    I've been to the Azores almost a dozen times so far (my parents were born there) it's pretty great that there's been so much Azores content lately but there's a part of me that is worried that it will become too touristy. One of the best things about those Islands is the fact that not many knew about it. Anyways, I'm just being an old man. Great job on the video.

    • @afaria6173
      @afaria6173 Před 5 lety +6

      It won't become too touristy they have a plan in place that will limit the amount of tourists the islands will accommodate they want to ensure a comfortable lifestyle for the locals and accommodate guests within reason but won't let it get overrun.

      FUN FACT:
      The Azores is the only autonomous division with three capitals. One for each branch of government: legislative (Horta/Faial), judicial (Angra, Terceira), and administrative/executive (Ponta Delgada, São Miguel).

    I’ve been enthralled with the Azores for a while now, and this is far and away the best video. I have seen pull everything together so I can show my cousin and convince her to go with me. :-)

    I lived on Terceira for 2 years and lived through the Great Azores Earthquake. I still have friends there. There are no extinct volcanos, they are only dormant.

    Great summary of your visit to the Azores, Jon, you really have an eye for beauty! I do hope you'll find the time to visit the rest of the country, ie, Madeira, and continental Portugal, at some stage. I reckon you will be amazed, particularly if going for the more off-the-beaten-track places! One thing that I noticed on the clip from your climb of Pico, is the similarity with the West of Ireland, especially with Connemara, and with some of the Hebrides, off the west of Scotland. That scree on the side of the mountain, on Pico, reminds me of what one may find on many mountain slopes near the Atlantic in both west of Scotland and Ireland, except for the type of rock. I wonder if the process for its formation is the same, that is, intense heat, followed by an intense cold which forces the water accumulating in the fissures to freeze, expand, and then crack the rocks. I'm no Geologist, though, just wondering...Have a great time on any of your future endeavors, all the best!

    FUN FACT:
    The Azores is the only autonomous division with three capitals. One for each branch of government: legislative (Horta/Faial), judicial (Angra, Terceira), and administrative/executive (Ponta Delgada, São Miguel).
