Good evening everyone. I have a highlight saved with the location tagged for the places saved on my Instagram highlights. instagram.com/daintydressdiaries/ come say hi x
Hey there! I'm so excited to see that one of my favourite RUclipsrs visited my home country! I hope you had an amazing time exploring all the beautiful sights, trying some delicious food, and soaking up the warm Portuguese culture. As someone who grew up there, it's always special to see others appreciate the beauty of my country. Lots of love, Ana.
Oh wow, what a stunning home you have, everyone was so friendly and I loved all the nature and calm pace x
Yes, how lovely for you!
I love how you are not afraid to travel solo. I’ve been wanting to travel solo to Ireland and Scotland but just haven’t been brave enough.
I've been trying to build up the courage but never get past watching others on you tube for inspiration. One day we may surprise ourselves...for now Catherine can take the lead for me
Thank you Catherine for taking us along on this beautiful trip. I really really loved it❤
Love sharing the adventures 😍
Hi Catherine! As someone else commented, those pink flowers are Bougainvillea. So pretty - especially the deep pink or purple colored ones. They even come in orange! I wonder if they could be grown in Ireland? Thanks for another fun ramble! Johanna
I do believe they could!
Wow Catherine what a lovely piece of paradise you looked liked you enjoyed your visit thank you for bringing us along it was beautiful 🤩
Dear Catherine, thank you for the flash back, I have bin there in 1985, but it’s still as beautiful, and the bougainville is to die for 🥰
Madeira is such a pretty place to visit, I called in there many years ago on a cruise ship. We didn't have much time to explore apart from wandering around Funchal. I remember the embroidery and Madeira wine being a feature of our visit.
You are such a charmer, the way you take us along to such lovely areas. I enjoy walks and gardens and beautiful ocean vistas. Thank you!
The pink flowering plant on your balcony is a Bougainvillea. Lovely to look at but a bugger in the garden as they grow feral and have wicked thorns. There are other smaller versions available.
Almost all of my friends speak Portuguese and are from Portugal. The Azores and the Continent. I live in an area with a very high concentration of Portuguese Americans. It was fun to see some of the places I have heard about. I am supposed to go with my bestie in the next year or so as her mother still lives there. She is from the continent. I am definitely not fluent in Portuguese but I can speak enough to get get by and read a menu etc.. They make the most amazing food! I love how you have traveled the world solo. It’s inspiring. Once I am done paying for my son’s college I cannot wait to do the same. In the meantime I will live through you.❤️❤️
Loved it! I'm of to Sardinia Sicily and Malta soon, travel is the best,
Fantastic video and mini vacation. You look gorgeous darling. Loved everything and especially your room with the flowers coming down. Amazing. Thank you so very much for sharing this with us.💯💯💯🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I just ❤ your trips! Let’s me see places I probably will never see! Thank you for this and both of those gardens where amazing! ❤❤❤ the waterfalls!!! Thanks again for the ❤ Ramble!
Thanks you so much for taking us along on your trip. This is a lovely place. By watching your videos, I get to see great places that I will never be able to see on person. So again thank for letting me tag along with you. Much love from Canada 🇨🇦♥️🇨🇦

A friend is visiting Spain and Portugal in May and June, then on to Ireland and Iceland. Thank you for the lovely travelogue. The flowers are lovely.
My son in law is half Madeiran and I can’t wait for my first trip to Madeira!
Bougainvilleas are very pretty. We have them growing quite well in Arizona & California.
Loved it and see you sunday 💖
Thanks for taking us with you! I didn’t even need to dust off my passport!
My in laws used to love Maderia. I still haven't gone back to flying but oh wow you have made me want to go.
Wow those gardens with the flamingos are beautiful
Ahh such a lovely vlog Catherine! Madeira looks absolutely beautiful, I’d love up visit one day! That’s the beauty of living in the U.K., we are literally a stones throw away from other parts of Europe within 4 hours or less! I never take it for granted 😊😊😊😊😊
Catherine I thoroughly enjoyed your trip to Madeira , was on my bucket list, but anxiety will not allow me to travel on my own - so everything you did, including the embroidery shop, are all the things I love and would of done had I the courage! ❤️
Thx for taking us with you looks beautiful enjoy your last day, safe travels
Those flowers draping over your balcony were breath taking. Such a beautiful place! And i have to say....the color of your eyes are gorgeous and your skin is luminescent! You are a such beautiful girl! I very much enjoy watching your videos! Much love from Arkansas, USA. ❤
Oh wow, thank you so much, so kind x
Lovely to revisit Catherine. I’ve been to Madeira twice and experienced lots that it has to offer. The toboggan ride was amazing although a little scary, it truly is something not to miss. The gardens are beautiful, lace/embroidery shops and Madeira wine tours. ❤
What a wonderful getaway destination. I loved it all! I favor the oriental style gardens. They seem to be so relaxing and bring such calming tranquility to my soul. No matter if its in person or through you on RUclips. 😂. Thanks for bringing us along & sharing Catherine. I hope you had your SPA time, makes me so envious! Your solo travels as a young, beautiful you lady radiates bravery & independence on a whole different level.
Oh wow, thank you Carolyn xxx

I’ve really enjoyed this video. I love your photography and all the things you notice. It has reminded me of the several visits to Madeira I have had. It is a very special island.
Catherine this was the most beautiful short trip for you. The ocean views spectacular, the gardens lovely.
The blue and white told wall on your walk was so interesting . The tropical garden peaceful and the sound of water restful.
You are a brave girl to ride in the cable car!
Gorgeous flowers.
Loved the painted doors . You looked so beautiful on your walks.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful island. Much love from Northern California ❤

Thank you for sharing
So lovely to see this video. It's on my hit list for a visit
Glad you enjoyed it Marie x
Love Madeira- we were lucky to spend 2 weeks there with car hire and drove and walked everywhere- beautiful island. It inspired me to have plenty of Alliums and Agapanthus in my garden that we saw in the mountains x
Yes, I noticed all the agapanthus starting to open up the mountains, I was a bit early for the alliums x
Thank you for sharing your trip! ❤Ana
I came back from Lisbon on Sunday. I'm now planning to visit Porto and Madeira as well. Madeira looks dreamy!
Aw fab, I loved Lisbon x
Eat a beautiful place!!! You look stunning as well!
Absolutely beautiful! I believe that lovely pink vine is Bougainvillea.
Hi what a beautiful place. Loved the gardens and the beautiful flowers. Loved seeing the flowers up close. Thanks for sharing your trip. The embroidery is fantastic . Keep safe
The flowers and greenery was just next level 😍😍
Such a gorgeous place! Those gardens looked so peaceful, not sure I'd be brave enough to go on those cable cars though 😄
What a lovely place😍 sometimes travelling solo is more fun😁
We call that pink flower here as BOGGABILLA Flower but some call it as BOUGAINVILLEA ☺️
Enjoy Ms. Catherine
I love your channel! Thank you for bringing joy.
