Hello!

Thank you for noticing and for all the PM help btw

Yes I am from Portugal, I lived in Lisbon but after some years I came back near my hometown in the most north west area. I do this treeclimb thing mostly because I have fun climbing and because once in a while I do small jobs in tight places but mostly in my own propertys.

Is good to know that there is a treework company in Algarve, I know there are one near Gaia and another in Porto which born from the need to take care of the Serralves garden/trees. Long time ago they contract a english tree surgeon to make and teach a portuguese team.

I don't know about much more companies. On the other side I do know a lot of bad pruning cases. A common practice of the local governments about the public space's trees are to just top the trees and leave almost just the main trunk , makes me sad everytime. In a extreme case, in my hometown, there is a big park near the river with lots of big platanus trees were I remember to go play after school (-+15 years ago), 6 months ago I found the trees missing. After asking a friend that work nearby who told me "some limbs were falling and was dangerous for people and the parked cars". Probably dead limbs because those trees were never pruned/cleaned. So sad.

 

edit: sorry for long post and bad engrish

btw my forum name is a famous portuguese desert.lel
