A quick update on the train strike in Portugal with suggestions on other transit options. Links to sites with information on the strike and also Covid testing flight resources for information (don't get a fine or be sent back home without the right information).

A few clips of beaches and beach cafes as well as the Vila Real de Santo Antonio Birthday/Anniversary celebration in the East Algarve of Portugal.

A special preview of my next video *should drop this week! Sandra Penny McCallum shares her story and book of poetry about the Algarve. Her poetry set to video as well as her story and inspiration in the Algarve.

With apps you may need for trains (high-speed train Alpha Pendular), communication, travel, and more. I give an ideal itinerary for scouting out where to live or visit to maximize your time and money hitting Lisbon, Porto, and the Algarve.

A good overview covering city pairs and how to save money by combining flights, trains, and rental cars. Porto and Faro are fabulous city pairs.

Make sure to get a rental car with a toll pass included with auto-billing (and free access to Spain if you’ll be near the border). Don’t get the rental cars that charge exorbitant fees for these standard items. Check the fine print of the rental car before you book.

Apps: Skyscanner, MyCP, WhatsApp, Rome2Rio (forgot to mention that one), Rentalcars.com, Uber (or your favorite taxio etc), your airline app, hotels.com, Pestana, and Waze works great here!
