    Hi Alex, It's nice to have a market that has fresh produce in season and sells handmade products. So much easier to be environmentally friendly when you have a market to support.

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun

    Great video, Alex. Puerto Pollenca is like our second home. It really is the most perfect resort for a Mallorca holiday. We lived here for a couple of years from 2005 and have some lovely memories of the place. Also, anyone staying here should hop over to the other side of the mountains to Cala Sant Vicente to experience a different kind of Mallorca. (If you're adventurous and fairly fit you can hike across the mountains in about an hour or two). Desperate for the Mallorcan government to open up La Fortelaza which is the massive property right after the military base here in the Port. It would be a massive coup for any vlogger to get access to there. One day Alex, maybe?

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun
      @MallorcaUnderTheSun  2 года назад +2

      Thanks so much Chris - great to hear from you! The hike sounds like a great idea - might have to do that! And thanks for the tip off to about La Fortaleza..will keep my eyes peeled for that! :)

    • @JH-dj2of
      @JH-dj2of 2 года назад +2

      Thank you Chris for sharing your experience and tips. How was it living in Puerto Pollenca? What did you like about it the most? We are looking to move to Mallorca, just trying to figure out where, and Puerto Pollenca is one of our top favourites. Thank you! Judith :)

    • @chrislox1
      @chrislox1 2 года назад +3

      @@JH-dj2of Hi Judith, thanks for the message. Puerto Pollenca is a lovely place to holiday and we did enjoy living there although it was tough trying to make ends meet. In hindsight, we would probably have done things different and to be honest you would probably fare better living somewhere like Palmanova. PP is very quiet in the winter and it can feel quite isolated. Palmanova is near to Palma which has activity pretty much all year round. The thing I liked the most about PP was the accesibility to nature and some lovely walks. The road along the bay between PP and Alcudia is my favourite piece of road in the whole world - it's so stunning and never gets tiring. I love the passeo and the pine walk; there's tons of lovely bars cafés and restaurants. However, beware, go a couple of streets back and the town can look very tired, is plagued with graffitti and there's lots of 'Se Vende' signs. It does have charm though, and if you fall in love with the place like we did, you'll see past all this. Hope this helps?

    Hi Alex ,looks lovely there ,weather gorgeous compared to where I am ..North Germany about an hour south of Hamburg... I am enjoying all your videos they are always informative. Could you maybe do a short video on Language schools on Mallorca and maybe find something out about "Host families" too.That would be good for people wanting to learn Spanish and also enjoy the beautiful Island too. bye for now ,stay safe and take care in these strange covid times..
