I'm going to the Azores
#1
Not right away, but when my dad dies I'm probably selling his house and taking off to go live perhaps on Flores Island..maybe the main island...I dunno. Temperatures year around from around 50 low to 75 high..Nice, rich volcanic soils, Portuguese laws, easy immigration laws and real estate is pretty darn cheap..  There's almost nothing to not like. Even all the drug laws are decriminalized..

I'm ready to go right now, but...ain't got the money yet..  Whatever

Heck...nice little place looking toward the ocean with some land.. around $65,000 or 55k in euros.. I could hack that..maybe.. Wink

Be careful. Remember what happened to Flokie?

Not really.. I'm not up on my Flokieisms..  I could probably start the Azores Bengals fan club.. Now how exciting would that be?  Mellow

That last pic looks amazing.

If you can financially and psychologically afford to live in a place like that, God bless!

How are you going to support yourself, once you're there? You seem a bit old to take up life as a farmer or fisherman..

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

I hope you'll still have good internet access to keep us informed of your escapades in paradise.

Plus, we need an easy way to let you know when the Bengals need you to go fishing!

My X was stationed there in Airforce and had nothing but good things to say about it.

Enjoy !

The water tastes funny when you're far from your home,
yet it's only the thirsty that hunger to roam.

There was a point in my life when I was called a gigalo. They were lying, but it still made me feel like I might have had something going for myself.. lol
