to visit in Portugal - we keep coming across new favourites all the time! Peniche is a lovely little town and we enjoyed our time there! ~ Mandy
Hi Debbie and Stijn, hope you are both well. Funny you should mention Sagres... only because I lived in the Peniche area, and loved it... and visited Sagres a few times, and loved it!! This part of the Silver Coast is special, and so is the Costa Vicentina (Sagres) and West Alentejo. :)
@@JenSheaWe haven't been to Sagres yet, which seems a major oversight as I do like their beer! Fingers crossed we get a housesit or WorkAway in that region one day! 😃😁 ~ Mandy
Thanks for the Peniche video! We actually missed some of those places when we visited. We will go back for sure.
Question: Can you please post your "buy us a coffee" link?
Hello Jay! Thank you for your lovely comment, and it's great to hear that this video showed you new places in Peniche!
We decided to put our Buy Me a Coffee link in the video description section as we didn't want to make a big thing about it. Thank you for asking about the link. We've received coffees from some very generous people already, and will make sure we have special cafe and restaurant experiences that we would normally never consider! We're currently doing Workaway in Cascais and there are some very nice places to try here! 😁😃 ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers Enjoy Cascais! What a nice place! We stayed there in 2019 for a few days...kind of for the tycoon crowd ;-) but still beautiful for all to see.
@@antifiat It's beautiful, indeed... lovely beaches and amazing buildings! ~ Mandy
@@antifiat Thank you so much for your incredibly generous gift of 20 coffees! Lee and I feel humbled by your kindness and generosity! We will find somewhere nice in Cascais to have a lovely tycoon experience! Thank you! 🙏😃❤ ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers My pleasure! Thanks again for your vids!
Hi, did you find out why some restaurants closed for the whole month of November?
No, we're not sure why so many restaurants were closed for holidays at that time, but I'm guessing November is the low season before the Christmas tourist season. Thank you for your comment, and hopefully a local will be able to confirm my guess 😁😃 ~ Mandy
Been following a while , thank you for your vids ! .... just a thought i would like to know the dates filming started and ended for each episode to give idea of expected weather for month x
Hello! Thanks for your lovely comment and great suggestion! We'll start putting that information in the pinned comment for each video... this video was made in November as I'm not as productive/focused as Lee, who made all the Nazaré videos! 😃😁 ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers ahh thanks for extra speedy response .... my mrs wants to know if you plan or have already been ti Latvia .. .. shes loves your episodes also xxx once again thanks for your content
@@LoudGroovy We love reading comments from our viewers and try to answer them as soon as possible. Please thank your mrs for her question, and let her know that we made 5 videos during our 2020 visit to Latvia. This is the link to our Latvia playlist:

We'd planned to stay longer but something came up in the UK so we had to race back in September 2020. We loved the 3 Baltic states and would love to return! Thank you for your lovely comments and support! ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers ahh bless , we still tucked up in bed ! on a chilly sunday morning in Coventry ...... in about 5 mins i will be streaming back to back ure Latvian adventures ! thanks for ure help on this ttfn
@@LoudGroovy We're the same. I try to answer all comments before getting up, especially on a slightly chilly morning here in Cascais as it's a great excuse to stay in bed! 😃 ~ Mandy
I would also appreciate your review at living in Praia del Ray , such as is it too remote, do most people who own homes leave for the winter? I am a golfer did you see people playing at this time of the year? Do the people that you house sitting for live there permanently and what’s the weather like ? Thank you
Hello Anita. PdR isn't too remote if you have a car. There were still a lot of people living there in November. Yes, the owners of the housesit live there permanently. The weather is mixed as is on the Silver Coast. We'll be returning in February so will make another video of Praia d'el Rei. ~ Mandy
Good content . I am Corious, what is your favorite town in Portugal
Hello Anita. We have different favourites... mine is Setúbal and Lee's is Coimbra! ~ Mandy
What was your walking route like from PDR to Peniche. I just bought a home in PDR, and I want to try the walk to Peniche, but I'm wondering if it's safe for a solo woman. 🤔 It looks like several dirt roads.
We show part of the route in our Baleal video, as that's the first half of the walk to Peniche. Yes, it's along a dirt road, and there are mainly fields along the way, but there are a few houses. I would walk it on my own, but it's up to the individual if they feel comfortable. Portugal is one of the safest of the 100 countries I have been to, but nothing is 100% safe. ~ Mandy
Thank you for sharing and for your support. Full support from the beautiful Algarve. Have you seen my latest work?
Thank you so much for your lovely comment and support! Love your work! 😁😃 ~ Mandy
Are there any hiking trails in Peniche or nearby?
Yes there some nice walks all around the coastline in Peniche and out along the dunes to Baleal.
@@FrugalTravellers Can we do camping there?
@@adamputh1090 We saw a campground between Baleal and Peniche but don't have any information about it. ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers Aight but can we just pitch our tent wherever we find a good view from or is it illegal🤔
@@adamputh1090 We haven't rough camped in Portugal, but have heard that it is illegal.
