    Great video of showing how you find your magical spots! Agree wholeheartedly that even hiking popular trails like Sao Lorencao, one can find magic by starting before everyone wakes up.
    What surprises me most is that when talking to some natives, they haven't even done these popular hikes. Hiking like a "local" may not be always true. 😊

    My grandmother who was born in 1925 on the “mainland” of Portugal always said that the people from the islands are low class and poor.🤦🏻‍♀️. She always spoke her mind, sometimes a little too much!!😆. It’s not like that anymore!! If she could see it now she wouldn’t believe it.😊

    @orlandoribeiro8047 2 месяца назад +2

    Hi, I've been following your channel for a while now, when you say you're looking for places where there aren't many tourists, it's with this video that these secret places end up losing that quality, because everyone wants the best image to post on any digital platform. There will come a day when everything is uncovered and full of tourists, not that they are not welcome. But in the right amount. Best regards.

    • @joenandamalie
      @joenandamalie  2 месяца назад +2

      I honestly think most people know about these places if they wanted to, but the vast vast majority don't do it because they aren't really hikers. Then furthermore almost no one get up early on their own. Sure, Pico do Arieiro, but that's because it's become a tour bus destination. Pico Grande will never be as it's a brutal hike. This video is not about convincing everyone they should climb Pico Grande. It's about stimulating the minds of tourists to maybe try things beyond their comfort zone. Cheers

      Not easy. You need to have a car or scooter for the vast majority of hikes and levadas.

    to avoid the point of saturation keep the videos in the range between 12 and 13 minutes max.
    (professional advice)
    No matter how good the video is... Beyond this point people will start to feel saturated. that's why tiktok is so famous.
    people can't afford to invest more of their time.

    I love you guys, but the way you behaved on trail just got nothing on what you said 🙃 1. Always be aware of your limitations (props for Amalie for giving up); 2. Never leave the group especially when doing the trail for the first time; 3. Please don't start hiking at 18:27.
    The number of tourists that get lost (and rescued if lucky) in the mountains of Madeira is ridiculously increasing.

    • @joenandamalie
      @joenandamalie  2 месяца назад +2

      You must read between the lines when we do jokes. If it doesn't make sense, we are making a joke. That's the rule. The point of going for sunset at Pico Grande was also to prove that you need to use common sense. I used common sense and turned around :)
