What a beautiful world
The Azores – a little wonderful part of heaven on Earth…so peaceful and so beautiful it's impossible to find words.
You think you'll just visit one island but, you'll keep coming back again and again.
And, then there's the whales, the dolphins, the people…all of it, breath taking and, it can very easy become a permanent home away from home ..
Love to these islands and all their wonderful.people from I who's next visit will be Flores ❤❤❤
❤ the episode – lovely comments from both , the people who live here their conversations & tremendous spirit to live & live their home
Fabulous commentary and film making 😊
Would have been a bit more interesting if we could have met some of the other inhabitants of the islands. Are there any women and children living there – is there a hospital, shops, a school and other facilities?
In my dreams list. Great photography and epic narrative, I like so much the point of view of the three men, the sailor, the glider and the hiker; they love and have absolute passion for their islands. Thanks for sharing.
